It is probably the most reliable supercar.

Lexus LC500 is better for the money

I'm going to disagree that LC500 is better for the money. On top of that, if you're spending that kind of cash you can also buy yourself a proper early 00's NSX (or any NSX for that matter). That whole super car that's known for being as reliable as...a Honda.

That's a boner right there

Edit: I change my vote, that backup camera and abysmal interface ruin it for me. If I'm paying that much I expect EVERYTHING to be at least up to modern entry-level car quality. Shit made my dry as a bone.

Yeah interface blows. I think Lamborghini’s is much better.

It's really a shame. Agreed Lambo is doing it right.

It's certainly not bad...but compared to it's peers it's just not as good. Don't get me wrong though. If you gave me the keys to one you'd have to fight me to get them back, but if I had the money I'd probably be looking at other options instead.

I'm a huge fan of Honda and Acura.

She's a beaut. Normally I'm not a fan of loud colors, but you bet your ass if I'm getting a supercar one day then I'd get a color like that. Acura did the exterior design very well, have also heard it's a reliable beast. Of course, if you're buying an NSX you can probably afford to not worry about reliability, but hey - always a good thing to consider. 

I need a new car. I was planning on picking up an LR Model 3P until sometime last year when Tesla's QC & manufacturing issues started really coming to light. That combined with the lack of charging stations (figuratively - as compared to gas stations which are literally everywhere) made me pause on the EV thing. I have no doubt that I'll get an EV in the next ~10 years, but I think I'm gonna hold off for now. 

I've only had three cars - had an '04 4Runner, 2018 A3, and currently drive a 2020 335i. I guess I don't 'need' a new car, but hey. A man can dream! Who knows

 

M3 and MY owner...family finally went full EV and they are very fun to drive.  on the QC issues, yes, you can see it in the panel gaps, but to me that's cosmetic.  Battery pack/range and the solid self-driving on the highways is really nice.

overall have had 0 issues with the M3 from 2yrs ago and relatively new mY...we'll see, but hoping they both last a very long time.

 

The 2005 Acura NSX is something else for me, it's hilarious that a clean, low-mileage, un-modded one still goes for $70-$80k haha. Love these exotic/tuner cars. 

 

I love the old NSX too. Such a great car - classic rear.

I love how you can downplay this car - chicks be like "what you drive" - you're like "acura."

Looks fine to me.

Yeah the original NSX is awesome as well - I want both.

I understand that passion. I am obsessed with Ferrari's right now even though I love my Aston but Ferrari's prices are crazy right now.

SafariJoe, wins again!
 

Looks good, but for $200k I'd expect an interior nicer than my last several rental cars
