he never sold it. haha he wont be putting on a pfc. they either dont make those for fcs or they are very rare. he doesnt want to put that much money into it anyways. thats the main reason he wants to sell it. my bro just told me about a tII in longview though. he said he was gonna find out the details and let me know. its an 89 i know that. red with black. dont know about mods he was gonna find out. the miles were kind of high but im suspecting a rebuild. ask me about this one later.

The four-cylinders are single turbo, V8s (much rarer) are twin turbo



J
cool.

They used to all be a turbo 4 cylinder but a few years ago they ditched the 4 and replaced it with a small v8 twin turbo that fits in the same space. V8 is just newer, not any special option or anything. I think that you can still buy a new one for under $100k, which makes me wonder why anybody with that kind of money to spend would ever buy an NSX.
Yea, for $100K.. I'd probably go with something besides an NSX.. 911 twin turbo for me..

First of all it is a girl car. Major chick magnet. Their are very few of them, while every one in houston drives a turbo Porsche. And I think the biggest seller is the whole VTEC thing. PArts for an NSX arent that exspenive compared to the other cars and gets better fuel mileage.
