I see many people on here going with a 997. I have been really looking at an NSX. I think it would be a fun project to take on. Love Fab and Comptech have great solutions for the NSX. Anybody on the forum own one? I would like it to make it my DD and save some miles on the F.

I have a friend with a science of speed supercharged NSX. It's an awesome car. But why would you daily that instead of the ISF? If I had both, I'd do the exact opposite.

NSX would make a good DD, but I think the 997 would be better. Personally I use a 911 as my weekend car and my 'daily' is the ISF during the summer, and a g37x for winter/rain. Frankly if you're considering a 997 a cayman S might be a nice alternative as well. You might find you like the balance better.

Both the 997 and NSX are very comfortable but the NSX is such a rare and special car I think i'd go the 997 as there is just something about the NSX that deserves to be preserved and kept off daily duty IMO. It's soon to be a collectors car though and values are already going up so it might make a good investment - but again, only if the miles are kept down.

Why not go even crazier with an Evora S or something like that?

GTR is a great option..

If I were to buy another car just for myself, it would be small, cheap, and mid-engined if possible. It might be an MR2 Turbo. Watch this, a Ferrari cannot catch an MR2 turbo, which pulls away dramatically on the straights. Granted, the Ferrari is only a 355, but still...

THIS! I've contemplated buying a GT-R as well and keeping the IS-F for daily driving duties. Then again if the IS-F is the last of it's generation (i.e. the e92/90 M3's) I would like to keep the miles off it. It's hard to know what lexus will do with the IS-F in the future. I'm sure the next IS-F will have a TT V6 which will make our cars much more special (later).

NSX is sick but more of a weekend/track toy over a daily.

Check out the new 2015 Mustang. Looks rather interesting even though I'm not into Americans

Dude, if you can buy a GT-R as a backup car, you're better off than me.

Unless you plan on keeping the F for 15+ years, it's not going to appreciate anytime soon. So, if you do end up getting a 997 TT or GT-R, it's almost pointless/redundant to keep the F.

Having said that, I'm the guy who traded in the F just to repurchase it after having seller's remorse, but I find it redundant so I might sell it again for a true weekend car.

You could always go for value with a late-80's Fiero......

I had an '86 Fiero GT. It was an exceptional handling car and great to look at. (this one is not mine but looks just the same) Unfortunately, in 1986 a 3.0 V6 block could only produce 140 HP. Can you imagine what that block could generate today? That's the same size engine as in an NS-X.




my second car (which would actually be my 4th car) would be for autocross and twisty back roads. Which would unfortunately have an impact on how often I drive the F.
