Does not matter how big the tailpipe is... 14.4 in the 1/4 mile is SLOW.. the 1992 got it to 13.6 in the 1/4.. sorry but that is still SLOW...

I have an NSX with a CRX body kit. I like it.

People don't by the NSX for it's speed, they buy it for its prestigious history and its beast handling. The Civic may have the NSX in the quarter mile department, but anywhere else is game over for the civic.

Hmmmm, here's a Stage3 S4 running a 13.55.

I don't think running nearly the same times as a highly modded car eight years newer is exactly SLOW. Maybe you should be comparing S4s to Civics.

Keeping it real. The newest produced NSX even still has a tape deck.

I love how drag times are the only thing that matter to people, no matter what the car is made for.

That was the old "dragva" way.. Now it is not how fast it is, it is more the "vadriven" way.. Like if it has leather, or dual power seats...LOL...

I have driven a NSX when I had my 97 Supra TT.. The NSX handles like a dream and sounds awesome and gets more looks than the Supra..

So I am not bashing the NSX, I drool over my neighbors whenever I see it..

But in the end I figured I drive straight alot more than I turn, so speed won over handling.. I got the S4 because it handles as well as the NSX ( I have a NSX owner who will admit it), does high 11's/low 12's in the 1/4 mile and I have driven 10,000 miles since upgrading it and only had to change the oil.. Not bad for a daily driver station wagon.. try taking wife, 2 kids and 2 dogs to VIR in a NSX......
