Bob,
How low is the GS compared to the NSX? That's a true test for you. I was looking for my car in a parking lot the other day, but couldn't see it at all even though there weren't many cars in the lot. Made me a little nervous. Then I realized it was completely blocked out of sight by a lowered Civic.
Your car looks amazing. It looks like a totally different car compared to your neighbor's car.

The NSX is (obviously) lower as far as the roof line is concerned....more on that in a moment. I mostly can see the GS out in a parking lot because I usually park way out by myself and not next to other cars. The cars are an equal pain to drive- I have to exit most driveways at bit of an angle or risk damaging the bumper. In some respects the NSX is more driver-friendly because the lower valance is flexible (and periodically needs replacement, about $100); the Explosion bumper on the GS is not!
It's funny you mention it; lately I've been noticing how tall the new model cars are getting. I was sitting at a red light the other day; a 300C was next to me. As I glanced over, I noticed my EYES were the same height as the 300C's outside mirrors. The new Camrys and Altimas seem really tall, too.

I even remember seeing a 2nd GS two years ago at LexFest 05 on 20's with what looked like the L-tuned springs/shocks and even that car lowered (not as low as yours or my car) on 20's just looked too tall.
