Are you talkin' old NSX or new NSX? I beleive the new one is actually slightly slower than the previous generation in the 1/4 mile because of added weight (interior luxury items) and slightly lower HP.... I could be wrong... haven't heard much about the newer ones other than most people were majorly disappointed.

 

Against an SS? :dunno: The NSX isn't exactly a straight line racer either.

Doesn't list times, but almost $90k for only 290 hp and 224 ftlbs :wtf: even if it is faster than an SS its a rip off.

I located this information for factory stock NSX's. It is 0-60 mph and 1/4 mile times. I would conclude that our SS would be in deep trouble, even in moderately modified form.

the old nsx can install facto x engineering.this means the motor can be changed to 500hp.there is a guy in modesto cali that has one with 500hp. only obd1 can do this. the new one cannot yet. it is still a great car. if i had the choice my dream car is a skyline r34 spec 11. that is a ballsy car.and you can get to 1000hp withblitz turbo kit

i have the look for a truck not an import. bald head beard growing, bot gq for an import. i dont llike rich cars mercedees, bmw. i like cadillacs, would luv an escalade with 23's on it. but truck fits me and i would not go back for anything , if i lose the ss i would get another truck as a project

NSX is just way too pricey, not a fan of those imports, you can buy a c5 for half the money that has better performance. I'm not biased towards imports (just traded in One SS on one) but I just find them very pricey for what you get and their service is so expensive. The escalade is definately one of my favorite vehicles. :) especially with rims.
