While shopping for a used M3 or 997 911, I came across this 2000 GPW NSX with tan interior and it had roughly 33k miles. From the pictures and description, the car is in great condition and has all the mods I would do had the car was stock. It is a complete Comptech package car with a supercharger/brembo BBK and other goodies like coilovers, BBS LM wheels and others. It is perfect. Also, I love white cars as we all know that white is the fastest color out there 
Well I just got my NSX delivered on friday. I purchased the car from Brian(SOURCENSX). Just took it out for a spin on saturday and got it smog checked, and it passed with flying colors. I used to have an E36 M3 and although the NSX and E36 has similar weight (3100 lbs), the NSX doesn't feel as "heavy" as the M3. With the low boost supercharger, the car has plenty power for me on the road and I certainly don't need more. The car goes into corners like it's on rails. The car came with a coilover suspension and it is so low that I managed to scrap almost every driveway or dips on the surface roads. I will have to raise it up an inch to make it a bit more driveable. The roads here around San Diego are pretty bad. Too many bumps and dips and the road surfaces are horrible.
I think the tint is too dark for California law. I will have to remove it and installed very light tint on both windows to avoid being harassed by the cops. I will leave the rear window dark as is as I don't think it's illegal to have really dark tint on the back.
The car does have some minor things that annoy me. First, it has a sorry of a cupholder. The cupholder is located slightly right behind the driver and it's hard to reach back to grab a cup or bottle. Second, the brake pedal and the clutch pedal are located too close to each other. I found myself step on the clutch when I wanted to brake a couple times. Third, the 6th gear are right next to the Reverse gear. Would it be possible to mistakenly shift from 5th gear to Reverse? Is there something built-in to prevent the "money" shift? Other than that, the car has exceeded my expectation. One more gripe although it's not Honda's fault: the brembo BBK has silver calipers instead of red or yellow. For a white car, red calipers would look great. The original owner wanted silver. Why silver calipers?
The first 3 pictures are mine after the car is delivered. The rest of the pictures are from Brian in his for sale thread.
Below is the link describing my buying experience in the vendor section. I highly recommend him to anyone who are thinking of dealing with him in the future.
