Today about 2:00 on Keystone near the Wal-Mart. Red with red top factory wheels in the more gunmetal color. IN plates so I'm guessing local, just never seen it before. I know these threads are pointless but what can I say I'm bored, thats the most NSX action I've had in a month :tongue:

i think the red owners are snobs or something cause they never respond to these :(

for a second I was scared sh!tless when i saw your title cause my 01 spa yellow is in service at Penske Honda and thought oh SH!T!!!!!!! those b@stards better not be out for a joy ride!!!
 
Nate,

I had mine out about that time on Keystone from 96th to 146th. But then again, you've seen mine and I don't think my wheels match your description...

Did it have the wheels that kind of looked like Zanardi rims?? I met another NSX owner a few days ago named Hal that has a red with red top 1991 NSX with dark gunmetal wheels that look like Zanardi wheels but are not. Might have been him.

At least someone will be driving it. :wink:
 
When I was at Ed Martin Acura Tuesday I saw (2) Formula Red NSX's, (1) Berlina Black NSX, and my Grand Prix White NSX. I also spotted a VW Phaeton with a less than happy owner..... ;)

holly sh!t dude!!!! you were in heaven!!! what was with the phaeton owner??

they said it should be done fri or mon, so if that solves the problem we're gonna go for a ride in a week or two :D

based on your other post with your ride with your boss at 140mph it should be a blast!!!.....we can play "keep up" or something :D

....oh wait :( i have the wind problem at 120+, but thats just a window allignment thing that can be done anytime :)
 
One of the red’s that Mitch saw was mine. It was in having the main targa seal replaced under warrantee (thanks to some previous posts here) when the tech BROKE the driver window switch while adjusting the seal. The Phaeton was also mine. That’s what I drove down so I could inspect the damage. I picked it up the next day (11/22) coving the path I listed above.

As I recall, the white owner was a little besides himself. Seemed he had some damage to the front lip and bumper. Hope that turns out OK …

Oh and I’ll try to be more snobbish in the future. I didn’t know I had a color repuatation to maintain!

LOL!! Yeah...it was one of those days for me. That front spoiler is coming off this weekend though and the OEM one is going back on for the winter. All in all though it is all part of the game of life I guess. :)

whealy....your car looks amazing with those wheels on it. It gives it an entirely different attitude than the OEM wheels. How long are you going to keep driving it? I am going to try and get a couple of locals together to grab a bite to eat and enjoy the cars for a bit if you are interested. Let me know! :D
 
Well I've been working over the holidays and then down to TN to see the family over the weekend so never had a chance to reply to my own thread! No, Whealy it definitely wasn't your car, if it was I would've waved. Though you'd probably be too stuck up to acknowledge the guy in the Integra :biggrin: .

Glad to see everybody else is still out there alive and kicking if not wrecked in some way or another. I almost joined all of you in the body shop a couple of weeks ago. Hit a wet spot going around that curve on 65 just north of downtown. Right before the Meridian exit where the road is two lanes with barriers on either side. Just happened to be in 2nd accelerating hard at the time :eek: Note to self, 'Don't be an idiot' Hope everybody had a good holiday, see you around.....

Oh yeah, I meant to mention; If any of you have any interest the Sears Hardware store on 86th and Ditch is going out of business. I was there last week and most tools were 10-25% off. The woman said the discounts would go up after Thanksgiving. Just an FYI

I always wave at Integra drivers… they are almost always female. Totally kidding! Glad to know you still remember my car …

Mitch - As for getting together, as long as the Holiday schedule allows it, I’d be in. And thanks for the compliments on the wheels … although you may want to look closer …

And as for Ed Martin … they broke my power window button replacing the seal??? WTF ??? Oh well at least both were replaced under warrantee. So for those of you that saw the big rip (David I know you did), it’s finally gone.

You're hilarious. Cough cough(dick)cough cough I guess its true what they say about NFR drivers:tongue:

I forgot to mention the Ed Martin thing. I don't care if they do fix it, it still would have pissed me off. Oh well, stuff happens I guess.

Mitch, you organizing some kind of get together? I'm in if it falls within the next few weeks. I'll actually be at home till the 22nd. Ah, the advantages of working for a bankrupt company! :rolleyes:

Glad to hear you got that fixed.

Are you ready to take your NSX out for some donuts tonight in the snow? :biggrin:
 
No ... That's what the Phaeton is for. But I might wash the NSX tonight! :D

Seriously, I don't plan on putting the NSX away for the winter, but I certinaly don't want to get it out in several inches of snow.
