Cool, I can honestly say I've never seen a white one in town. NSX's are sweet, timeless design. Car could come out today and still look current, only exotic car you can own with the same reliability as (And I mean no disrespect) a Honda Accord.

Please excuse me for getting off topic, I can talk cars all day long.

No disrespect taken, actually a proud claim to fame. But if you think about, it must be better than the Accord. Honda hand picked their best mechanics and assemblers from their manufacturing lines to work at a new plant to hand build their "flagship" vehicle entry into the exotic sports car market. It may be sold in America under the Acura logo, but all NSX owners are proud to call their car, a Honda. In fact, some go the point of exchanging the Acura symbols with the Honda one. They are interchangeable. I know of a couple >300,000 miles and still original engine and tranny with no signs of needing to be rebuilt.

heheh I call red cars - "decoys". love it when they wiz by on the freeway cause you know the cops gonna go after them for doing 100, while we get to putt along at 80 heh

Ain't that the truth. Whenever I'm cruising at a comfortable speed and I see someone pass me quickly, my thoughts are , any cop behind me now is either after him, or they aren't around, and he is definitely going to clear out the ones in front of me.

My cousin has one of the first NSX's produced and he's still driving it. I have no idea how many miles he has on it, but it must be almost 20 years old, so there must be a lot. He LOVED driving it, so it definitely got some good use.

1991, first year of manufacture. Mine's a '92, picked it up used in 2000 with low miles.
2005 I think was the last year of manufacture.

"I had ordered a steak rare. It arrived well done. I can be lenient, if it had had any pink, i probably wouldn't have said anything, but as it was 100% brown in the middle, I couldn't not speak"

I'm sorry they jacked up your medium rare steak. I used to work at applebees in Folsom as an expeditor.

As I said, it taught me a lesson, and not just for Applebee's. I no longer order steaks at any restaurant that isn't a steak house, it just isn't worth it.
