So what does a car have to be to be considered hand built? Should the human building the car possess the ability to mold aluminum with his bare hands? Should the human be able to shit a car battery out of his ass when needed to finish production?
LOL!

Wow! You found one whole image and it's of a C4 vette instead of a C5.

Do you want a cookie? I'll hold your hand to the jar.
You asked for an example, I provided you that example yet you still have a problem with it? So what if it's a C4, the C5 isn't really old enough to have 200,000 miles and you know it. An oldest example being a 1997 would have to have had ~25,000 a year put on it to be at ~200,000 by now and you know most Vettes aren't driven that much yearly. As for your "one whole image" statement, well that's one whole image more than the same search or any variation thereof using NSX or Acura NSX in place of Corvette comes up with. So by using your ed up logic we must be able to extrapolate Corvettes are more reliable than NSXs.

Do you need me to hold your hand some more?

The best part of the thread so far.

Honda is finally stopping production on the NSX. Hopefully these threads won't go on anymore.

Let's just hope the new one will be as innovative and ground braking as the current one was back in 91.

I think Honda was trying to follow Porsche's lead on their 911 by way of minor detailing. The 911 hasn't really changed all that much over the years but it still sells pretty well. The NSX unfortunately is really too expensive for what it is and despite Honda's reputation in racing and quality build, it sells far less than any generation of 911s.

I think one poster said it best, if his wife can still say that the car looks the same as ever, then its time for Honda to move on.
