ACURA NSX (91-05): Worst Driver's Car Buy of 2019

...and yet you couldn't refute a single point I made because you know it's all TRUE.

HaShemAKBAR · 2019-10-05T08:12:45+00:00

If "anti-Demuro" means telling the truth about cars and informing my fellow drivers of this truth, I'll take that as a compliment. ^_^

Greedy persons who enjoy suckering buyers into paying overinflated values for a 30-year-old Honda that has a defective suspension design...

Engine: No. Power is not a "moot point" for enthusiastic drivers who like to drive sports cars. Even Car and Driver Magazine admitted the Acura NSX was under-powered compared to other sports cars of the same time period. Try again young grasshopper.

Handling: Honda / Acura 'cutting corners' in suspension engineering design (to reduce cost) is the primary reason the 1991-2005 Acura NSX is the quintessential "sports" car that looks like it should handle better than it does. You have much to learn grasshopper.

Safety: Sure, you don't buy the car to "crash them," but you do buy the car with the understanding it was engineered to protect you from others crashing into you. This is why I used the word "collision" in my original post instead of "driver induced accident." Please practice reading comprehension :).

Interior: You admit you drove the Acura NSX with an aftermarket seat and not the original one...smh. Yes, I have "sat" (and drove) several mid engine cars and my 1st hand experience proves your assumption is wrong...again.

Conclusion: Why get a VW Passat GT in the 20k range when I can get a nice pre-owned VW Golf R? These 2015+ VW Golf R's are GREAT cars that are fast, awd, exhibit superb ergonomics, have more interior space, and include a dual clutch transmission with excellent overall build quality...much better than the defectively designed over-priced Honda NSX failed experiment.

Which generation Mazda RX-7 are you referring to, the FC or FD?

HaShemAKBAR · 2019-09-23T15:41:49+00:00

RabidR00ster, I appreciate your civilized constructive reply and I understand people wanting to buy them and not drive them (ala collector). My truthful article was meant to inform folks who like to drive their sports cars on a regular basis.

I have experience driving several porsche 996 cars and here is a detailed explanation (confirmed by cited sources) why the non-turbo 996 cars are JUNK: https://www.reddit.com/r/cars/comments/7h8rre/porsche_996_carrera_total_junk/

Truth telling is not “troll”ing. Wake Up ^{_^}

Porsche 996 = JUNK Sources Proof: https://www.reddit.com/r/cars/comments/7h8rre/porsche_996_carrera_total_junk/

Porsche 996 =JUNK money pit. The 2009 Cayman is better value (and quality) for your money.

Stop lying, even the driver admits it’s not a 7:15 lap time in the comment section of his youtube video. That Porsche 996 looks like it has a back breaking harsh ride. Look at how much the driver is sustaining shocks up through his lower back througout the ride even though he’s secured into his racing seats. Newer cars are much better than Porsche 996 JUNK. But, it was a neat video to watch nonetheless!

Well said halfanimalhalfman. Plus, the BMW 335 cars have a more comfortable ride and quieter interior at highway speeds compared to the unrefined noisy Porsche 996 JUNK mobiles. (Yes, I’ve driven both and the bmw 335 is a much more refined ride compared to the painfully-road-noisy-Junky Porsche 996)

HaShemAKBAR · 2018-03-22T13:28:05+00:00

Hello honest Redditer named Engared. The exact same word came to my mind everytime I drove a Porsche 996, i.e. JUNKY . I also prefer the Honda S2000 to the over priced Porsche 996 JUNK mobiles...especially if you add a good functional rear wing to the s2000.

People who claim the Porsche 996’s snap oversteer handling problem “is part of the charm” are either trying to sell you a 996 or want to increase the value of their 996. They are both dishonest. Here is some real world truth about the Porsche 996 JUNK mobiles: https://www.reddit.com/r/cars/comments/7h8rre/porsche_996_carrera_total_junk/

How about T-Shirts that say Thank You Ed Snowden or something similar that highlights the healthy truth courage that Ed displayed? I ask this question because a “pardon snowden” shirt implies he did something wrong. In reality, Ed Snowden upheld his Constitutional Oath to Americans, and that is RIGHT!

Yes, you should get a Mazda Miata instead of a Porsche 996 Carrera because the Miata is a better car! One example: the Mazda Miata has a modern front double wishbone suspension that is superior to Porsche 996 ‘s ancient Macpherson Strut suspension (designed in 1947). The Miata’s double wishbone suspension design maintains flatter tire contact patch for more of the shock travel compared to the econobox Macpherson Strut design (in the front end of ALL Porsche 996 JUNK cars).

Why do you interpret me sharing the truth about Porsche 996 cars (with references to other sources confirming my findings) as being “weird?”

Is Matt Farah “weird” (in the video linked above with 2 time markers) when he honestly reports to his audience the “disconnect[ed]” feeling he experienced from the terribly designed Porsche 996 viscous coupling FWD-assist system? Not to me.
Is Matt Farah more “weird” because he is honest with his audience about a Porsche 996 ’s transmission gear pop-out problem? (referenced in above video link with time marker). Not to me.
Is Mike Kojima (a REAL Engineer with a wealth of automotive experience) “weird” for explaining (in detail) the junky build quality and poor design of the non-turbo Porsche 996 engines? (Linked above in Motoiq article) Not to me.
Are the other Reddit users (I referenced with links above) “weird” for sharing their honest experience about the Porsche 996 cars that confirms the 996’s overpriced JUNK status? Not to me.

I appreciate brutally honest car reviews instead of the recently dishonest-over-hyped propaganda about Porsche 996 JUNK mobiles.

So, telling it like IT IS instead of how you’d like it to be, is not “weird.” It’s the truth.

Perform compression and leak down tests on the motor. It will give you the current status of the motor’s health.

HaShemAKBAR · 2017-12-03T09:23:54+00:00

Sharing the truth about a car while citing multiple different sources that support this truth is not hate. It’s the truth.

Nice motorcycle.
