Why do you prefer s/c? The R53 s/c motor makes less power and gets way worse MPG than the R56 turbo? Jessica's 09 MCS gets here in a month or so we can have a little comparison.Quote:

I was speaking of the Maita when I made my SC comment. We got the R53 because the wife likes the looks better than the new ones.Quote:

OP, It's purely armchair racing for me to compare a Supra to a NSX. But I'd probably pick the Supra for maintenance reasons (I could actually do the work myself). Where as you have to almost remove the engine in the NSX to change the oil. Yikes.
I'm sure, after driving one I could make a more informed decision though.

According to them it was really nothing out of the ordinary and not much more complex than an Accord - no need to pull the motor to change the oil. Hell, they even did a timing belt/water pump service on it and the parts/labor weren't but about $200 more than a V6 Accord.Quote:

I'm going to imagine that it feels more like the Nissan based on power and weight, but I could be wrong - and the ZX wasn't a bad car by any stretch... just felt heavier and not as quick on its feet.
I still want a 911... I'll take an early 80's 911SC or a mid-late 80's Carerra - matters not to me. I want it air-cooled, old school, and dangerously tail-happy!
