    I swear the NSX just keeps getting better and better looking as it ages. They just knocked that one right out of the park. It looks so low slung and exotic. It still looks just as striking and fresh today as it did in the 90's.

    After 6 months of refurb/work, i FINALLY got her home last Tuesday.. Yes i confess i've made up a reason to drive is almost everyday since then.. Had a GREAT Kenwood headunit installed that has 30 colors of backlight.. one of the greens matches the green backlight of the car perfect at night, so it almost looks OEM.

    Here's some pics.

    shake & bake,

    Chris~

    Congratulations Chris. Six months is a long time to wait, but judging from the photos, the work that was put in was certainly worth it. Gorgeous car! And we NEVER need a logical reason to drive our cars...

    The son of the president of the Martin Guitar Company was taking a pic of the car when we went back to it. Dad has a Dino which the boy pronounced Dyno. You meet all kinds of folks in a Ferrari.

    If so, let me know if you want to sell the wheels. Look great on your car.

    I think I just crapped my pants. The added turn signals are a nice touch. Is it tough keeping it clean? I have a black BMW 840 and the second I wash it, it is dirty an hour later.

    I think you guys will find more interesting cars in Challenge Cars thread if you are into the sporty/racier upgrades for this car in imho, but thanks for the interest.

    In regards to keeping it clean, I don't think I drive it enough to bother me. What bothers me are swirl marks. I've gotten rid of a lot of the swirl marks and if you don't wash the car properly, you will get them again. The key is to avoid contact with a towel as much as possible. Just this past weekend I took it to my buddies house to try out his new spotless car wash system. Wash and air dry system basically. It did leave some water spots but I think I didn't wash the car with soap thoroughly. I just padded the soap on and tried to avoid circular cleaning motion as much as possible. It's not bad and I will probably be buying the system soon. Waxing the car definitely helps keep the car clean as well.
