I Finally bought the car of my dreams!!!
And I am speechless....
This car shall never be replaced.
I have never bought a car that I a so anxious to get in that I actually want to write the check all over again.. and again...and again... every... single...time i walk up to it.
this car will never be replaced... ever... forget "never say never" I said never.
This thing is so damm fast with the 4.23 gears and E/H/I.
I have test driven about 6 NSX's and thank god this one is mine. Honestly I feel fortunate.
Flew down to Tampa FL and drove back. Dave who sold the car to me for some odd reason. I think he will soon become overwhelmed with sellers remorse and become a crazed stalker. He is a absolute prime example of a rare breed honest individuals. After he picked me up from the airport 45min from his home at 7pm on Friday, Our plans were to take a quick look and test drive that night than a more elaborate test drive saturday morning. First when the garge door opened my jaw dopped and next a permanent ear to ear grin that has not dissapeard 6 days later. I had nightmares about dave changing his mind overnight. Thats how much I wanted to drive home 1100 miles. And man 1100 miles of feeling like im playing a video game. between F1 sounding exhaust and ride position, the super comfortable Bride seats and the momo steering wheel. This was like 18 hours of Sony PS2 Grantourismo. Even got 3 harley bikers gawking and qustiong about it with tons of compliments in Georgia that was never expected especially from Harley biker guys. Not to mention the faces on little kids starring out back windows it is greatest feeling to see the huge smile on young kids 10-14yrs old, its amazing they go blank and just stare.... than they scream.... Grantourismo!!wile pointing franatically!!!.... Its great!!! Theres nothing like making little kids smile its beautiful.
The ride is uncomparable. And my test of it true appreciation showed up 6 days before my flight; I have have always wanted to replace my Estoril Blue BMW M3 that I had a couple years ago before any type of nsx experience. And what do yo know the rarest of all Estoril Blue with Modena Natural Interior shows up 20min away so I imediatly went to test drive it with cashiers check in hand. Georgeous car in mint condition absoluty perfect. The test drive unfortunatly was plain sports car:frown:. I had not hit me that once you have sat in a true Mid-Engine supercar. A sports car will lose its appeal forever.
And I can honestly say once you have driven an NSX the definition of Sports car is permanently biased. Numbers and comparisons no longer hold weight comparisons to other cars become pointless, BMWs, P-cars, Dodge, Vette, whatever. All pointless comparisons. The answer to all these comparisons is... It is not just performance numbers it is an entirely diffrent road feel and control of the numbers. You can NOT replace a MR car with a 1/sec faster 1/4 mile you can't replace a MR car with a price tag, and deffinatly not with a status symbol. an NSX is in whole diffrent class of cars and where other cars of its class are faster and 3 times the price and maintnace, in the pool of $150k+ cars... I can proudly comment I am proud of owning the slowest in my class at 13.2 1/4mi :biggrin: its god damm fast enough and people who dont think so probably have never driven a reliable, go kart handeling, 13sec car. probably because the only thing in out there to fill that catergory is the NSX.
It holds the road like nothing I have ever driven. It corrects itself.... overthrow it into corner just for giggles and it slips out the rear for just a sec before almost gripping itself back with almost no effort. it is truly amazing. the sceam of the exaust with no cats is music to my ears. I want to sleep in the damm thing and buy 10 more. Thats all I can say.
Im obsessed.:biggrin:
