The car was delivered this morning!!! Overall its in excellent condition, it feels and drives like a 25k mi car. I'm really loving the supercharger. The car pulls hard from as low as 2000rpm. Have a TON of stuff to do this car. First is to change out the chrome wheels and remove the tint.

This thread needs to be sent to the product planners at Acura, look what type of response the original NSX gets from the enthusiast community. Congrats again on the beautiful car!

and then look at how nsxprime itself is treating the "upcoming nsx"

the original nsx is just.... legendary. i honestly think it carries that much more status and prestige in it than supra, skyline, and fairlady

Honda doesn't listen to their customers.
They tell us what's good for us

They also told us the crossturd was pretty

Back to our regular show with the NSX and it's arrival
