02+ Silverstone spotted in the rain at Costco yesterday

[Joy2Drive]

It was quite rainy yesterday and I was surprised to see anyone out shopping at Costco nevermind and in an NSX.

Saw this nice looking Silverstone driving through the Costco lot (Hwy 7 / Woodbine) looking for space. My first instinct was Gary (aka "torontonsx"). The car looks stock with lowered suspensions but enough clearance to drive over speed-bump.

Anyone here or was that Gary. Come out with it?

I think I saw that one listed at BMW Unionville last year....in the rain!?..an NSX...blasphemy!

Hey Joy2Drive, you live around the Markham area too?

Maybe he just fancy a "wash" or he just missed his drive on the gorgeous day before.

I live in North York but frequent the Markham Costco at least once a week. Hope to run into this car again. It was a nice one, but when are you coming out with your red 03?

Was out on Saturday...having some alarm issues (see the new thread that I started) and also getting the TB/WP done (getting the tensioner and valve seal gaskets replaced as well since the motors being dropped anyways...also getting new plugs). Expecting things to be sorted by Wednesday with the TB/WP job then getting the alarm replaced on Thursday so should be good to cruise by the weekend ....weather pending. Any thoughts on the alarm issue would be great if you get a chance to view the thread.

Commenting on the original post on this thread, I looked into the silverstone NSX at the BMW on Kennedy and Hwy 7. I was told the owner traded it in for an M3... I couldn't understand that. How do you trade a rare, beautiful car like the NSX and pick up a car that's seen everywhere...and depreciates in value a lot faster too...
