Hehe thats an old vid thats been haunting the NSX sites. Yeah crapulence happens, I dont remember the details but that engine might have been FI, but again its been a while since Ive seen that.
Here is another NSX thats been scaring people for years. The car supposedly is still seen cruising around Vegas. Yeah I know taste is subjective and people might find this sexy (i dont)....but still....DAMN lol

Call me retarded, but what is so scary about that NSX? Is it the NOS sticker or the chameleon paint job?
No single item but more of an all-in-one overkill. Sort of like an over cooked/burnt burger, still looks like a burger, but you dont really want to eat it unless you are starving and desperate. Each option might be good to make the car stand out, but all together, too much. Plus the after market convertible conversion is not a popular option, even from the NSX folks. It compromises the structure and its shape. I'd never compromise my saftey or the safety of my passengers for looks. Yes they can argue that they reinforce the car (at least you hope they do), but that adds weight, and the bottom line is you have compromised the original structure, any modifications done once the original structure is compromised are suspect as they do not go through the testing that the manufacturer goes through when designing the car. Also the car was designed as a coupe, chopping off the top like that is a compromises the design/look of the car. Some cars were just not designed to be a convertible and should not be cut up. So when people chop them up, the car looks out of place or even cheap. It does not add any value to the car, in fact it reduces the value if you try to resell it. The one thing I will say they did right with this conversion is they gave it a shell. I have seen even other conversions which leave the skinny roll bar which looks like a little on the anorexic side going across the top.
Hey FITrunner, I was wondering when you would notice this post!
