haha good eye, i was wondering if anyone notices that

yup, all car enthusiasts. funny that at one point we all had some very cool lexus (that's how we clashed), some of us still have tight ties with lexus right now, but our fun cars are all no longer lexus! but it's always good hanging out with great friends

Your NSX looks absolutely tiny next to that 997, its amazing how big the 911's have gotten.

Wow great observation. Even the S2000 looks big compared to the NSX. Wonder how dwarfed these would all look if a GT-R was parked there

yup, it's amazing how small the nsx is. as you can see its roofline is below that of the rest of the cars. of course, my car is lowered too but still. when i drive it's quite funny that i am below the belt line of most cars around me.

which makes it quite a dangerous drive sometimes... people just don't see you. and on rainy days it's even worse because i catch all the mist....
