FEBRUARY - Valerie gets a loaner MINI Cooper while hers in for service. I am sad to see how much MINI's have changed since her car. The nose is way too rounded and long and, in general, the body proportions just feel off!
Either the top feels squashed or the body seems bloated. It certainly does not help that this particular configuration has the smallest wheels.
For the first time in ages, I have made it to the monthly NSX meet at South Coast Acura
Last time I was here, I was still not convinced Acura would ever make another NSX
South Coast Acura has three of the next-gen hybrid supercars for sale...but I am still not sure these vehicles truly deserve to be called "NSX"
Curva Red looks similar to my NSX's New Formula Red, but I would have to see them side-by-side to fully appreciate the differences
I am happy to finally see the two red variations Acura offers. Up until now, I have seen black, white, and silver.
Valencia Red Pearl is not a color I would typically associate with a Japanese car
This color is more like a candy apple red
Regardless of what this car is called, I still prefer it in white
After grabbing a couple slices of pizza, I step outside. I rarely make it down here while there is still food.
Only classic NSXs are present...as has been the case at ALL of the meets I have been to since the new car debuted
Someone didn't get the memo that this is an NSX meet
Even without performance and ludicrous mode, this Tesla is faster (and easier to drive) than my NSX in traffic...thanks to HOV lane stickers and autopilot
No "N", no "S", but a lot of "X". Now where is Patty? I've been looking forward to her brownies!
Our parking garage is going to get refreshed soon...so I take this shot to remember how it used to look
MARCH - Our office parking garage has been refreshed. The white paint is the most obvious change...not just to the wall, but to the previously unpainted ceiling. If only they could do something about the floor!
The lighting is vastly improved. The fixtures have been rotated 90 degrees so that they better illuminate the spaces, not just the driveway.
The brighter lighting makes for better night pictures...even with my smartphone!
Nice day to commute
So nice that I take off the roof
