Hello all!
I'm a 01 BB6 Prelude owner and I'm soon planning to get an NSX. I've checked the site around and I felt it was time to put out some questions, also before my log in name gets taken!
My biggest dilemma is to get a less expensive 91-94 5spd non-Targa or to go ahead and try for a 3.2l 6spd Targa.
Here's what I want out of getting an nsx, and hopefully your expert peoples can help me decide :-D
-I want it for the sporty/legendary/luxury that it is!
-I know it's not the fastest sports car in the world, but speed is definitely a factor.
-I will probably put 5000 or so miles on it per year, definitely less than 10000 since I'm keeping my Prelude still.
-I will "fix it up." just some minor bolt ons, nice/clean looking kit. Just to make it "mine" and unique . Nothing RICEY!! lol
-Tires are not an issue (I work at Yokohama Tire Corp. )
-I'm young (21 this Nov LOL) so I'll probably put it as a weekend car to keep the cost down, but insurance is key as well.
-I the rare of Honda. so JDM is cool to me.
-Maintenance costs. Goods and bads. And again, it will be a weekend car I still love my prelude mucho so it's great driving that still, but an NSX was always an achievable dream!
Any info you guys can give me will definitely help! Pros and cons, real life stories, anything! I'll probably read everything posted on this thread.
Thanks everyone!
Also, I'm in SoCal (Long Beach/LA area) so if there's any local meets, let me know!
