I got to ride with a guy in his NSX at a local auto-x. thet thing had tremendeous grip.... until you reach the car's limit and then the front end would plow like a tractor. It did not recover well from the understeer either.

Then I got to Ride with Joe Dyer in his Dinan stage 100 (joke, it had stage-3 suspension, Dinan SC and Racing slicks) and that thing had so much grip, It was absolutely unbelievable. Thanks Joe!


drives like a suped up prelude. too much understeer, stock at least. beautiful engine and fun to rev, but please...$90,000 for a car that is nothing special except its styling. my friend has a 2000 model, and i am not impressed. and he traded up from a 96 M3 too. ( i don't think he's that happy with it either)


maybe i need to drive it on a track to appreciate it, but i've driven 15 year old porsches that are more fun to drive. there's nothing that compares to the feel of a german car. no cheap plastic interior pieces, or overboosted power steering.

just my opinion.
