    I have always wanted an NSX. But I also wanted a Ferrari. Since I already have a 308 replica I decided the 348 was the Ferrari for me. I had considered a Testarossa but decided against them for a few reasons. Before I bought my 348 I stopped at Lake Forest Ferrari in Chicago to talk to a few people about a 348 I was looking at. They just happened to have an NSX sitting right next to a 348 in their service waiting area. I walked over and looked at both. I imagined myself owning and driving an NSX then I imagined owning and driving a 348 Ferrari. The Ferrari won. It was no contest. A NSX is nice but a Ferrari is a Ferrari. There is no comparison. I bought a 348 TS Ferrari.

    I have to vote 348 because I own one. But the NSX is great also. The NSX owners I have met here are some of the nicest, and most knowledgeable car people around. If I was going to have to pick one as my only means of transportation I would definitely go for the NSX!

    Poll says styling - 348 is a better looking car. I should know, I have one...!

    I always loved the NSX,and often i felt sad about the poor selling of that great car...but about the styling there's no story.
    The 348 wins hands down.

    All right,a lot of peopole (not me) consider her the 'black sheep' of the modern Ferrari.
    But for me,it's a supercar...and her style it's not comparable in any way with the NSX's one.

    :)

    Just my 0.1 cents.

    Why would you start this again? You don't even own a 348!!!!




    By the way I'm not voting on this rediculous pole!

    I'm not voting as a boycott. You NSX people need to get a life and your own boards and stay the h3ll off ours! : o P

    (Any Italian car stuffs any Japanese car as far as design anytime!)

    Easy there!

    I think Jon's post is tongue in cheek in reference to all the polls posted in every forum: - 348 vs 355, 360 vs 430, Boxer vs TR ......

    I was half joking, but...


    He has a really nice 328. Maybe he should go post his poll in that section.

    I voted #3. Enough of these stupid NSX threads. It's really old.

    If the shoe fits, ...

    Actually it was meant for the originator, but I see it is my buddy Jon in SD. LOL. I AM tired of the NSX comments in a Ferrari board. I just detest those cars. And don't get me going on Lexus products...

    Oh man, I am getting grumpy in my old age. :)

    I think the worst part of the nsx styling is that snubby ill-shaped nose! :(

    The best nsx part, well its not styling but I do like the "aluminum" fenders. The 355 should have had aluminum fenders... At least on the front ;)

    You just can´t compare an Honda with a Ferrari.
    It has no charisma, it's just a nice and reliable car, but neither a symbol of social status, nor an icon of motor racing world.
