975 mile roadtrip completed for 6 days in Monterey Car week. 

From middle of Laguna to Cannery Row to Quail to 17 mile drive - great time

4 other NSX spotted. Had a great time

Car ran like an Accord as expected . Cold AC. Comfortable. High speed stability, low speed cruising...

"Ran like an Accord"

Best praise you can give a car you plan to drive a lot!

Absolutely! What was funny was, amongst all the street parked CGT, LFA, 456 Wagon, there were 7 influencers/kids/instagrammers who photographed the NSX (on my drives)  - so I guess there are a few people out there who like the boring accord as much as I do. 

 

Unrelated: I counted 43 GT3 RS while I was there, and my passenger commented "does everyone have one of those"

My son commented on the same. "Does anyone buy 911s other than the GT3RS?"

put 8K miles on each this year. The GSR is now almost 250K miles and I just taught the 5th new driver how to drive a stick on it. The evo was a hit at hot summer nights here in Omaha. Kyle Loftis (owner of 1320 video) loved seeing it.

God forbid you need to use KW's warranty.  I'd choose any suspension but KW

I mean it's your car, but if I scroll up and down and compare the pics, I know which one I'd rather have wink

I've owned KW's and will never own them again.  I currently have MCS on my 996 and also had them on my E36 M3.  They're top quality with amazing customer service.  Would absolutely buy them compared to KW, whose quality is middling and customer service is garbage

My wife thinks new nsx looks exotic

 

old nsx (mine) looks too similar to my MR2 (per her) and doesnt get why it costs so much more ...

Glad you are enjoying the NSX. A good friend of mine let me drive his 1995. What a cool car! I've always thought that Porsche flat sixes are the best sounding engine, but the NSX V6 sounds pretty awesome. 

Just two old, red Japanese vehicles in a parking lot. wink
