Walked an NSX!

Well I had just gone to pick up a Grand Am from another lot at work, when my coworker and I spot a beautiful black NSX. I pull up, rev the engine, and then let loose. I get a beautiful chirp from the tires, 1st gear, chirp them again in 2nd, and let off as I make the shift to 3rd....I nail my flashers because I'm WAY AHEAD. I'm talking bus lengths....but it probably had something to do with the fact that it was parked and lacked a driver.

Just thought I'd share my spotting with you guys...as it's only the 2nd I've actually seen in person.

yeah nsx are definitly sex on wheels. well i burned a SL65 AMG two nights ago on foot, it was parked in front this russian bar. it probrably belongs to the russian mob. the guy comes out and just gases alittle and the rear got all squirmy. he went the opposite direction of us, but when we got to our deli, he was right in front of us waiting at the light!! around that area in queens, theres only one other route to that store if you want the opposite way, and thats like a 2 mile route. it was crazy.

Re: Re: Walked an NSX!

Neat...

Saw a 300zx last night that revd up to 9k an shook the block I couldnt even breathe it actaully hurt how loud it was. He had dual catless angled exuasts. I swear it sounded like a damn V8 I didnt here any turbo . An S2k that was messing around at the light as well with a 350 with exhaust. The s2k took it up to 10k an droped it at the light. It was neat. I was in starbucks looking at the Stradale across the street...

NSX = Overrated.

Rare though.

it's not exactly slow in a straight line either. but definately an awesome car, and the styling is A+ I usually get to see about 2 or 3 a month, rarely the same ones though which is kinda weird. I usually see them with my GF and am like Look! and she promptly replies with how it's not cute

Re: Walked an NSX!

Well....what would make a car overrated??
Price. I was 3x more than it should have been.
At the time, the car was badass. Hell, it still is for the most part. But not for what they ask pricewise.

And personally, I don't care for the look.
