It was an amazing 7.5 years with my TSX, but after several years of only driving it less than 3k miles/yr I decided that my weekend toy should be a dream car of mine. I had to sell my TSX (and all her parts) first, but I'm happy to say I finally found my dream car:







She's a 1997 Acura NSX-T (6-spd, 3.2L), Spa Yellow/Onyx Black with 44k miles. She is in such immaculate condition, I could hardly believe it when she came off the truck. I looked for swirl marks and saw next to none - pretty remarkable for a 16 year old car! The previous owner(s) obviously took great care of her and I intend to do the same.

The car was shipped from Chicago and just arrived this AM. She was dirty, so I gave her a quick wash. Unfortunately, there's salt/dirt on the road so I probably won't be able to drive her for at least a month or two.

I have a lot of plans for her (shouldn't be a surprise for most of you), but for now I'm just going to focus on a few simple mods (coilovers, exhaust). The car came with a set of Advan Model 5s (discontinued, very rare) so I think I'm good with the wheels for a while.

The NSX has been a "bucket list" car and I now finally have one. I haven't stopped smiling all day. Seriously, my face hurts :grinno:.

Thanks guys. Believe it or not, I haven't been able to drive her yet because there's still salt/dirt on the road and it's raining right now. Hopefully I'll get a chance for a drive later this week. The anticipation is KILLING me...

I knew you would get an nsx. I'm super jelly.
Haha I gave a few hints in the past ("staying in the family"), so alot of you guys were guessing right all along :).

:luvlove::ben::woot: Congrats! I can't wait to see the mods to come!
Congrats! Please create a build thread on here for it, even if it's just links to a build thread on a NSX site.
Sure thing, I'll keep everyone updated with my progress. I don't plan to leave here anyway, the TSX has a great community and I'm curious to see what other people come up with in the future :thumbsup:.

Congrats on the pick!!! :)
Thanks man! Have you found yourself another TSX yet?

Brooooooooo, I'm gonna kill you!! I was contemplating that one on Prime after itrsteve sold his. I want it after you get tired of it!! Congratulations on the purchase.
Haha sorry J, I should have consulted with you first. The car really is in incredible condition and I got it for a decent price to boot.

We'll see about getting tired of it - I am planning on keeping this car for the rest of my life :thumbsup:.
