I would definitely drive one around.

I wouldnt get rid of my Fd to do it though.

TheHonda aint gonna pull enough ***** to make it worth getting beat by a vette and getting called a *****.

it probably won't happen...maybe it's just a phase...i just think they are so sexy...throw a s/c on it and u're pushing 400hp...anyone who says it's "still a honda" is sorely mistaken...i don't see accords being hand assembled by a team of less than 20 highly trained technicians...

LOL Gotta love that "Throw on a turbo" idea. Since it's OH SO easy and only costs as much as a trip to McD's!



I don't care if Carrol Shelby built it himself with his glasses ON...I just think its a pretty penny to pay for such a setup. Rear view sucks @$$ too!



BTW- I don't see many FD's with doors falling off, fenders flying away, or dashes that never work...

A car doesn't need forced induction to go fast and there are merits to leaving the turbo's off, just look at formula 1, they're not turbocharged and they're making 800bhp from a 3litre engine. Getting power by way of variable valve timing and well balanced internals is in no way inferior to slapping on a turbo, so please don't be so crude as to say that a NSX isn't a supercar because it has vtec.

i for one never said that, i just said an nsx is a honda.



personally i think he should get rid of the fd for something with more interior comfort and same performance abilities.

get an MR2
they look better and respond to mods very well.. And Whoever the **** said Mid Engine Rear Drive Platforms aren't for drag racing... What the **** do you think happens to the rear of a car when you launch? IT SQUATS! and where is the engine? In the rear giving the REAR tires added traction.. Go back to ****** Skool

he uses it as a daily driver until the snow comes and loves it.

He has had plenty of fast cars including a ZR-1, GN, Mustangs

car to drive hard he has ever come across.
He said his NSX rode smoother than a Buick regal? (GN?) That sounds a bit off to me.. hold on... ~runs off~
