July 23, 2004, on Acura NSX Review:
wow its been 4 years since i posted here! my taste in cars have changed, and reality has hit me (as far as cars that i will be able to afford) sure you all are talking about how light aluminum is, but they have to make the aluminum sheets thicker (compared to your typical steel chassis) to be strong enough for the conditions that vehicles encounter. And the nsx isnt THAT light. in the usa where we didnt recieve the type S zero, or type R, our nsx's are still over 3000 lbs. r32 skylines rang in at 3200~ish and got heavier as the years went on. They also have the most advanced 4wd system that there is. Obviously nissan did something right with that car, as it was banned from racing in Australia and some other countries, hence the name "godzilla" when the r32 GTR came out in the late 80's/early 90's it could run high 12's low 13's in the 1/4. supras in the usa were clocked in at 13.4's~ and could almost generate 1.0G in the corners. with BPU (basic performance upgrades) these cars...
