Second Degree Murder of an NSX

As to tbe nsx trust me it is an exotic car. Park a vette next to it and prepare to be embarrassed no matter how much power the vette has. Even my viper was no match for the nsx as people constantly asked more questions about it than my viper and said they liked it better. Do a lil research on the nsx and youll see why. It was a very very special car that stood the test of time in every way minus hp

To me to be exotic you have to git all of a certain formula.
Rare=as in maximum 10k units on any given year
Not easily obtainable=minimum of 75k
Stand out looks=dosent blend in with everyday cars
No lesser same model=a one off
A mr2dosent qualify price wise
A zr1 dosent qualify as being a one off desighn as it has several lessr models
A gtr dosent qualify due to blend in looks with a back seat and over 10k produced a year
Supra dosent meet the minimum 75k base price
Nsx on the other hand meets all criteria. If a 2004 nsx had sold for 60k instead of 90k and they made 20k a year instead of 2k and had a lesser 4 cylinder model they made 40k of for the people who couldnt afford the v6 model then trust me we wouldnt be haveing this conversation about the nsx
Ill never own another one but theirs only two cars from japan id ever buy. The nsx and gtr

The NSX is a rare car. I have only seen two in person. One handed me my *** when I had a bolt on 97 Cobra. The other was at a car show. And have to agree. More people paid attention to it then all the Vettes/Mustangs/Camaro's/vipers. It even got more looks then the Ferrari and Lambo that was there.

aluminum monocoque body enough said they are exotic they were ahead of the time in the 90s but they went down due to price just like the supra no one would pay big money for a jap car thats the real story. I had one in 95 and it was an outstanding car. love em

My point exactly. Didnt the nsx have a nsxt as well that is two models so there for by some people logic it doesnt qualify as an exotic either. Come on guys its not an exotic its was honda's attempt to make a viper and it didnt work out too well. Not saying the car was a huge pile of **** that was a horrible car to drive, im sure its a freakin blast but not what would be considered an exotic.
The NSX was never nor will ever be an Exotic. No more than a Delorian is an Exotic.
