The ’90s Japanese Supercar That’s A Better Investment Than A New Porsche 911

I bumped into a couple once who were afraid to drive their 2005 Acura NSX. I don’t remember this car being particularly scary. In fact, it’s a dream to drive and the first supercar that could be driven every day. That is because it started more often than not, something none of the Italians could say in the early 1990s when the NSX first went on sale. This encounter happened at a Lotus Owners Gathering in Pittsburg, where the couple had driven their Elise some 250 miles from Michigan to attend. Clearly, they weren’t afraid of a challenging drive. But what kept them from driving the bigger, more comfortable, and arguably cooler car just around town?
