Not the fastest thing, but definitely sexy. I just prefer old school V8s, sans computers, because they're so easy to work on. I don't have to drag the car to a dealer every time something breaks, like with most modern OBD II cars.
The one drawback to driving my car on the street however, is 5MPG.
You rockin' a mustang? I can respect building a car yourself, but not picking the NSX as the one japanese car you can stand (j/k
). I'm no fan of the "throw a coffee can on your mom's civic and run 16s at the drag stip" mentality, but I can say that the one reasonably powerful japanese car I owned (and rebuilt) was a blast.
