I'm a Porsche 911 kind of guy... There's something about the thought of that Boxer-6 wailing behind you (previous Subaru owner, you caught me). And then I do LOVE NSXs- there are some sick ones on eBayMotors now!!
What's your favorite car?

Yeah, I think this thread is converting me into an NSX fan.
Supra, skyline, GTR, Datsun 510, 96 Subaru Wagon, 67 Shelby Cobra just my really small list.... For a bigger list see Jay Leno's garage....

The only thing i dislike about it is that it under steers compared to a RWD car. I still like them though, a lot and would be very happy to own one
The pro is that you have to push it real hard to get it to loose control and see if it under or over steers but it is tuned out of the factory to under steer to keep the rich grannies on the road. Assuming rich grannies buy GTRs

GTR is a great road car, insanely impressive in the straights, comfy enough, and it can handle anything at legal speeds or a bit more without being annoying for the under steer aspect. On the track I would try something else though.
Here is an interesting 2009 spec V video around Tsukuba and the under-steer is quite visible

Not to change the subject, but I guarandamntee you that the '12 Si will go the same way or BETTER, because Honda has never, ever, done a 180* like it did here, and Japanese executives do not apologize for mistakes easily. The '12 Si is going to be $$$$$$.
Mind you, I like the '13, I just don't own one.

Lmao! I'm a big guy, I can't be in small cars forever man. My aunt used to have an escalade omg the comfort is ridiculous...Think I can swap a J series into one?? LOL
Maybe, but they all will need paint jobs by then...

I was talking about that with my father, the sedan more than the coupe I'm assuming since it had more drastic changes. But the 2012 Si is definitely going to be a rare car in the years to come.

i have always thought that the Aston Martin DB9 was sex on wheels. If i ever win the lottery there will be one in my driveway, don't care how it rides, how fast it goes as long as i get to look at it every day
