And Yellow Strikes Back! (coincidences with movies are merely acidental)

LMAO Tony.

I'm sorry , I didn't want it to look that way, the new guy coming in with all his glamour and goodies. I appreciate everything the both of you have done. Besides, Jerry Seinfeld had 47 Porsches the last time I heard, and TXgreenlambo dosen't make one of my favourite computer games.

As for Japan, well if it's TV's, Sake or really really tiny computers I'm all for it, but my love of cars lies somewhere between Munich and Stuttgart.


* BTW, What part of Texas are you in?

Hey Tony, I love NSX! I've driven my friends' Honda NSX, it's such a fine car. I think it's the best looking Japanese exotic, the Supra and GTR can't compared to it. Of course performance-wise, it will not be as good as the GTR. The looks just doesn't fade-off, don't u think so? Everytime is a 'wow!'. I hope to get a red NSX when I've earned enough. Lambo is still my favourite, NSX comes next. I suppose that yellow one is urs? Is it manual?

[Tony_Ensemble]

Ive been its only owner. Manual, six speed. Well, like I said I have a special place for the NSX. Good luck on the red one. Oh, I live in Dallas.


Its cool.. I was just messin' with you guys earlier. :sun:


As long as we have a yellow car thread does anyone have any other cool yellow cars pics to post?

[Porsche]

What's your thoughts on the new NSX? I saw an ad for one in DP the other day, I like it, but I'd realyl like it if there was a signifcant power boost. Any info on it?

[Tony_Ensemble]

Have haert. The new NSX is just a minor update to keep sales warm while they are preparing there very new model which is supposed to be out in 2004. According to rumor it will have over 400hp and and compete withe the 360 Modena while trying to maintain the simplicity and easy ride that its known for.

REALLY? I've heard nothing of it. Any news, pics spyshots or anything? You've gotten me all excited now to hear of another player in the high-end sports car game.

I have a concept drawing that was posted quite a while ago. I havn't heard any news from the press in a long time. But the Acura dealer tells me its in the works. Whatever that means. I will try to find the concept sketch. Personally I think it would be a hell of a coup if a Japanese car could really compete with Porsche and Ferrari.

Tony is right. There aren't much changes in tne new NSX. Changes made are the headlights and taillights. In terms performance, it is slightly faster, I think it has a sprint of 4.9secs compared to 5.5 secs of the previous model. They improved the mid-range torque too. Together with the new model, they produced the NSX Type-R. You can differentiate it by the higher spoiler and the twin 'holes' in the bonnet. The interior of the Type R is not as nice as the normal NSX, as it is made to keep the weight of the car low.

Tony, is urs Acura? I am not sure if I'm right, is ur engine a single cam? I know the Honda has a TwinCam. They say the Acura is slower than Honda. Correct me.

I like the purity of Honda that they are the one who have the best VTEC engine. Everyone else seems to follow through, like Toyota or Mazda. Both didn't do a good job. However, BMW have a technology which is very similar to VTEC, I can't remember what it's called (is it VAFC?), and it is comparable to VTEC, but still Honda is better. Any BMW fan can clarify this? S2000 has a N/A engine with a 120bhp per 1000cc. This is really an achievement.

I can't find the sketch. But I remember it looked a lot like a 360. Still maybe I'm crazy.

VANOS is its name. I used to have some literature on it but I seemed ot have lost it.

I also believe that BMW comes close to Honda's mark with the European Spec E46 M3.

there's the proof. The Bimmer's engine manages to crank out an impressive 107.18 bhp/liter, not quite the 120 Honda makes, but then again the S2000 (if that is the motor you're talking about) only makes a torqueless 240 Bhp.

Sorry If I've offended any Honda fans I have to stick up for Germany.

great article there. Yes M3 has a better torque than S2000. And I'm a Honda fan. :silly2:
