I think L6 is Trackdemon's.
I saw a Magnum grey one today, S2 in the number plate.

If your fear of staying alive, outweighs the thrill of making the corner, brake.
Hey guys I feel very left out in the spotting stakes, it seems the X is more prevailent in the South (more money?) & much rarer up North, but then again I feel more exclusive & special when I drive through Manchester city centre at cruising pace & everyones intrigued with the badge! It would be nice to see another one though Calling all Xs in the North, my X feeling lonesome!

I think that the NSX is a car that's is very few and far between, no matter where you are. Over in NI there is about 3, (mine no longer being one as that in now in Edinburgh).
Although I do a fair bit of traveling around, I really have to say I think I have spotted less than 5 different ones on the road EVER. This was one of the main reasons I hunted for a year for one, as I was looking for something that little but "different". And now I don't think I'll ever get rid, I was expecting something good, and it turned out to be something Special

I can second that & probably majority of the X owners here! Something that is very different, not badged conscious, quite rare & reliable darent I say! Thank the lord I did'nt go for a 996 or even a older 348!!

Yeah I know exactly what you mean, although Porche was low down my list, an older Ferrari was a possibility, but lets face it, for the same money all you are paying for is the badge and not a good car. I was tempted buy a Jag XKR, but after I looked at one, I say them (well mostly XK8s) all over the place.Originally Posted by TheSebringOne

When the X arrived, it was better then the rival 348, which alot the car press stated was'nt one of Maranello finest! Plus it can & will rust, expensive to service & needs more regular TLC & was very tail happy! When the 355 arrived, the price & performance made the Porsche the only natural rival. Think you can pick up a earliest XK8 a P reg for 8-10k now & a super charged one 2-3 k more?, so much higher depreciation lost. Also the key thing is its much heavier weight & tad too GT, rather than a driver's car that the X is.

Hi,
Seen tonight (Sunday) around 7pm on old A13 in the Pitsea area. Spotlessly clean all red JDM spec, reg noted, looked superb.
Hope you are here and look forward to meeting up

I saw a black 55 reg NSX on the M25 yesterday, coming out of Clacket Lane I drove past in the VX220.
