$90K for a 290 HP V6 car that looks (and basically is) the exact same car it was back in 1990. Sure it turns well and is all-aluminum... $40K would be more reasonable for this car.
Yes I'm serious. It's by far the most overrated and overpriced car to come out of Jahhhpan.

Sorry, I just strongly dislike the NSX. It's such a ripoff.

So, the Ferrari F50 isn't a "nice" body style? Or are you talking about this kit car, which the body looks out of proportion on, in which case I would agree with you. The Ferrari F50, however, is one of the most beautiful modern cars of all time.

Good craftsmanship, but as others have said, why? I was never too big a fan of conversions. Kit cars are cool, but conversions that require wrecking a doner =
Talk all the **** you want about the NSX, it was still a great car for it's time. Honda did get lazy as **** and with only 2 significant updates over 14 years, sales were bound to taper off. Plus we never got the 2800 lbs. NSX-R here in the states anyway. As for the craftsmanship though. That definitely showed that these folks had talent. Despite whether you agree or disagree with them tearing into an NSX, you can't deny that for a completely in house conversion, that was a pretty good job.
