- April 29, 1999, on Acura NSX Review:
I have read everything on this page and find that almost everyone has some valid point. The NSX is a superbly designed car. However, for it's price, it is lacking in aspects to power. (It should come stock > 300 hp, at least 100 hp per litre). For under 60 grand, U can get a brand new Corevette, which outperforms the NSX (slightly lower tech, but higher C.I.) an NSX is over 75 grand. People who say it doesn't have a soul do not know what they are talking about, obviously. For a car to have a soul, you have to put yours into it. I.E. modifications. I find it insulting that a car compony has to APPROVE of me before they will sell me a car! (Ferrari) I SHOULD be the one to approve of the COMPANY and THEY should pay ME to drive there car. Personal taste is everything in a sports car, the car reflects a part of you. Anyone who thinks that a BMW has a soul because it is BMW needs to rip the bloody thing apart and put it back together. THEN it will have a soul. I am personally a Corvette fan....
