I miss my S too. I'd take a CR with a Kraftworks Super Charger and call it a day.

S4play is right. 360 spiders are dogs. They are all looks and no go. I wasn't impressed at all. That car is a puss compared to others. The NSX is a bit underpowered though. That is one thing that truly does bother me about the car.

I agree it's hard to beat a Supercharged s2000 in terms of a fun play car if you already have a luxo super sedan like the IS-F in your stable! I truly think it's the most fun you can have for under $30k bar none....CR edition is nice but I can't live without a softop.

NSX seems slow on paper with only 290hp but for some reason it just feels faster than most cars. I'm debating if I want to add the CTSC which should power output around 450 hp ~ drove my friend's CTSC NSX and it's seems to pull endlessly on the highway! This is how the NSX should have came from the factory and puts it in the same league as most super cars today.

^ you have a nice selection of cars. I agree with the NSX and it feels much faster when you are on the road. The handling in the car stock is just incredible. I cant only imagine the car pushing 450hp

Since we are talking about a second impractical car, my choice is going to be a 1999 or 2000 Mazda Miata with a 2008 or 2009 LS7, a T56 6 speed and a Ford 8.8 IRS. The suspension mods will include similar mods that my son and I are currently making preparing a Spec Miata for racing but will include larger brakes.

The LS7, T56, 8.8 IRS adds less than 200 pounds to the Miata with about 75 pounds of that to the rear.

We are in th planning stages but will probably install a LS3 Crate motor with 480 hp instead of the LS7.

Talking with people that have driven similar conversions it is an absolute blast. All can be done for less than $25k.

Did I read that correct....you're going to put a Corvette motor into the Miata?? wow

FPR1939

Correct.

Go to Flying Miata or V8 Roadster to see the finished products. It should really be a blast especially on Track Day.

I stumbled upon a 2006 BMW M3 manual....
It's not Japanese, but it could hold out until someone comes up with a *zing* winnder

I would say because I have it now.... my NSX and my Mustang Cobra. I wish a GTR was within my budget but it's not.

C'mon baller you know you can buy the car anytime, just sell a few shares of stock Just gotta find a place to park the GTR and since you're already packed with cars I volunteer my garage!
