I got my FIRST experience driving the NSX today!
(What are you thinking?!)
I had the pleasure of meeting Khuezee at lunch just talking about cars and the NSeX.
Then going back to work, I happily slid into the F1 cockpit. My first impression of the layout was it felt similar to an Integra. It's nice to have that sense of familiarity. When I pressed down on the pedals, I noticed it was pretty cramped down there too. Not really friendly for size 12 feet. This will take getting used to but it took only a few minutes to get the hang on it. I immediately noticed the slight difficulty of maneuvering inside a cramped parking lot without powersteering but the handling was great at higher speeds.
I was driving slow and carefully when Khuezee turns to me and says, "why don't you downshift and rev it? You're not going to break it." I had to laugh because I was afraid I would get into an accident or something. But, I gladly complied and revved it a couple of times. That engine was pure Mozart. Music to my ears.
Anyways, thanks again Khuezee for being cool about letting a stranger drive your exotic. I'm not so sure I would be so friendly if people ask if they can drive mine (when I finally get one).
