Thanks,

The truck was a modded Lightning. 430 rwhp and 518 ft./lbs. After 4 years it was time for a change. Plus, that thing went nowhere in the snow and the NSX doesn't even see rain.

Aw, a nice dad like mine... though, it was his S2k I drove to high school, not an NSX or an Evo... If you're into tracking the cars, get ready for lots of fun when he turns 16.. My dad and I race like crazy, his S2k is Super Charged and putting down ~400whp on a Mustang dyno... and I've got my Evo, it's tons and tons of fun, when both cars are working properly!!! Way to go on buying an Evo.. one question: Which do you like better overall?

First congrats on the new purchase...
But now owning both the NSX and the MR, how do the two compare. If you found yourself on a Saturday with nothing to do what would you take out for a drive?

Just to go on record, my 15 year old has to have me in the car with him when he drives either. He is really a good person and responsible. He is a damn good driver considering his experience level. Believe me, I understand everything about young drivers and fast cars. To my credit I totaled a 74 Z-28, 1971 240Z, 1970 TR-6 and then an early VW GTI......my first four cars. He will not drive my cars by himself for a long time. I bought him a beater 944 that we are putting back together that will be his.

Tough, question and it would probably depend on my mood. Realize that I am 40-something now and chasing women like I did in my 20s. With that in mind, I would give the NSX the overall nod. As you can imagine the NSX draws a lot of attention. It is always the "date" car when it is not raining or snowing. Here' s a picture of my trunk......
