NSX-R GT (5cars) the Key to é NSX's brilliance lie in 3 things Weight & Power to weight ratio Aero dynamics & drag co-efficient Balance via a Mid-ship layout Dude, the M-Specs were the luxury editions, not the hardcore ones. Even the M-Spec Nur (there was an M-Spec before that) is a full leather seats and creature comforts car. The V-Spec V-Spec II and the V-Spec Nur is what u should be considering.

The video looks good what Isuru gave us but like Ashan says its "two cars with diffrent reputations". The NSX is a pretty damn nice car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

U don't even compare the V Spec I with the V Spec II. I think that was that upgrade too. I am suprised at what u say tho. True, the equivalent M Spec were released after the V Specs, but even then the V Spec is supposed to be the "Victory" Spec, so if a M Spec Nur is faster than a V Spec Nur ...

(i think nsx is slower) but because nsx was an extra special car (in subjective terms)... for me nsx is not a numbers car. ... ) however ferraris/lambos/pagani's are even more special cars in subjective terms too... all in all i agree wit what tiff says when he compares nsx and supra. for me... but if i were to have enuf money, i'd still buy none of them. (may explain why i dont have the money too ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devinda_Z Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 Nissan's dominance is hardly suprising gieven that they've got a whole continuous development thing going on with their Motorsports division & performance car production as w whole but the Real HERO is Toyota - if u noticed throughout the entire JGTC series Toyota have had only the SUPRA in é 500 - & with that single model they've won more than any other single model - the biggest mistake if Toyota ever made1 was to stop Supra production!! so yet again Toyota comes out as the unsung Hero!

NahoY Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Hi all - the KF series Red NSX is still around - it's parked in the crescat car park (the apartment car park) so I guess the guy lives there. Looks quite smart, I didn't realise the car had been in an accident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
