Thread: Sunday morning drive

  1. #1

    Default Sunday morning drive

    So yesterday I went for a drive with some similar metal / carbon fibre, some of which cost less than an NC1, and some more, and some considerrably more!

    This was the first time I've been able to see if the the car is able to keep up or even go faster than it's rivals. I can only compare it with the 2 cars that I followed and the 2 cars that were behind me, but I had no trouble keeping up with a Gallardo and a Ferrari TDF. The Gallardo and I had no trouble losing the Ferrari FF behind me, and the driver of the manual V10 R8 (which was later behind me) commented he had problems keeping up.

    I was so impressed with the car on this drive, I only put it in Sport mode and that was more than enough. She is SUCH a fast car, and a real joy to drive.

    Blimey - it looks relatively small in those shots!

    “I find myself irresistibly attracted to cars that nobody else buys. The NSX is a classic of the genre because nobody buys it and yet it’s a fantastic car. It’s got a wonderful compactness and simplicity and unpretentiousness to it. Honda rudely continues to make them whether we like it or not, even though there can be no commercial logic in doing so — I thoroughly admire that.” Rowan Atkinson

    Nick, you are right, next to the FF and TDF it is small, just like the original, the differance between a NA and NC is really the width.

    Looking good in that company - not a classically pretty car, but certainly a striking one, and with the right proportions.

    Liking the matching plates, too!
