Most likely its just rebadged. If it was imported from Japan it would be RHD.

what exactly did you do to the car? wheels and a drop? if so, the LM's are very nice looking, but you could have gone more aggressive with the wheel offsets, no? i know the negative camber pushes the bottoms of the wheels out a bit, but the wheels as a whole don't exactly "fill out" the wheel wells.

NSX is one of those cars I hope to have sitting in my garage looking gorgeous one day!

I would love to own a cherry version is the future!

Indeed, but it's a car with a lot of potential and very fast when properly modified.

He's got a few parts on the car at this point, with more coming soon:

Tein MonoFlex Coilovers

Paint matched front lip

Route Ks exhaust with cat delete

ARC Intake



The LMs are actually left over from his S2000, and needed 25mm spacers in the back to work on the NSX. These are just temporary until he gets his permanent wheels.

In my opinion his 2000 is the perfect year. The 2000 is substantially improved with a bigger, updated V6, revised transmission with a 6th gear, and a number of other improvements throughout. I personally am adamant on the flip up headlights, as the car is a classic sports car from the 1990s, and I love it's 90s styling. It's almost like if you tried to facelift the Ferrari F40, it's simply meant to be with the flip up headlights, IMO.

I always loved the exterior, but strongly disliked the interior of those cars.

When they came out, the interior felt outdated.

I love what I consider the golden age of Japanese sports cars...NSX, Supra, DSM's, RX-7's and 300ZX's will all be timeless...
