Now dont get me wrong, i am well aware of the fantastic performance of the NSX in all its incarnations.
And in general, I am a big fan of all Honda cars.
But the fact of the matter is that I find the overall styling on the NSX (new or old) goddam awful! To such an extent that I dont think I could ever own one, even when they do offer such an incredible driving experience.
Just look at the S2000, its a beauty! I find it difficult to see how 2 such contrasting styles could have come from the same stable.
I know there are a lot of die-hard NSX fans out there, and this isnt meant to offend you..each to their own and all that...but I was just wondering if there were others out there who find the NSX styling less than pleasing?

The NSX was styled 12-13 years ago. Look at other 12-13 year old cars - they're all ugly compared to the S2000

I always thought the NSX was just a 'nice car' with overall performance hat was above average but nothing more than that. after driving in one and riding in a comptech sc'ed one, I have different opinions.
and as for the styling, I still dig it. always have.

I really admire the NSX. It's been one of my favorite cars ever since its inception. What an elegant machine. It's not a raw, in your face sports car...it's a refined and classy performer with nicely refined lines and beauty. It's a finely crafted car...
It's all about taste, but I'd be surprised to find a lot of people who would have the same level of distaste that you have for the car. Which is cool, but I would just be surprised...
Personally, I think it's a terrific car and would love to add one to my stable...
That would make me do this ------>

I don't really fancy the stock NSX because it reminds me of an elongated third generation Prelude but however people have shown me pics of NSX modified tastefully. So I guess it is how the car is done up.

I had a chance to spend some time with an NSX, up close and personal last weekend. I think it's a beautiful car, destined to become a classic. it's relatively rare, also; with only a little better than 17,000 imported since it's inception.

Believe or not but I did get a few compliments that the STooK is better looking than NSX...It's more eye-catching than the NSX...I guess it's all personal preference.
