Greetings all, this is my first post on Prime :smile: , I've been lurking here off and on for almost ten years and finally ready to join the ranks of NSX ownership.
I have always appreciated the NSX design and function and just knew that someday I would have one. Well, the time has finally come. Not sure what finally pushed me over the edge but a bit of "if I don't do it now I never will" pushed me over the edge. I became serious about ownership almost two years ago and watched many cars come up for sale and then just not pull the trigger for one reason or another, many of the cars I followed the new owners posting on here with much pride in their recent acquisition and pure joy.
So now MY adventure begins! Originally I started to seek out a 02+ in red or black... well, I am now flying out to San Diego to pick up a lovely 98 black w tan interior Sunday :smile:. And on top of that, rather than having it shipped, I am going to drive it home about 1800 miles
with my lovely companion who will hopefully still speak to me after this is all over.... This should be an interesting journey to say the least and I'm both excited and anxious trying to think of the details and getting the car, and us, home in pristine condition. I figured that I wouldn't likely ever make a trip like this again so why not use this as a great excuse to drive the countryside and see the various sites on the way home.
We should be on the road home to Nebraska starting the 12th, so wish us luck and hopefully the weather won't interfered with the travels and we make it back on time and in perfect shape.
Cheers!!
