yes, the exec package imho can be a good buy now given the weak resale market due to the 4 seat configuration
Congrats on the NSX. I was thinking of going that route after the AP1 and AP2 s2000, but instead went the Lotus route...

Still need a daily!

Good to see you on the boards

Last time I was in a NSX, it was a hardtop, being serviced at Oakland Acura, 2nd gear onramp...was heavenly. You on NSXprime? I think I have been a member there since 98..

Beautiful car, congrats!

Can't believe my CT200 mentioned in a NSX thread. I have been lusting aftera 02+ yellow with yellow interior NSX. The orange exterior and orange interior is a nice combo too.

Love the white/red. In Japan they had a Miata R wiht full red interior. I did that swap on my white Miata. Looks fantasic.

Enjoy the car in good health! I have been really been toying with a 4 door m4/m5/LS600 as I need a more "fun" car than my horrible CT200 for the family....already have too many 2 seaters

thanks for the kind words! yes, it's one heck of a fun car and it's very different from what i have had so far, from styling to attention to driving limitations / conditions. pros and cons...

orange/orange is very nice imho, i like yellow too but not sure about yellow interior, a little too much i think

but yes, i was actually very close from getting the e60 m5 or e55/63 cls55/63, but came across this car and i decided to make the move

yup i am on prime, same username (i pretty much go with the same on across all forums lol)

and yes, my nsx is my daily. drive it every single day except in heavy rain where i can't even see the road (way too low) and others can't see me too. people call me crazy but i say it's crazy to spend all the money on a car and not drive it

I daily my Lotus Elise too. Not crazy. Did a 2500 mile roadtrip with it and a 5500 mile one. 19 hour drivign days. Wish the Elise tank was bigger.

My Elise makes your NSX seem like a Maybach in luxury comparison

If you ever get to LA...let me know..would love a ride in your beauty.

I had a Spa Yellow Pearl and then a Rio Yellow S2000, so I love that color. I think the NSX looks great in all colors
