I probably shouldn't admit to this, but I know which B&Q that is.

Hmmm, a NSX / B&Q hotspot...... maybe the big orangy-ness attracts NSX.....???? :-)

Amazing, spotted a red on the Shefford bypass yesterday morning (Tuesday) didn't flash as I was in the Jag. This is one of the first I've seen on the road in 3 years, apart from meets, which don't count:)

Come on who was it?

Spotted a black 55 plate NSX on the M3 last night; I could only see it in my rear view mirror and it kept getting smaller so I didn't get the full reg number:laugh:

Any takers?

Not sure who you're talking about but I was very impressed with your acceleration. I take it you dropped it in to 3rd or 4th as well then floored it when we were side by side.

I'm pretty sure you've got the only black 55 plate in the country;)

It was a good blast; I think we both dropped to fourth and floored it within a second of each other. You need to put some more miles on her as I don't think she's quite run in.

Now where's that rolling road we were talking about:D

Red on M25 - 11th Aug

I dont know why but it made me smile to see one in the wild!

All red pop-up, anti clockwise j7 to j6 around 11.10am. Couldn't catch any of the plate as you were cruising in the outer lane below the armco height :)

Anyone on here?

Now that is fighting talk (torque)

I am hoping to get my mods done by end of Sep so will be looking for another visit to TDI around then. Target 280bhp / (Paul(s) +1) - whichever is greater

Bring it on boys, give it your best shot :laugh: The next thing we need to do is get to V-max and you can follow me to the new NSX record ;)

Spotted a black one with pop ups in Princeton, New Jersey. (Was on one of my USA trips with work).

Been all over the US and this is the first time I've seen one over there.

PS a night out in Las Vegas was awesome.

Cholmondley Pageant of Power car park

Clean forgot about this one until now - spotted silver J440DYR in the car park at the Cholmondley Pageant of Power, Sat 9-Aug.

I came in along that bumpy track in the Elise thinking, "glad I'm not in the NSX today...". If you noticed a black Elise S1 parked right next to the pedestrian entrance by the right of the bridge with no front number plate, possibly the dirtiest Elise you've ever seen (both thanks to Oulton Park the day before), that was me ;)

Edited to add the evidence:

Red in a hurry on M3 - 26.08

All red off the M25 onto the M3 yesterday @ midday

Interesting late braking technique to hit the single coned lane

I'm guessing you know something about the cameras I dont as you dissapeared through the 50mph area!!

Anyone on here?

IOP in Wokingham yesterday about mid-day?

Missus says she spotted a "gold" ;) NSX driving through Wokingham at lunchtime on Friday 29th. I said "are you sure it wasn't a Corvette?" (since they're prone to attacks of being gold coloured) but she was adamant that it was an NSX...

... later questioning deduced that it was probably IOP but the light made it appear lighter in colour to her eyes :)

Boomin, maybe?

NSX red targa spotted in Weybridge spotted by other half (she is reasonably confident it was NSX). Not happy. This is my turf!!

Rob's (Boomin) office is in Wokingham so it was almost certainly was his. I hear that Mrs Boomin has taken rather a shine to it lately :)

Red NSX 5

Red NSX, reg NSX 5, passed me on the A3 coming out of London today at about 2pm. I stuck a thumbs-up out the driver's window (black Elise) as you came past but you stared resolutely forward ... can't risk eye contact with a lowly Lotus driver, eh? ;)

I was excited to see W1 TAP (Sebring Silver) driving down East Grinstead High St this evening - 1st time I have seen an NSX in the area since I bought Y1 over 2 years ago!!

Anyone know this car...is it local to West Sussex?

That'll be me then! Was great to see your car, looked awesome.

It was the first NSX I've ever seen on the road in the UK. Had just been for a good thrape across the moors to celebrate my birthday, many miles from home. I live in Southampton.

I seem to be racking up the miles 5500 since mid August...

Heya Mark,

yep... you know it.
Putting her lexus up for sale next week ... like it will ever sell.
Anyway, if it does... around christmas - thinking about a Z4M ; or if my business collapses a RX8 - and 'let her' call the IOP hers ;) for a little while.

Lately a lot of people would have been seeing "my" NSX in the Reading/Wokingham area and occasionally testing common sense on the M4 into London...
Sadly it's been many months since I've seen a relative on the road...
