[ARFNSX]

If i say the word: "Lamborghini" to you, what are your first thoughts immediately?

A shit load of money to repair
one of the best looking cars in the world
A shit load of money to repair

A shit load of money to repair

and did I say a shit load of money to repair....

LOL, yea but most people think of everything you said in between the "shitload of money to repair."

Besides, i never said there was anything wrong with a Honda. And it's not like i knocked on a Honda or anything like that.

Now, when i say the word: "Honda", honestly, HONESTLY, what do you think?

High maintnence.
Low performance:price ratio.
Something I'd never buy even if I had more than enough money.

but see a lambo is all about class and prestige. I'd rock the hell outa a 30th anniversary countache... simply because not many people have 'em. Its a rare sight and just sheer pimpness. People buying them likely would care less about performance... for the price you're paying you can make something homebrew perform better in every way... but its all about the label "Lamborghini"... Sure they cant sell no lambo with a b16 in it and expect it to sell, but its all about the their image... Pimp ass cars, which are also potent, rare and expensive.

This is exactly what i was talking about

And like i said before, and i'm pretty sure i speak for randomguy too, we're not knocking on the NSX in ANY WAY. Just this is what people think man

Thats the thing. Its just a matter of personal opinion.

I could give a fuck less about a "label" or how *expensive* a car is.

And to GTIKID.... It was an honest response

[mp5o]

This is exactly what i was talking about

And like i said before, and i'm pretty sure i speak for randomguy too, we're not knocking on the NSX in ANY WAY. Just this is what people think man

I guess thats what normal people think.


I'm not normal. I care about performance over "labels".

[RandomGuy]

nah but the difference is that i DO think the NSX is an exotic... it strays from the typical "Honda" ... back then how many 6speeders were there? Shit sat LOW to the ground... super-duper well engineered. $90k... even for that much you coulda built a faster car... (well... this will be contested, duh... i know honda spent mad money engineering the shit... but lets pretend ok?) The car has "prestige pricing" you know those who can buy them will...

the definition of exotic is liek something thats fuckin unusual, and not a daily site, or RARE.... both of these apply directly to the NSX. and lol back in like 94 or somethin i had an "exotic car calendar".... and you best bet it had an NSX in it(along with diablos, buggati's, ferraris; the italian monsters, etc).... lol I still have it if anyone wants proof lol.

that solidifies the claim that NSX's ARE exotic

[gtikid]

Fine, how about we make a poll seeing what people would rather drive.

A Honda or a Lambo

We're not debating here about price or best bang for the buck, none of that. Just what they would drive. ANY HONDA vs ANY LAMBO

Drive or own?

And like I said... Normal peeps would agree w/you. I'm not arguing that point.

I didn't claim it wasn't. Just not as rare as other shit. I see more NSX's than i do Lambo's/Ferrari's/Porsches/etc.

[A1EX]

i see far more ferraris than i see nsx's

[gtikid]

Drive or own?

And like I said... Normal peeps would agree w/you. I'm not arguing that point.

Hmmm good point. Really, i have no clue what i'm arguing about anymore

[gtikid]

i see far more ferraris than i see nsx's

Not me. I need to know where you live

[RandomGuy]

i know a good question to ask. Mike, (mp50)

say you had a choice between two cars.
A skyline GTR R34 Vspec decked out to the fullest 1000whp, 8 second 1/4 mile car handles like a dream and everything right.
or a
Ferrari Enzo. (stock)

(lets say this hypothetical skyline outperforms this enzo in every way/shape/form.... but in some categories, only by a small margin)

what would you pick and why?

[A1EX]

Not me. I need to know where you live

oh no lol i dont see either were i live but when i go to florida i see far more lambos and ferraris than nsx's

Truthfully, I would pick the Enzo. Wondering why? Well, I do not like to "take credit" for other peoples work. I honestly couldnt call that r34 *MINE* due to the fact that I didnt build it/design it.

I'd pick the enzo and sell it. Then live happily ever after.

ok again ur avoiding the purpose of the question...
if selling it was NOT an option... do you know which car would you keep, and drive... or own.
and the ferrari is someone ELSE's work also... you didnt build nor design it. now lets say this skyline was tuned by nismo... all of the mods and what not... what would you pick?

What I mean by "building/designing it" comes after it has been manufactured. Basiclly, taking a stock vehicle... And making it your own. Its kind of like expressing yourself. Now the original question says that the Enzo is bone stock. Meaning theres potential to make it my own. And not just a work of someone else(IMO).

Back to the question... I'd take the skyline... You wanna talk about something rare? Something you dont see everyday? Well that's it. Anyone rich enough to afford one buys a Ferrari(Or something similar).

[RandomGuy]

lol ok now say that skyline was an MK4 supra
... lol lets keep chaning the question til weget the answer we want ... LOL

[mp5o]

Well being that the Mk4 supra is on the top of my favorites list. I'd take that. LOL

[RandomGuy]

ok now cool... the skyline was a bad example..cuz i didnt factor that they are also rare... but cool thats the difference... You have no value for cars with "Class and Prestige"

i woulda chosen the enzo hands down... Even if the enzo ran a 15 in the quarter. fact is, it runs 11s bone stock... which even adds to the sweetness. Now say you stop somewhere... they hear your LOUD ASS turbo spooling up and blowing off... ppl are like whoa.... If an enzo simply stops... people are like holy shit wowzers :jerkit:
ya know? Thats prestige

Enzo = SUPER DUPER RARE/expensive, epitome of exotic

honda marketed the NSX as an "exotic" specially back then, who the fuck paid 90k for a japanese import? Partially why the Z32 twins (some hit $70k new) failed... they were marketed as "corvette killers" or whatever but it wasn't an "EXOTIC" , whereas the NSX was "FLAGSHIP ACURA" and thats why NSX's are still sold.

Thats just the thing though man. I could giva fuck less if people say "wow' or not. Its about what I want. Other peoples opinions on my car wether they're good or bad don't influence my choice of cars or modifications what so ever.

But, yea... Thats just me and how I feel. Im sure 90% of people would choose the enzo. Who cares?

lol well its also about owning a peice of ferrari history... a car commemorating the founder Enzo Ferrari... but hey.
I'm just saying, exotics aren't bought for performance.
