isnt the older NSX owned by the same person who owns the H1 in kurunegala? i remember someone put up a pic of it too.. (was a bit dark though)

H1 wut??? the only H! that comes to mind is a Hummer ....dont tell me some has one of thoses here!!?

story goes that this Red Pop up light NSX was brought in on a "carnet" permit by a 30something businessman n was shipped back to the UK toward the latter part of 2005 or early 2006

Oh so that one is yours. Saw it at Uncle Asgis Garage. Should say thats the longest and most expensive Garage I have even seen. I guess almost 40-50 cars with some old war time bikes as well.

Devinda,

Just to inform you bro.... "this" NSX is in Sri Lanka...in Colombo- 03 to be exact..even TODAY...gathering dust and sealed away in a lonely Garage! The owner is in Australia apparently and is planning to get another NSX imported (according to his dad). He also owns one of the few 300ZX (Twin Turbo) versions in the Country too. I'm refering to the Red car. I saw BOTH these cars with my own eyes, parked at their garage., and took the liberty of speaking to the proud owners father, who was a Gentleman.

Also I read someone saying there is another 300XZ (Twin Turbo) in NEGOMBO? ...funny, I live in Negombo and I have never seen a 300zx there....kinda interested to know who the owner is ... so all in all I guess there are only "two" NSX s? The older (manual transmission) car and the new (automatic transmission) NSX... but hey...who knows...afterall this is Sri Lanka...where crazy S**t goes down, when it comes to cars!

Cheers,

-A

OMG such a shame those cars r meant to be driven!! on a sunday@least!

ah so this is é Meew*lla Group isnt in?

@Fuzzo-that ZX has a new high rear wing added & supposedly the clutch & suspension arms had been replaced.

also note the Stillen rear bumper lip

the owner is in town these days i'm guessing cuz the Red ZX has been spotted on the move n is no longer in the garage!

also interesting to not the Levin in there - is that an AE92 ?? -never gotten close enough to see..

as for the Silver 300zx machan - i met the owner personally@ A*W - he's into dealing in car parts...i cant quite remeber his name,but will try get u his exact location sometime

but the car is deffa in Negombo n i've had a very comprehensive look@the car - TT , Auto , 18" 5 spoke rims , Stillen slotted front intake cover(between the headlights - for added air flow&looks ) , HICAS & LSD

he had his presure plate replaced that day

running on English no's - NW if i'm not mistaken..

but since this picture was taken (as posted on the old forum) he's added a bunch of stickers 300zx on the side n some on the bonnet&rear windscreen

Nice car but the mods are kinda Hit-and-Miss don't ya think? Love the front intake cover (put one on yours ) but IMHO (and this is just my view) the Alloys don't suit the car, and that wing just looks Daft...... and honestly m8, STICKERS???? i mean come on........

Thats the new NSX with automatic transmission....know a lot of people who claim to see the car parked at a place close to my house in Negombo.

eh? I thought it was based somewhere in Mt. Lavinia - Ratmalana - Moratuwa. Seen it in the general area of my place a couple of times. Tho not recently.

this is the picture i was referring to..took this at pannala.....pls note my extensive skills in MSpaint (in removing his license plates)

yeah the silver pictured here is a Twin turbo but its an Auto...

its no newer than the others cuz the final yr of manufacture for the Z's was 1996 sans the special edition limited aniversary run done in 1999-but none of those cars ever made it here

few differences between the cars - eg : Alloys , spoilers & exhuast

just to add to what Supra_Natural said

the second silver one he mentioned is possibly that Green car - but from what i hear it was in a nasty accident somethime ago...

also i met the 1st owner of that Green car n from what i gather it was a Manual NOT auto - will confirm that l8r...theres also some talk that this once Green car or another altogether has surfaced in Panadua/Moratuwa & is said to be Black/Blue!! - all heresay

theres also another addition to that list -

GUN METAL : Clement's old car with someone@D*alog

all the 8 known cars around are 2+2 seaters bar yours truly's pride n joy

@Rily : pics of ZX's availabe on Preveens fotopic site & on the AL Gallery - ref. Nismo meet & Super car meet

@Fuzzo : thanx for the pic - didnt mean to use without givin the owner his dues

Peri the car is in Col...it comes to Negombo almost everyday...and heads back towards Col in e eves....guess the respective owner has some interest in Negombo.

Saw the car today in the morning, i dnt whether you guys noticed but the new NSX has got blackish/dust gold rims now...looks pretty decent.

Yep..if I recall correctly the car had the original rims even last week....I noticed the new rims this morning...have to admit, the car looks hot

such a shame its a 4speed auto - that also means its got only the 3.0 as opposed to the 3.2 Vtech available only with the mnual 6 spd

only 265bhp - so quite simply this car is all abt the handling

But Devinda...it 'is' a NSX....and a NSX, no matter what..will 'always' be a name to be respected...
