B6 or B5 was your dream car?

Amazing platform to work on, unfortunately the V8 in the B6 wasn’t nearly as fun, but it sounded great!

When I was in HS I wanted an NSX but my parents refused to pay 20k for one in 2010-11 what a steal

I loved the yellow/yellow NSX (it was my 5th NSX). Got a killer lease…made it even better by putting a lot down, getting the pmt even lower, then extending the lease at the end.

I had planned on buying out the NSX at the end of the lease but soon after I got it, a woman sideswiped me at 15-20mph. Minimal damage but I was scared the Carfax would impair the future resale value. So I extended the lease and eventually turned it in. Big mistake.

My 1998 Jeep Wrangler TJ. The tranny gave out at around 190K miles and I didn’t need a second car so I sold this for $1500.

I miss that car dearly…

How reliable was the MP4-12C?

CA DMV doesn’t bother you about changing this many cars without a dealer license?

I register some of them in South Dakota
No smog
No inspection and 1/3 cost of registration

I put on 23k miles on it. I had no issues.

Took it up to Big Sur / Vegas many times.

Maybe I got lucky. But I just enjoy the mclaren spider driving experience for that type of car.
