Huh?

The FIAT PUNTO?

Mind telling me which car in the middle you see in that pic? (the one that you can see on the right side, a 20% of it, is excluded!)

Yeah I love that bodykit, probably the only non-official (AMG, RS, M) kit that I like on any car. The car seriously is a monster.

Yup it's our Phaeton. I know I know... It pales in comparison.

Oh, so you've still got the Phaeton. I though you guys sold it when you bought the Mazzi.

No way bro. How can I call myself a German car fan if I ever let my dad sell the Phaeton? We're keeping it for as long as it lasts, until it breaks.

I think we have a Phaeton around where I live, I've see it a couple of times!

I saw it out last night when driving, and never knew the indicators on the front headlights run the full length of the light!

Also interestingly I've see this quattroporte a few times as well!

There are two Phaetons in my neighbourhood, one green and another silver. It's surprisingly popular...

Yup, the front indicators are long alright. But with the facelift I'm not sure whether the indicators are already, since the front indicators you see now is replaced by daytime LED running lights.

Seems a shame to me someone would ruin an NSX with those awful rims!

BTW, why is that a Honda, I thought in America and Canada they badged it as an Acura!

They usually are Somebody replaced the original badges.

More like someone put the original badges on, the Acura badge is meaningless. He is one loud and proud Honda driver.

That's true. I'd probably do the same

NSX's (especially of that age) are extremely rare, but I managed to spot another '02 NSX (dark silver) yesterday (no photos though)

I can understand the joke, but I hate when Honda's vehicles get reduced to "lawnmowers" Especially the NSX, which is often dismissed with little knowledge of it's history and impact on the automotive world.

But yes, Honda does make great lawnmowers as well

We have a Honda lawnmower!

It's about 20 years old and still going strong!

It's a joke amongst some forum members on the C&D forums where I used to post.

The NSX has always been one of my favorite Honda's, especially the original version, in red. The facelift sort of ruined the look, especially the front.
