Yeah I guess I should of mentioned I never really liked the 2002+ model design and dont' really want a T model as well hence only early model NSX or the RARE NA2 hard tops would fit my dream.... I guess I fell in love with the original not the new one..

In that case, that should be your dream. A pre 2002 NSX, coupe if possible. Dreams gives you a reason for taking action. Quoting Suzy Orman "You are what you think. Thoughts becomes habits. Habits becomes action. Action becomes reality." Hang in there.:smile:
A wise man once said that if you do not have a dream then you could not make a dream come true.
I have wanted a NSX since 1991 and thought for years that I would never be able to afford one. Like most people, family and other small things take priorities. I turned 44 in June this year and bought a '91 with 45,000 km. It took me 16 years.
Ditto, except mine is a 97 with 12.8k miles, and was purchase in January of this year.:smile:
Alright... I have been a non-registerd lurker on this forum for the last five years. Reading this post today inspired me to finally register so I could lend some positive encouragement and add some of my own personal perspective.
Like most on this board I have been inspired by and obsessed with the NSX since I saw it at the 1991 Chicago Auto Show. I stood there for no less the 4 hours watching this masterpiece of design and human achievement slowly rotate on it's pedestal. I knew that one day... no matter what, I would experience the thrill of ownership.
Fast forward to 2007. I am 31 years old. Since that day at the auto show, I've had many ups and downs in my life. struggled with heaps of debt, a belly-up business and many other setbacks. The idea of owning the NSX has to this day kept me on the straight and narrow. When life was doing it's best to convince me that I would never get here, I would tighten my resolve and dig in with both hands and pull myself up and along.
Resolve is everything. If you convince yourself that there is simply no way you can fail, you will subconsciously begin to make decisions that affect a positive outcome. The more aggressive you are with this process, the faster you can realize your goal.
Personally I do not own an NSX. However after 16 years of fighting to get here... I am roughly 12-16 months away from being able to purchase one from a financially stable position. Trust me, there are some days when I never thought I'd be this close.
Don't get hung up on the metrics friend... Just tighten your grip and go get your dream car. It'll be there when you're ready.
Love your attitude. Looks like you borrow a page out of Robert Kiyosaki's book - Rich Dad, Poor Dad. Instead of saying "I can't afford it" , you are asking yourself "how can I afford it?" That is positive thinking and it will empower your mind regardless of the NSX. A NSX is just a car (metphorically speaking), but your positive attitude will stay with you for a life time. Hope your postive thinking pans out in near future.:smile:
