It was the first Japanese super car to run the ring in the 7 min range naturally aspirated.
For a car designed in the late 80s early 90s it's pretty damn impressive.
It's the main reason Ferrari and other super car manufacturers upped their quality. The nsx looked the part and started up every morning without a hesitation.
If the damn near perfectly geared tranny isn't good enough for how about a chassis made completely out of aluminum when weighed without any suspension arms or body panels (just the chassis) weighed in at 450 lbs. It also felt like it was cut out of a single piece of aluminum.
Not worth $30k? Probably closer to $50k.
Sorry for the harsh reply. I love the NSX, after my first time driving it; it changed my view on cars forever. It's really a helluva car.

the r chassis makes a great race car set up properly there arnt many cars that can keep up with it. As great as the new gtr is it dosnt stand a chance against a properly tuned r33-34 and it's been proven many times already. Anyway unless your in donnies position I wouldn't want to import a skyline unless I'm making it a dedicated racecar.

He will find a Japanese girl who looks and acts the most white out of them all. That or she'll be so damn hot that he cant help but have a fortune cookie. Or in this case, damn, I cant think of a Japanese desert. Mochi would just be a horrible description for a hot chick.
Someone help me on this one here!
