850CSi vs NSX: Which looks better?

[Travii]

Eight all the way really. It's true the NSX needs more hood D:!

Oh, and hi everyone.

[Oxer]

Lol bump.

[Rainer]

NSX of course! I mean, the 8-series looks good, but not as good as the NSX.

[BADwayz]

I am a huge german car guy, and absolutely love the e31's to death. BUT, ever since one of my best friends showed up at my house one day about a decade ago with his newly bought 92 NSX, I was smitten with it and always will be. I **** hondas, id rather own a 20 y/o bmw than a 3 y/o Honda. But an NSX is in a class of its own.

NSX hands down.

Here are a few pics from about 6 years ago of my friends NSX right after he had a Comptech widebody kit installed. (thats the last shitty ass house I bought, my nieghbors thought i was a drug dealer because of my BMW's and him showing up in the NSX all the time, ha)

The 850 for sure!!!!

apples and oranges. i'll take a banana (no homo).

[ViktorVaughn]

NSX for me, being mid-engined the body has a great balance. If BMW hadnt tried to incorporate the kidney grilles it might have been a winner.

I go with the 8er because I own a 1994 840i that is about to get stanced!!

[MikeG]

hard to say..neither are terribly attractive in my eyes...difficult to pick one over the other based only on looks

[Mike S]

Based purely on looks, NSX gets my vote for sure. They still stand out even today.

[NSXRguy]

At the end of the day, its one opinion against the other.

comparing a luxury car look (8 series) with an exotic look (nsx) makes no sense imho.

[apexilude]

NSX but I grew up on Honda's.

[Tuck&Poke]

First in US was NSX. And I'm almost positive they were first to do variable lift.

[Oxer]

First vtec came out in the DA integras in Japland. pretty sure they had them in 88...

Either way, You dont hear about any other manufacturers perfecting the variable valve timing technology.....

Honda is in a class of its own, Anyone who has driven either a DC2 Integra Type R or an NSX knows exactly what Im talking about.

[C-Hutch]

i think, even in honda, the 89 crx sir was the first to have vtec with the b16a in the japanese market.

and lol at everyone ignoring subjectivity... even i'd call the 8 a "better" car. I just think the NSX looks entirely better.
