GA>DO>The NSX is merely the most acclaimed..
GA>Yes it is, and has been for the whole decade.  And why do you think it's
GA>so acclaimed?  Because it's turn signal flasher emits a more satisfying-
GA>sounding click than the Corvette's?  like everyone else here too!>  At least part of you would seriously
GA>answer "yes", so in advance, I'll say "guess again".  It's because it's
GA>the best of the best, regardless of numbers.  If you think nationality
GA>has anything to do with it, then another example would be the 300ZX
GA>Turbo, which also had the slowest numbers and was the oldest design, yet
GA>stayed king of Japanese sports cars, after VR-4, after RX-7, after Supra
GA>Turbo.  Nothing could touch it, much less the C4.
GA>The 97 Corvette is just as acclaimed as the NSX anyway.  But a big part
GA>of that hype comes from sympathy, because the old one was so much worse.
GA>Granted, it's a good, true sports car now, but everyone's been praising
GA>it for how much it has improved, even though all it's done is caught up.
GA>The hype is starting to fade already.  I'm sure you got the latest issue
GA>of C&D.  Read that whole 1/4th of a page on how they talk about how much
GA>its handling sucks.
Whatever. I don't really care about either car anymore.. I've seen what
the rest of the world thinks, and they don't like either otf them
anyways.. and to tell the truth, neither do I. I really want a DeTomaso.
I used to care which car was better, but all these pissing contests have
really lost their worth recently. So I'll find my DeTomaso, and everyone
who has a vette or NSX can do whatever it is they do.. I don't need to
think that my car is in some way better than theirs.. I just happen to
like it more.
