"Respect. I can easily overtake you but that is the car I wish I had."

Very nicely put and in my experience, reflective on genuine Honda fans .. whatever the model, whatever the level of presentation/modifications from stock to turbo nutters, they still flock to and want to know what its like to on the NSX.

I made a new friend recently as I came out from paying for fuel ... this guy was standing looking at the NSX. He looked at me, smiled and simply said ... nothing ... whilst nodding. We did get talking, have subsequently met up a few times for drives. His S2k has been replaced by a Scooby which is stupidly quick compared to the NSX, but like your CTR experience above, he always holds back and respects the old ones (me and the NSX) in front of him ...
