NSX looks like a toy car next to Tacoma

Every time I see an nsx in person I can’t help but comment on how small they are. Great looking cars though.

 

I always noted next to just about any truck that your eye level is usually right at the top of their tires. Sweet ride. Miss mine all the time.

 

One of my favorite cars. Ive only seen one or two in person

 

My s2000 is even smaller then the nsx. I would love to have an NSX one day

 

Yeah, pretty rare to see one. I met up with 4 other NSX owners in RI a few years ago, seeing 5 NSX's parked together drew a lot of attention.

 

Yeah I bet

 

That's what's awesome about them. The "rarety".... It was like driving a UFO in this one horse town. No one could believe it's age.

 

Here's a better pic of mine, it's a 91 which was the first year for the 1st gen's. I have owned it for 8 years, 69K miles, 5-speed, all stock except for rims and exhaust. NSX's really jumped in value with the the re-release of the new NSX's in 2017. It is worth about twice what I paid for it.

 

What is the value on a car like that? Just curious

 

They started at $156K new!!

 

~ $50K, they went new for $61K in 1991. I paid $25K for it 8 years ago, good investment.

 

Second gen yes... First... 60K - 65K in '91.

 

Sorry, I was talking about a 2018 -

2018 Acura NSX
Luxury vehicle
MSRP: From $156,000
Horsepower: 573 hp
MPG: 21 city / 22 highway
Curb weight: 3,803 lbs
Engine: 3.5 L V6
Dimensions: 176″ L x 87″ W x 48″ H

 

I had a 78 VW Scirocco that looked like a toy when parked next to a Geo Metro.

 

My '79 RX-7 was probably smaller than the NSX! It was only $10K!

 

id love a nsx

 

NSX are great cars. My dad had one growing up which I was able to take out from time to time. Really enjoyed driving it.

 

Love the NSX, it has aged wonderfully. I consider it the pinnacle of simplicity, beautifully engineered and only as complicated as it needed to be. All the tech these days does nothing for me. This and the S2000 were the last great driver's cars Honda built with an emphasis on the direct driver/car connection. Thankfully, Mazda still seems to understand that. Beautiful cars posted, jealous.

 

I miss owning my S2000. Fun little car.
