2017 Acura NSX No. 1 just rolled off the line in Ohio
VIN No. 1 wears Valencia red pearl paint. It is equipped with carbon-ceramic brake rotors, leather and Alcantara trim, and uses carbon fiber for the engine cover, roof, and rear spoiler. Top that off with upgraded wheels, and it has every available option. The NSX is powered by a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 that teams with three electric motors for a system output of 573 hp and 476 pound-feet of torque. It has a nine-speed dual-clutch transmission and all-wheel drive.

@ maaku: I'd like to buy the 4C actually but its around 60k. Maybe in a few years, I hope they continue it otherwise they would get horribly expensive used. It looks great, sounds great, has a modern carbon chassis.. man, this is what sports cars are made of, not a million horsepower.
@formed: Yes, you got me thinking. The 1 Series M Coupé is reaching ridiculous prices in germany, around $50k and up. The 135i is too new to buy for a good price, also I don't like it. The 130i would be an option but honestly.. the 1 series is just so dry and unemotionally german.
I sat again in the Fiat today, we drove around a little on the back roads. It was the 140hp "Custom" model. It was as fast as my current bimmer but didn't sound very good with the normal exhaust. I'm still in for the 160hp model with Record Monza exhaust.
What's so wrong with it?
- The Fiat is like an Automatic Timex - sure, it'll perform adequately, but will always be a cheap watch that can't compare to a Rolexformed
- Just remember the Fiat is a cheap economy car that's been hotrodded - it'll probably be fun, but it'll fall apart tomorrow. The other cars are the opposite.formed
