I just saw this car for sale while browsing around. It might be worthwhile to note the vin# under the FAQ for famous owners.

Thanks.

Maybe Rick Mears' wife... he would never buy an automatic sports car. :smile:

I love the manual tranny, but didn't Senna own an auto NSX? Either way I'm pretty sure he'd kick all our butts at the track with it.:smile:

I would hope it was not Rick's driver....being an Indy car champion and buying an automatic sports car just seems wrong. :frown:

 

[ChitownNSX]

Agreed. I daily with a stick and could not see it any other way!

agreed, real men drive manual trans.

I agree too, but after owning three consecutive manual sport cars I wanted some additional option or even both, that was why I ended up with 1996 auto w/ sport-shift. Any auto before 1995 will not be too actractive for ex-manual guys, unless daily driving in traffic. So far I've enjoyed the sport shift option, especially around twisting roads, sometimes manual shift cars could not keep up with me.:biggrin:
I have seen this car in person, very clean and has all critical upgrades. I would recommend for anyone who's looking for an auto sport car.

Otto,
How was the gathering last Friday at automall. Mine is sitting duck waiting for the aluminum cooling tank to arrive, my plastic tank gave up after this past cold week. Hopefully I can join the Friday meetings soon.

I also checked out this car and it drives very well. My wife said to buy it but I wanted a manual trans. The HRE wheels and lowering really looks nice. Probably hard to navigate in and out of driveways. The paint is great and looks well cared for. Ivory interior is beautiful.
