This thread needs to be locked. Its gone a LONG way from the original idea of the post. If you had to give up your FD what reasonable car would you have... Not a big discussion on the NSX and how shitty or holy it is, or how this YZF guy is a complete douche that needs to be banned. Mods might as well shut this bitch down.

I'll confess that Scrub's post was not really him.... someone (me) hacked his account and posted up some Rustang nonsense :lol:

This thread will stay open as long as you guys can play semi-nice. Once it gets out of hand it'll get locked down. Why don't you guys just use the 'ignore' feature? Works very well.

Ok, that makes sense - I can't see someone with an FD that nice going to a Mustang

No, you can shut the fuck up.

I haven't read this whole thread so this could be a repeat comment. However, I've become a big fan of the GTR. It is probably the closest thing to a supercar that I could afford. My Nephew has one and with a few mods is making mid 500 whp and TQ. It ran a 10.9 1/4mile and they are pretty awesome on the road course... I love my RX7, especially now with a 20b but I'm always working on something like the current boost problem. I'm kind of getting in the mood for something that newer. I say that then go drive my car and see people breaking their necks to get a look at it or pull me over to see it. It is hard to beat the FD.

Saw a hot blonde crusing around in a brand new Viper yesterday - that thing is sick

Really? When I had the RX7 and was looking to buying a NSX, they went out of their way to help me.

Flaming and or Trolling is a BIG no no over there and will most certainly get you banned real quick.

I should stop over and say hi to alain - haha - is he a mod?

I haven't posted there in like 4 years but from what I remember, that's how they were..they would discredit ALL cars if it wasn't an nsx or a car most nsx owners also own besides their nsx. Sounds like a small few from this forum lol.

Interesting...what's the back story?

ALPSTA 04-17-11 06:05 PM

What's up with the questions to use search function in Nsxprime, looks like no answer will help you do a search :)

Things must have calmed down over the years. You'll get the expected bias, but one thing you won't get is hate.

From what I've seen, the majority of people are very respectful.

Like here, the majority of questions have already been asked and answered. So, using the search function is preferred.

Doesn't bother me though, sometimes searching key words can be tricky :)

Hammer... Are you EAC over there?

Gordon

Yep, that's me. :nod:

KKMpunkrock2011 04-17-11 09:07 PM

I enjoy the ignore function, REALLY useful.

Gordon, you said you bought a 66 gt350 new? Just out of curiosity, how old are you? I saw you in the pictures from the memorial last fall and I didn't think you were much over 60. No need to answer if you don't want to as I know some people don't like answering personal questions.

I got to thinking about what yfr-r1 said about some cars not being supercars after 5 or 10 years or whatever arbitrary number he threw out. I think he's got a point, it may not be a supercar anymore, but it can still be called an exotic.

The 993 is one of my favorite 911s of all time, that anthracite with the whale tale is fantastic. There's a black 993 widebody cabriole (I think its a turbo) rolling around here with a whale tale on some pretty sexy wheels. I always stop to look when I see it.

Monkman33 04-17-11 09:43 PM

As always Gordon, you bring such a sensible approach to an otherwise bicker-ridden debate.

Gordon, I know you're a big interior guy. Thought I'd show you what the NSX guys are doing to their interiors. Lots of Alcantara.
