I guarantee he did it to emulate the 94+ stock NSX wheels. And to be honest, they look extremely similiar. Not a bad idea at all, however, they could certainly be wider out back.

Poor taste? You mean like paying $30k+ for a car from 1992 that’ll lose by a second to an 2001 S2000 ($19k) around Nurburgring… nooo… no poor taste there.

S2k is more fun to drive IMO, it’s as fast, and significantly cheaper. Would you rather I spent some time and got Watkins Glen times? I’m still willing to bet the S2k would be +/- a second.

That’s really not the point.

The point is, it’s an impressive car, regardless of track times, and some dude is rocking Pep Boys wheels on it.

Those wheels are ass.  
I don’t think that DTM style exhaust is stock either. Looks like crap.

I would have bought an NSX if I could have gotten a loan for an older car…  
s2k has been fun though, but I’d still take the NSX.

those rims look like ass
