just like 8uviper, I currently own both NSX and Supra tt, i would like to provide some feedback if i may..


First of all, i would have to say i love them both.  And i can not really tell you which one i like better.  It is like your sons or daughters, they are their personality & their own traits..


Remember, this is NSX forum, most feedbacks i read here are are very biased.  Not very fair at all..  eg. style (apparence of a car) is in the eyes of beholder..  and Supra is NOT a merely drag car, come on.  People think Supra is only a drag car because of its hp/tq, and it tends to leave heavy impression for its acceleration ability.  Most fellow supra owners that i know do a lot more than just drag race.  I use it for other stuffs.. like geocery shopping, carring more than 2 people, etc.  Can you do that with your NSX?   :p



anyways..  My opinion:


Supra advantage: 

- 400 rwhp / 400 tq at less than $ 800 mod.  There is nothing like it when both turbos kick in.

- reliable, inexpensive to maintain.

- outstanding track car, very forgiven


Supra disadvantage:

- relatively heavy- 3,550 lbs

- king of Riceboy (thanks to all boy racer)  riceboy try you race you ALL THE TIME.. day/nite, gets really old..

- so many young kids have it now days, dont feel as special driving it.



NSX advantage:

- exotic dream car for many.

- style is for everyone, even for ppl dont know much about cars

- MR, great track car once you learn how to master MR


NSX disadvantage:

- So pricey

- expensive to mod, expensive to fix

- for a lite car, it eats tire twice as fast as supra...  OUCH


Again, to me, they are both wonderful cars.  And i am lucky to have them both.


-jjc.

93 NSX 6 spds (stock + 6spds)
