Nice...I'm still amazed you can find 33 of them. How far away do the owners live? Austin must be doing very well.

Nice pics, Patty. I see they organize the group drive by color. And dlq thinks Vintage events are too organized.

^Deb, the NSX was built for 15 years so there are a lot of them around and especially in So Cal. Many of the owners have nothing to do with the organized drives and don't even know that NSXPrime.com exists. I think there were 300 NSXs at the Las Vegas NSXPO in October 2010. Gene drove his out to it. Gene is that right, 300 of them?

^Lainey, the color organization was the last minute idea of one of the drivers. Les, our leader/organizer is a great guy but he doesn't figure out who is leading until we are standing around, just before the drive takes off. We were supposed to have 3 groups; the black cars, the red cars and then all the rest. The guy who was leading the "all the rest" group didn't even have a co-driver, and was told he was leading just before we left. The good news is, we all kept together so it didn't matter. Les would pull over in long stretches so people could catch up, and he had Ramon (our favorite & famous NSX mechanic/guru), be the last sweep, with a radio. They use "Club radios." Never the walkie-talkies like we all use on S2000 drives. I wish they would. It would be a lot more fun if they did but they just won't.

Not quite, Patty...only 135 or so. Still an imposing sight to see all those NSX's in one spot! I saw a count by state somewhere, and California and Florida by far have the most NSX's.

Oh, nice pics as usual, Patty!

^Really, only 135? My mind sure blew that figure up! On our drive on February 26th, to Malibu, we had 43 or more cars just for a day drive.

My daughter and her boyfriend came to my house yesterday and left today. It was so nice to have them here even if it was only for 24 hours. I really enjoy hanging out with them. We went out to dinner at my favorite restaurant in Laguna Beach last night, and today, Christa rode my ElliptiGO just before they headed on to visit a friend.

^Last night at Laguna Beach (Heisler Park) after dinner.

^Today, 4-17-2012, before they left.

^Christa and me, today.


^Christa tried out my ElliptiGO just before they left. She just kept saying it was strange. She has never been on an elliptical before so it wasn't a natural transition, as it can be with that experience, but she rode it, turned it and didn't fall.

Here are some pictures of our newest grandson Arvind (5 months old). Our son Chris is the father. We recently celebrated Chris' birthday and our other grandkids were there too to interact with their cousin.
