nsx, g35 put to shame I drive a 2002 z-28. Yesterday, I race a infinity g35 and there was no hope for him. Next, I lined up with the nsx. Off the start the nsx got a 1/2 car length gap. I came up even by the time 1st was up, but as soon as i put it in 2nd i pulled a good 3 cars on him. By 80 I was 4 cars ahead and decided that was enough. Both of the other drivers were totally shocked when I told them all I had done is a cam and heads with exhaust.....good thing they paid $80,000 just to get beat by a $30,000 car.

Oh man that was a good friday night. What would you do without me, you sure wouldnt have had a race thats for damn sure. It was funny to hear Miller(NSX guys friend) saying oh man Dustin (MSX guy)has got this, and right then you start the car and it lopes like hell and Miller just kinda looks over like OH ****. But its all cool it was a TOTAL *** RAPING and I could have beat all of you in the WB.
To bad the PoPo showed up.

I hope your refereing to the the NSx when you say 80K, you could buy 3 used g35s for 80K, and a used mid 90s nsx will only run you high 30's.
If the NSX was a pre 1997 model (3.0 vs 3.2) it makes sense, the 1997 and up and much much faster. High 12's, very low 13's

And yes the G35s are gorgeous and sound awesome, but just to overpriced for me.
But the fastest car there by far was a 96 or something 3 series BMW who would run wide open to pass everybody, when they where just cruising, and then he wouldnt have time to make any of the stops. I give you props turtle noy. haha

Oh agreed for sure, but its depends on what youre shotoing for. A stock 1997 and up NSX is much more rare, faster (in stock form vs. stock form), and will handle circles around a stock LS1 TA or Camaro.
If you have never driven a mid engine RWD car, it really is something else.

Handling on the NSX is insane... man what I wouldent do to be able to take an NSX and drop a northstar V8 or ls1 in it.

I wouldn't buy one to be fast, everyone knows there not fast.

90K will buy a NEW NSX.
A NEW NSX is a 12 second car and mid 4's 0-60. Will handle with just about anything on the road.
To claim a stock SRT-4 will hang with it is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard.
Of course an auto is a joke, but were are not talking autos.

But that's just me.

Im surprised it was that close.. With the mods in my sig I was waxing a mid 90s or so NSX at 3 lights. Granted I am glad it was a straight line 
G35? aka 350z? hehe.. you might have beaten him if you done a u turn and raced him in reverse
Though for a luxury sport coupe it is a very nice ride... I'd take one
As far as the NSX, I still think the TA is the sexiest car on the road. But it would be nice to be able to play with that kinda money
