the only fd's i ever see are a black one with privat fahren wheels and fmic, and a HOT gunmetal one with what looks like apexi gt spec exhaust... ive seen him by me and huntington

J&R Rotary in Elmont has a gorgeous white one that looks stock but is rediculously fast
and theres always a bunch of broken ones parked around that area by there shop, but thats a good ways away, so im never over there

o yea and of course this rediculously nice black one which i took a guess and thought it was you

do you ever bring your car to the bald hill car show on tuesday nights during the summer??

that hot gray one belongs to r1dreamer on here. it is very nice and he's a good guy.

I guess you haven't seen my VR with bright new paint, MS vented hood and MS nose flying around

you can usually see some nice FDs, FCs and FBs at J&R

NSX v. FD Granted you used to have to pay a lot more for an NSX when your FD could do pretty much the same.

But I mean its an NSX, i wouldnt forget that fact. It's like owning a Lambo countache, they suck, you can't see out of them and from what Ihear they can't handle, but it's a Lambo. It might also be nice to own a Mid engine auto. If you don't like it, switch back but I don't think you'll ever get this opportunity again

i think it would really be what you wanted it for. if its for performance and top speed runs and such, i would never want to do a 150 mph run in a rebuilt car unless a pro rebuilt it from the ground up and checked all alignment and seams (idk who rebuild the one your looking at). if you want a car to pick up chicks and just cruise around town, then i guess a nsx would be ok. i think a fd would be in the same class though. if you wanna step up a class, go with a viper, z06, low end ferrari or top end benz.

IMO i dont like them. They are great handling cars, but you will never get the power you will out of the 7. To me they are just a beefed up honda. Not to say that they are not cool, or good looking. But from a performance view point you can get more out of your 7.
