I think you could also get a good deal on a Sprint Cup car...

To coin the phrase near the end of the excellent Director's Cut 2014 Super Bowl "Villians" Commercial.

Oh, and why OzRisk and I own Stratus Grey 'cause nothing evokes elegance, class and style - for the symphony (among other venues) - better than Stratus Grey*. Isn't that right OzRisk, my brother from another mother?

By the way Lance, have you decided upon a color yet?

Best regards,

*And, no. This isn't meant to prompt others to chime in and state which color is best. I am merely expressing my opinion which color suits me - and, apparently my brother OzRisk - best.

Having owned two NSX's - at different times - I must say that they were superb automobiles (as I've written in this Forum before, vastly under-rated and under-appreciated) and I eagerly look forward to seeing the new NSX once it arrives and, should I get the chance, drive one.

Less eager to own one once I heard that the price is purported to be north of $150k. Out of my league I'm afraid.

I was also a fan of the S2000 when it came out - drive it like you hate or stole it - but, try as I might, never could fit comfortably in one (@ 6', 1").

The IRR is a beautiful color, but just too loud to be me. I'm going for understated elegance as well with the BRG. That was my initial choice. When taking multiple choice tests, they always said, your first choice is the right choice.

Amen to that, brother!
