I remember a few years ago I heard that the 03 NSX was suppose to get a non-vtec V8 with a huge power increase over the v6 not sure why they decided to leave the old motor in the cars? I think the NSX's are a little overpriced new NMO. Maybe if they had a little more power it could justify the price alittle better but they are rare cars so I guess that is why they sell for so much.
