Acura NSX Insane Price

 Not unexpected, but still shocking. The new NSX starts at $ 157 800.
Yes. almost $160 000 for the Acura.
That's not all. With all options it goes up to $207 500!

I sat in it at the Auto Show. (Obviously I have not driven one)
And I can tell you that at least from inside, it is NOT worth $160 000. It looks and feels nice, of course,
But not better than a loaded $40 000 Acura sedan.

And, something they don't really understand, at that price a brand name does matter.
Very few people will spend that money for the actual performance of the car.
 All these expensive cars are very fast, handle great and look good.

What people want is to be seen in them. It might be sad, but that's how it is....

I am not sure who would ever consider this at all????

 As far as being seen in an expensive car, you can hardly beat an Aston Martin.
Since they all look great and super expensive, you might as well get the "cheapest one".
Which is this V8 Vantage model. Which starts at $124 000.

Yes, the Aston is almost $35 000 less than the NSX...

 Another great choice: the all new Mercedes AMG GT. I sat in one as well, and I can tell you that it looks and feels twice as expensive as the Acura.

But. At $130 800, almost a bargain next to the NSX!

 And there is always the stunning BMW i8. Which is always quite a sight when I see one.

Again, much cheaper than the Acura since it starts at $141 700 (!)

OR... You can do the right thing and get 18 1976 Chrysler Cordobas. All with the Corinthian Leather option. (more pics HERE)

Which would actually be the best and coolest way to go.
