    Please don't engage with any dark posts, for that matter, too.
    Just a reminder :)
    Good point, well made.

    What do you reckon is the most MSE way to go about having a supercar experience? I mean more in the fun-to-drive way, not the broken-down-and-need-remortgaged way.

    Going back to the original question, what about a Honda NSX?
    Not the new one but an original from the late 80's.

    Legendary Honda build quality, bullet proof VTEC V6 that your local Honda dealer could service.

    A good F-Matic would set you back around £60K and a good manual around £80K, better still prices are only going one way, up.

    It's no sports saloon or jumped up hatchback, a proper mid engine supercar that apparently inspired Gordon Murray's Mclaren F1 and has a sprinkling of Ayrton Senna's magical input into it's handling.

    Made well before all the electronic nannying's of modern cars with a badge they doesn't attract spit and paint stripper.

    OK not everyone's cup of tea, but perhaps very MSE.

    Yeah perfectly viable i'd have thought.

    Was considered a supercar at the time, has Honda reliability.

    I'd personally probably go R8 ahead of one, but thats just a personal choice.
