Allright lately I been having some serious second thoughts about either selling my stunning 1996 green colbalt Z32 and buying a Honda NSX; see I saw this Honda parked in Alicante this summer and it looked beautiful now the doubts I have is...there isn´t much NSX...and also comparing the prices between Z32´s and NSX..there´s a way huge difference...but the HP is not that wide between them..why is this?? would like some experts to brifly state wich would be the good and bad about staying with my Z? or buying a NSX??

 

wich car is better? that is..mechanically..HP..ride..etc..

need help ere mateys:confused::(

NSX is reputed to be one of the most reliable 'supercars' available. I'd have an NSX over a Z32. It produces the same power as a Z32 TT but without the need for turbos. Fit turbos or a supercharger to it and you've got a serious machine.

 

They handle better and if you've ever heard one on full chat you'll know how amazing they sound.

 

They are mid engined too. I think they are a stunning car and had I not have moved house recently, would have bought one.

 

that sure is a puurrrdy machine and probably one of the few cars that won't depreciate

id love an nsx, but alas they are well out of my price range, as for turbo's and superchargers ive read that due to cooling and airflow to the mid engine its a waste of time unless you spend hooge amounts of money and sacrifice road going relaibility

Plenty of them in the US running reliable power with SC or TT

well if the us are doing it then it must be spot on lol

 

i wish i could remember where i read it now

Well, you might sneer, but the US know how to modify engines and have done so for many years.

i suppose they have 20 million bhp aswell;):rofl:

Absolutely hilarious. I laughed so hard I shat myself....

well go and wipe ya ass, be carefull though, your head may still be up there;):rofl:

Jesus wept, you're on a roll tonight!

you must consider the cost of maintenance/repairs for an nsx aswell as the availability of spares...

anyhoos, my hilarity aside, i think it was senna (or hill) who helped devolp the car and was said to have said it is the most balanced car he had ever driven(or something along those lines)

 

if you (or i) have the cash i would opt for the NSX, i think in my life i have only ever seen 4 NSX'S on the road in real life

NSX over a Zed everyday I reckon, as much as i love my Z no comparison

Was Senna who helped develop the car's handling. Legend RIP.

thought it was him, really i would go for the NSX

Yep Senna did; right on that Stella:) but anyhow I hate to see my Z go since only has 64.000Kms on it and always parked on Garage..so for the price I think imma get for it might as well keep it and don´t ave to regret it on the long road.

I like the NSX but how do you think they would fare as a daily driver? Are they a harsh ride, I like firm but not bone shattering.

 

I still think Honda borrowed many cues form Nissans Mid4 design though, bonnet area and side scoops are almost identical.

 

 

Prefer the zed myself..

I've owned hondas all my life, not one has ever broken or had fault. Their bombproof and you can rev the tits of them, and they'll never complain! I'm looking at getting a zed but an NSX is on the cards if i can afford one, a 3.2 vtec manual nsx is what i'd love :) they put out the same power as a zed, but no tubs! Thats engineering for ya, but the vtec buzz is epic!

Its seriously lacking in the torque department though, and has a slower qtr mile than a standard zed guess it runs out of steam at higher speeds.

NSX is a true super car and I would love one but love my zed to much to give it up so would have to have both:D

i think the rear of the nsx is crap lol.

I've driven an NSX and wouldn't swap one for my Z. As said already, the ride is very firm and as a daily driver IS a nightmare (my friend had 2 300's and then got an NSX and always talked about the difference in comfort). Also if you think finding someone to work on your Z can be bad, my mate had nightmares with Honda garages working on his as they ending up changing every part when something went wrong till they eliminated the fault and gave him a nice bill for it.

Absolutely NOTHING wrong with it at all!

 

Each to there own but I honestly can tell you I hate the Honda NSX and would never buy one.
