A LBBP/Onyx 2005 six speed has made its way to Michigan. Plenty of tasteful (reversible) modifications. A quality driver. We are going to have fun in 2018! CT exhaust provides the sound track.

Winter storage is where it’s at as of today - all scrubbed up, fueled, and pretty. Pity to fetch it Florida and drive it 1,267 miles home and park it today, notwithstanding 60 and sunny Nov. 28th. Good car, strong motor, good clutch feel, nice mods, and happy to own her. First saw it October NSXPO 2013, Raleigh NC. Seller is awesome and moved up to a 130R 2017 NSX (Congrats again!).

So an IOP and LBBP both - auto trans and 6 speed both. Symmetry. Perfect.

Wow Congrats Neal, respect for driving it instead of shipping. Your posts are always entertaining

 

[tbox]

Holy shit!!!!! Congrats Neal!!! :applause::applause:

Think of all the ways you can park 'em and still maintain symmetry:

Oh, and Tianbo did the Orange Blue Blue Orange combo twice (just sayin' :very_drunk

Rob, that is a fail. Neal is the self-proclaimed king of symmetry, and this car's asymmetric nature would create imbalance in the heavens.

It all makes perfect sense if viewed from the proper perspective 8^D

 

[pjr300]

Now you have symmetry.

Maybe he can do orange in the front, blue in the back. Kinda like a vehicular mullet.

RobbieM and PJR thank you to ya. :smile: Vehicular mullet and a half-breed............. yep!:biggrin:

Got 101 miles today on Imola 6 spd. Took 2017 silver NSX owner J for this ride, along with Bob _ 54 (now Lotus Evora - orange, prior early BB NSX owner). Good driving day - traffic thin, roads wide. Weather forecast is now downhill rapidly.

Maybe have a small gathering later in Dec? Interest for maybe a potluck or appetizer feed (no cool cars - just daily drivers) ?

I have an eye on Thursday evening, Dec. 28th, maybe 6-8 pm???

Two blue beauties! But you're not finished yet. You need an Orange / Black and a Blue / Tan to complete your Blue & Orange variant collection

So I am still looking at Thursday evening, December 28th. An open house type of gathering - we would do the refreshments/light appetizers - some chili and/or jambalaya (?) - near M-14 and Gotfredson Road exit. A couple of cars to look at. A potential place for much more sports car fun.

 

[NSXgal]

We are in for the 28th. Should be fun.

NSXgal:smile:

 

[alum04org]

Wowza!

This beauty looks really clean! 30 K miles, 2 owners from CA, records/books/all keys.

Great presence. Ext and interior go together so well and with the onyx footwell carpets the interior pops for me. Much preferable than a tan interior.

Found no prior record by VIN in my NSXPrime searches. I know it was first titled in California.

Reserve Auto Group, Frisco, TX, now has it listed as "deal pending" following their ask of $79977.

Whoa, Nick was right ;^D

 

[alum04org]

Hmmmmm..... kind of ugly together.

 

[sca037]

I'm just glad that yours aren't yellow, so they wouldn't both become UofM cars ;-P

 

[alum04org]

It's on!

Let's do this! Thursday evening, December 28th, 2017, from 6-830 PM. Low key open-house type of gathering.

I will send a regular e-mail to those of you who have already responded positive - it will have the address and directions. Anyone interested or that I may have missed please private message me (PM) here on Prime or shoot me a regular e-mail.

Merry Christmas to all :smile:
