Acura NSX Sightings

I was passed by 5 Acura NSX going on I-25 North yesterday. This car vaguely reminds me of the SVX due to the limited numbers, style, and of actual sightings in my area. It's a great looking car considering that they were put out in the early nineties. Anyone know the production years '92-'02?? Still in production? How many produced?? It also reminds me of the SVX due to the price when new. I can't quite put my finger on it but it reminds me of the SVX when I see it..Call me crazy...


I wonder what a T-top SVX would look like...

The NSX is still being produced. It received a slight change to the front-end treatment (most notably, they dropped the pop-up headlights) last year, and it's expected that Honda will show a brand-new NSX shortly.

Honestly, I've never cared for the NSX. I just can't see the point in a car that has almost half the HP of a Vette Z06, yet costs almost double. For that money, I'd buy me a Porsche or something like that.

Actually, depending on mileage and year, $35K is kinda cheap.

My neighbor up the street has an original NSX. He also has a Buick and a Volvo wagon.

I saw two on the parkway north near the east street exit in pittsburgh weaving through traffic together last friday. Maybe it's NSX season?

I should have added that I really, really dig the NSX. It's an expensive car, and may not seem like a lot of bang for the buck, but it's extremely reliable. I would love to drive one some time.

I had a lady roll up next to me at a stop light, and she yelled something to me, I turned down my radio, and said what? "NSX???" It got me for a second, but then I realized she was talking about my car. I was like "NO, it's an SVX, I wish I had an NSX!". But that was pretty cool.

I hope you mean you would like an nsx in addition to your svx. Yea, I'm sure that's what you were trying to say.
