Honestly, I hope the CF weave on the final production model looks better than this

The boring C7. The "Security Guard" watched me the entire time, what a pleasant experience

You will have a looker - that is for sure. IMO a dark color on this car won't do it justice, it needs to POP.

It was so nice to see it in person finally. Talking with Paul, he had talked to only a handful of people that ordered them in Canada. When I told him I had one on order he was shocked, seeing as they are getting virtually none - I am from the states!

I have to see the NSX in person. I have a feeling it's not photogenic with it's futuristic design. No picture has made it look "realistic".

the seats in the Gen V GTS look much lower than my Gen IV...very happy to see that

Yes, the seat is height adjustable and goes pretty low, eliminating the need for the seat lowering kit that some had installed in previous gens. Not a problem for me either way, I'm kinda short, LOL.

I was told that if you're short the GTS is the way to go 'cause it travels further "up" also!

And I probably have most (all?!) of you beat at 5 ft.

When I got my 94 RT10..(before adjustable pedals) they had to move the seat up for me LOL!!


And btw..I used to love the original NSX...
What did they do to it?!!!!

I have to admit, the NSX is one of the few new cars that caught my eye. That, and the Lotus Esprit concept, but I'm not sure if there is a solid plan to bring that one to fruition.

Back to the NSX- not sure about the hybrid part though- I would guess weight and other compromises would have to be made.

I don't know why car companies have to use a car's moniker and change it (the car) so drastically. I mean if you want to sell that particular car..go ahead...give it a new name all of its own. At least let the old car remain as it was in our memory and/or keep the car going with little changes so that the original car is still there just beneath the surface.

I totally agree. I don't see 1% of the old NSX in the new one......that's just wrong....
