If you ask me, the 3rd gen RX-7 is preferable to the NSX as a sportscar, and it's much cheaper. Not as reliable, though :P

My bad.. last year.. 14 NSX were sold.. this year.. they've more than doubled..around 30+!!! Still..that's really low.. Honda didn't make this car to sale..it's that simple.. Especially in the US Market.. this car job is to boost Honda's Image in the sports racing world..

Admittedly, even with the production numbers I looked up, it's obvious the NSX is a relatively low production number car (especially in the later years) so you have made your point. Oddly enough, I still see a lot of them driving around here.
I think even if Honda made more NSXs, they wouldn't sell, as the NSX is one of the worst performance values on the market today.

People really should become more aquainted with a car before trashing it. I think it boils down to jealousy personally. I think a lot of the muscle car guys are getting very intimidated by our little 4-cylinder's capabilities.

Ignorant people make my head hurt.

Well I will say it wasn't pretty. I missed a shift against one of them and STILL won...but it was close. So after the race he was like, "let's go again...i almost had you." So we went again and this time i didn't miss a shift and KILLED him...he didn't stop off afterwards that time to say anything...
