New to NSX World

[saiji]

Hi guys/gals. Name's Saiji. I'm currently employed at American Honda Motors Inc., Co corporate office in the HR department. Senior Corporate Recruiter.

I have a 2002 GS430 LEXUS, but I miss the sport cars...so...I'm going to be picking up a 96 NSX T this weekend, or next weekend. Just glad to be a part of this forum.

I need a lot help on questions regarding the vehilcle, so I'll ask away once I get it. Thanks.

You may want to ask away before you get it. Especially on what to look for.

Make sure you are familar with this:

Wow. Working at Honda Corporate has to be a dream job for a car nut/Honda fan. Wondering what you're doing driving a Lexus??? Perhaps you just left Toyota??? Maybe you'll be able to share some insights from Honda Headquarters as time goes on.

I have the same lexus (silver 02 GS4) and a 94 NSX. You are going to LOVE driving the NSX in comparison to the GS430.

I have a gs400 as well, such a great car! Congrats on the NSX.

Congrats and enjoy the car...I use to work in building 500. Do you know Kenneth Lim? He works there too with a red/ivory NSX. I brought my black one there a few times.

awesome!! no I don't know him. I work as a corporate recruiter so I'm stuck in HR all day =( haha As for parts, if anyone needs OEM new parts, you can ask away and I'll see how much I can get it for...I'm pretty sure it's way better than going to a dealer

yeah, definately. I'll keep you guys posted on upcoming events and new info, as long as it doesn't break company policies. I do know the Vp of Product Development here so.........haha

but to answer your question, yes I was working with Lexus corporate for a bit, and moved over here just 2 months ago.

I'm deciding on picking on this one...if anyone has any inputs I will greatly appreciate it. thanks

Hey Guys. The link to the TOTALLED VIN NUMBERS doesn't seem to be working. I want to print it for my records when searching. Can someone provide me a link that works to this? Thanks.

Welcome!

Can you try to get us into the secret museum? See this http://www.nsxprime.com/forums/showthread.php?t=87448&highlight=honda+secret+museum



Also, since you are in HR, can you hire a better designer for the next generation NSX? :tongue:

Again, welcome to the forum! Do not completely trust Carfax. Call your insurance company to scan the VIN for any claims against it. Good luck on your search!
