The NSX is an absolute classic

I remember it was quite something when it was first released, all aluminum and designed like few cars before it. I recall the greatest compliment (and simultaneously to some the worst insult) was that it drove like a Honda/Acura when you weren't flogging it. I think at the time only really true automotive connoisseurs recognizes the achievement by Acura to create such a capable sports car that didn't drive poorly at slower speeds and handled like a normal car around town. My recollection was that when it was released some reviewers took that as a negative and suggested it lacked personality. However, I think long term the connoisseurs who collected them have proven them wrong.
I was out recently for a sunny Sunday drive in a little convertible and passed an NSX going the other way. You really don't see many of them on the roads these days, but it's a true pleasure when you do.
