It had its share of rock chips, hard water spots, mystery scratches, etc. I had it completely repainted last year, after that picture was taken. It's shinier than ever now.

And I still drive it to work every day.

How did you acquire the expensive poxy to bond the panels back again? That NSX was the worlds first production Aluminum Alloy Frame and Aluminum body car ... EVER. I read the difficulties of why it took 6yrs for Honda to bring that to market (after the NSX moniker) regarding difficulty & expense of electroplating and bonding of the Aluminum Alloy and rawr milled or forged Aluminum panels to the frame. Also, the NSX-R had the first Magnesium connecting rods in a production vehicle.
 
Here's mine. It's my new to me 2008 Hemi Orange Charger Daytona. Just took delivery on Tuesday night.

The body pieces removed in those pictures all bolt or clip on. Everything is aluminum and I made sure to hire a shop with experience with exotic cars but I don't think there was any bonded bits to worry about.

Also, NSX connecting rods are titanium. Here's some detail.

Well I'm back with another post..
As I've shown you my old Golf GTi Mk2 which I spent a lot of ££ on, then having to sell it due to a purchase of a Golf R32.
I've become quite a big fan of the VW dub scene, so purchased this as a project/run around.

Cinnanomnonnom :drool

Feel like doing a run up to Queen Wilhelmina lodge this summer?



Yeah, that's him. Check R&S for his Cinnamon thread. Epic read.

Oh hai

I rarely post here, lol. Who are you on fanatics? Screen names don't do anything for me :rofl:

5 hour drive in an E46, you crazy? That thing would explode :p
 
Let me guess: Ford. So your making up by purchasing a far superior car that you are not embarrassed by. ;-)

HahahhaAHah, that's nasty :p

but damm if you have those cars by working at there company, either you're a president of some sort or the company just doesn't know what to do with so much money :D
