So including the showroom model that was 4 IOP's. Just how many do you have a record of Simon? I like the mirror shot.

Kevin, I have your wheel and will deliver on route to Nortons in next couple of weeks.

It was good to meet up and thanx to Ivan for his hospitality and coffee's. I hope that Rocky (NSX GT) found it worthwhile.

Simon, did you get a photo of the Pearl S2?

regards, Paul

Besides those 4 there is of course AR's ex T1NSX (1999) which now has a new plate, the ex Autocar long term test car (1998), V6NSX (2001 Targa) which was sold last year. Minch has seen an 04 in Amersham and I have seen one in Harpenden.

There is also supposed to be one local to me here and one that I had previously seen at Trident also (could be one of the above of course).

Brilliant pictures Simon, all special in one way or another, clever mirror shot, 3 Imolas variants (with a certain CF's car nextdoor!) Paul, when you say Rockys, is that Fusilov's only NA 02+ Type R! Finally the 02+ Imola, was that owned a kind bottle water provider at JapaneseFest? :thumbsup:

[AR]

Is the 02 IOP owner the one from Japfest?

Simon there is also the LHD IOP with the bodykit.

Cheers,

AR

James,
Rocky is known as (NSX GT) he is ex Hong Kong Chinese with a British passport but now lives in the US but is going to move to Canada and start up a business like Bazza as he also has contacts in Japan. He has a white 1992 NSX (IIRC, back in the US), which he has been trying to turn into an NSX GT (hence his user name), very nice chap.
Yes the pictures are of Fusilov's only NA 02+ Type R!, but Ivan would only let us look at it from a far, but simon has a very big lens on his camera so got a decent photo of the front.
And Finally yes the IOP in the showroom was/is owned by a kind bottle water provider that you meet at J@pfest.
HTH Paul.

I choose not to acknowledge that one. (Probably down as Red on my sheet also)

Good call!

[dan the man]

I wondered if the white one was an THEE R or now.. great!

Anyone else think on that shot the front bumper colour looks a mismatch- oops!

[TheSebringOne]

Cheers Paul, I've seen NSX GT's avatar on Prime, Did he live in the UK before the States? Would have been interesting to have met or spoken to him if he did lived here as I have dual residency in HK too!, but British born (Glaswegian)! Rocky was obviously his nick name, do you know his full name? :) The guy you met at Chiswick from the US, NSX R GT is a different person all together right?

[fuzilov]

you are right ,car had slight bumper scrape so Honda resprayed it wrong colour so was back in for correction,well spotted

[Monaco92]

I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed my first meet last saturday. The depth of knowledge you guys have is scary. Made me feel like I have a lot to learn. I must thank Ivan when I see him. :)

Would of been nice to meet you and get closer to your P&J. Hope all is sorted now.

Monaco92, good to meet you and your friend, thats a great looking NSX you have. On any other day it would have been a rarity in IOP :laugh:

regards, Paul

I was hoping it was going to be camera colour and not out- dont want to belittle anyones car on the public forum but at least my attention to detail is correct.

Hope it gets fully sorted for you. Mines in bodyshop as we speak- and i hope thats comes perfect... Q nail biting.

James SS is correct, with regards to his real name his other half always called him Rocky.

[TheSebringOne]

Sorry for going off the thread! SS, is Kare the English version of your real name (Dai Lo)? If not, sorry as my alledged native tongue is quite poor! Are you a BBC?

[Silver Surfer]

'Dai Lo' means 'Big brother' or 'Yo man'. :cool:

I see your 'native tongue' is non-existence. BBC I am but I disguise it well.:laugh:

SS

[TheSebringOne]

Cool man! Thats two BBCs in NSXCB! :thumbsup: Would have been 3 if NSX GT was still around in the UK! Did you know him? Shame I did'nt meet up with you at Castle Coomb (Japfest). Sorry my native tongue is very limited! You wanna hear my Mancunian accent! :eek: :laugh:
