Lightbulb My dream Car.

My dream car would have to be an NSX. Love Honda even though i drive a 91 toyota cressida. V-Tech is almost as great as sex on a beach boys!!

i think this should be in the cars i love/cars i hate section... with that being said...

yes the nsx is a beatiful car... my dad's co worker bought one and let me ride arround in it and drive it a bit... couldnt get enough of it definately the best handling car ive been in.. if i could aford it, it have one

idk about the "affordable but fast"

its definately not affordable and its not the fastest either for its price... that would be more like a z06 imo

Even though the NSX is nice, its way too overpriced for what it is. $90k for 290hp/224tq, no thanks. Even though I dislike Chevy, the Z06 Corvette is the best choice for an "affordable yet fast" car.

My dream car thats actually affordable? Hmm..1998 Nissan Skyline R33 GTR

Re: My dream Car.

Yeah agree on the whole expensive nsx!
The Subaru Leagacy GTB puts out just about the same amount hp at 280hp and you can pic one up for around the $15 000NZD price rather than the $120 000NZD price for the Nsx
My dream car would be the Godzilla, they're sex on wheels lol
But i own close enough to my affordable dream car with the GTST! lol

I laughed so hard I almost cried. They cost $90,000 new and they have horrible depreciation. I can think of a ton of other cars that are a hell of a lot more affordable that would whip the NSX.

Really, so what car under $90k could "whip" an NSX if both are in stock form? Let me guess, a Corvette Z06 that everyone gets so hyped up about...

Yep I'd say the '06 Vette Z06 could whip a NSX for $25k less.
NSX: 290HP 0-60 in 4.8 secs 1/4 in 13.2@106 .93g skidpad
Z06: 505HP 0-60 in 3.6 secs 1/4 in 11.7@125 .98g

Scource: Car and Driver
Now I realize that dosen't say too much about handling but considering I've heard quite a few comparisons between the Z06 to the F360 so I'm sure it handles just fine.

Great, another unbiased post brought to you by ludespeed!

I don't know if you've ever seen a great show called Top Gear. Well, they take cars and drive them around their test track that was designed by Lotus. Their driver is a professional race driver and he is the only one that sets the times. This couldn't be a more fair comparision. Now I have marked next to the cars that I am pretty sure cost less than the NSX with an asterix and the NSXs time is in bold. And even though it is not on this list, yes, if the regular C6 is faster then the C5 Z06 would kill the NSX. Get off your high horse. I'm not saying it is a bad car, I'm just saying that it is no where near worth it's price. Hell, there are a lot of cars on the list that are faster than are less than half the cost.

Pretty sad if you ask me.
