Icon2 Convince me to buy an NSX!

So i have some questions about these attractive vehicles.
Snow... how well do they do in snow and harsh weather conditions?

Obiviously it will have the reliability every honda has correct?

Also Do i buy a 1st gen or a 2nd gen and use stiffer suspension components?

Iv been obsessed with the Gtr R34 since i was 10.. because its a cheap fast reliable supercar (kinda) and it seems the nsx is about 30k cheaper with no awd and no turbo.. so their a close call for what your paying for yes? (sorry its hard to word that)

It's not the same. A gtr r34 is a great car just Mehh IMO for the price. The 30k you will save can easily be used for a turbo/supercharger, suspension, wheels, a tune up, etc. putting 30k into an NSx will make it retarded fun compared to the gtr.

IMHO, GTR's are awesome cars and you will be worshiped among all the fan boys.

If you have money for an r34 GTR, put that money to good use and buy yourself a 911.

I had a zenki NSX and it's a great car but not fast at all...AT ALL.

Buy a 911, I never regret buying one.

Definitely get a 911. NSXs are slow.

lol screw a 911 unless it's a TT they're pig slow too. For 30k you are getting a very high mileage porsche with endless RMS issues and gremlins. I have 3 friends with 996s, 997s all of them are on their 2nd motor and the other on his third after constant RMS issues at the track blowing motors.

If you have the budget for an nsx and have some money for mods on the side you could easily get the car too where you want it for relatively cheap. Since it seems like you have 30k to spend and some money on the side. You could always bolt on a SOS kit or a turbo kit and have the power that it is missing

Nsx in the snow sounds like a disaster lol. Maybe you should get an s2000 and a beater if you don't have the money too have 2 cars I definitely wouldn't drive it in the snow or harsh weather.

Based on your post, it doesn't seem like the NSX is the right car for you.

The NSX is nothing like the GT-R. If you're obsessed with the Nissan, buy that. I had dreamt of owning an NSX for over a decade before I was finally able to land one. I'm sure you will be much happier with the Nissan.

I concur. It sounds like you would be able to get much more enjoyment out of another kind of car.

I think the real question here is why shouldn't you get a NSX. If I could I would have them all.

If you need convincing, the NSX is probably not for you.


Get a GT-R and call it a day.
