Which one would you get, and why?

Ferraris are built hand crafted style, they really put love into those cars. That NSX is nothing but production, loads in japan only rare here. Ferraris are prestige.

Ive borrowed both before and i will first tell you to check out nsxprime.com and ferrarichat.com for more home work.

Everyone wont agree with me but the truth is that the nsx is the better car for various reasons ill type up when i get home (on the phone now). Get the ferrari if you want it for the name but prepare for ferrari problems and money

That maintenance cost may be the difference-maker.

NSX is the car that made Ferrari step its game up. Not to mention, NSX is every bit as high tech and high performance as the 348, but with like 1/10th the maintenance costs and 10x the reliability. Its a no brainer, and I love Ferraris

I feel you on that, but at the same time

NSX. If you want a V8 Ferrari, might as well start at the 355. First real modern Ferrari IMO.

It's not really comparable to an NSX in terms price or performance. That 355 is really a whole different animal.

Yup which is why you shouldn't consider the 348. Just save up or buy the NSX.

Fair enough.

I'm late, but you pretty much got your answers already.

Ferrari for the name, but the reliability and maintenance is gonna always tug at your pockets.

I don't care for Japanese cars, but the NSX is one Rare Japanese whip where I'd be pretty content to have one, others being (Supra's, Z's, RX-7's, Skylines, etc...)
anyway, even that the NSX is a sports-car and costs in gas, parts and maintenance would be more than a typical Accord (but not by much I'd imagine) you still get a reliable Honda made, head turning, quick, rare car.

Objectively speaking, it's a no-brainer...


...but I didn't have a poster of a Honda on my wall as a kid

Nsx in the OP is ugly as fukk



In terms of looks, the 348 looks dated as fukk, both outside & in. Ive had my nsx for 9 years (80k+ miles) next month & the only expensive thing I had to do maintenance wise was the clutch, valve adjustments timing belt & water pump. The clutch had to be changed because this was my first stick shift car & I burned the clutch out. The valve adjustments, timing belt & water pump were past due 10 year scheduled maintenance. So lets say i knew how to drive stick, i really didn't have to chance shyt. The only parts that actually died on me was the starter (took it out myself & had it rebuilt for $60, Acura wanted $900 + labor ) & some part thats somewhere between the clutch pedal & the reservoir ( parts were like $200 max)

Oil changes included I spent just about $9-10k on maint. in 9 years. Performance, visual upgrades & shyt is another story
