  • Absolute Dream - 2005 Acura NSX
    By -

    Ive had this car for almost 1 year. The drive is superb, tight, quick, and responsive. The style and attention to detail of the body hasnt been matched. Everywhere you go, people comment. One catch, it is mainly guys that comment, women have no clue what they are seeing, so if your goal is to attract women, buy a Ferrari or a Porsche. The women that do notice tend to know a lot about the history of the car and what it is. The look and feel of the drive is awesome. Recently drove an M6 with over 500hp and love the NSX even more. You feel like you are one with the road. The NSX is an extension of you and your skills. Anyone considering this car drive the others first, and you will see

    This my second NSX. I had purchased the first one in 1991 and and in 2003 purchased the anniversary corvette. After a year of the corvette, had to sell it and purchase another NSX. The NSX is agile, quick, responsive and beautiful. The car is pure, not fancy regarding features ...lacks navigation, heated seats, bluetooth, etc. But if you are looking for a great sportscar that virtually has not changed for 15 years, its because Honda created perfection from day one.

    The automobile is SUPERB. It is STILL what others are trying to evolve to. The handling and performance is incredible for Acura. Fun to drive and looks great, backed by Hondas reliability. An everyday exotic, which is still an "exclusive" exotic as well. KD 1

  • An exotic without the price tag. - 2005 Acura NSX

    No other car I have owned has attracted so much attention (its almost a problem actually). The ride is exceptional and it corners like a bat outta hell. The interior is simple and free of the usual slew of buttons and oversized LCD screens. I much prefer this to the modern trend of bloating the car out with useless features (its a sports car not a cadillac). Add a supercharger and you will toast Ferraris and Porsches that cost twice as much.

  • Great Car - 2005 Acura NSX

    The trill & performance of a Ferrari, with the reliability and low cost maintenance of an Acura. This is my 2nd. NSX and this has the best bang for the buck in the sports car market. I met a 1994 NSX owner whose car had over 200,000 miles on it. His only costs were for normal maintenance. I drove his 1994 and it was still tight and rattle free. People are always stopping me to ask questions or compliment on the car.

  • The real exotic car. - 2005 Acura NSX

    Big time head turner & get many thumbs up, Great PERFORMANCE, oustanding stylish look to it. Does not get blown away from any cars, as a matter of fact, it steals & attention from any car out there. Just way too hot. When I pull up anywere, people have their jaws dropped onto the ground while staring at it. This car steals the show from M3 & any Porshce out there. You need a $250K Ferrari or $450k Carrera GT to compete with the NSX, not any upgraded volkswagen on steriods like the M3 & Porshce. Can a Vette beat the NSX? OF course, but keep in mind, vette is only 1/2 the price of NSX. It really isnt a matter of affording any of the car, it is truely a matter of choice & taste!

  • Like no other - 2005 Acura NSX
    By -

    This car is really like no other. Sure other cars can boast higher horsepower and probably have a longer history or lineage, but in terms of something very unique which not many people know about, it has a character all in its own. There are no real words to describe it. It does no justice, but for the select few who get a chance to step in and drive one of these hand built exotics, it trully is an experience one should partake in.

  • Four months experience! - 2005 Acura NSX
    By -

    Most responsive car I have ever driven. Mine is a silver 2004. I also have a 1978 Corvette. No contest. I often find someone standing around it when I park in a lot. Mostly, they want to know what it is. There are no identifying marks on the outside except the Acura "A" on the trunk.
