Autocar NSX feature goodbye...out today!

[TheQuietOne]

Hello All,

Andrew Frankle's NSX goodbye article is in todays Autocar!

3 pages and a nice fairwell...although the fact that he had an auto as his feature cars appears to not have gone down too well...who'll lend him their manual for one last fling...? I might....

Cheers,

Matt.

I would, anyone got any links with Autocar, would be good if we could help them give it a proper send off :)

I too read the article today having waited patiently by the post box.

The 'Before the NSX, supercars were crap' comment will I'm sure have bought a smile to all who own or have driven the NSX :D

However, the comment 'there instead sprouted a grotesque T-bar', reflecting on the fact that this was an auto, probably hasn't aided the residual value of auto NSX's :cry:

I look forward to Andrew being set free in a manual to complete the glowing send off ........

perhaps he should come along to a track for a spin in mine?

Thanks for the note and the kind offer. However, I'm afraid that Andrew
Frankel's drive story WAS our send-off for the car - between this and
running a last-of-the-line NSX Type-R on long-term test last year, we can't
really justify anything more on a car that sold in such small numbers (even
though we loved it).

Just shows what dictates the content (advertisers and new car sales) :(

I thought Ivan was looking quite mean and moody :lol:

Anyway despite being an auto (I'm no fan either) it was a great write up that wont harm interest in the car, and consequent future values :D

I showed EVERYONE in work the title of that article :D
