I like them. But come one!
And you can't use it in the UK since it'd not been type approved. Surely there's a work around for this?

The old NSX is such a brilliant brilliant thing that it really makes you wonder what they were thinking wiht the overcomplication of the new one..
The two cars represent different philosophies, don't they. In a way, complication comes with the territory when one is integrating two different powertrains (ICE and electric) in a single platform. Perhaps we'll see a return to the "less is more" philosophy if / when such a car is solely electric.

Actually they are the same in terms of being a technological showcase. For the original it was the chassis construction and design. For the new one it's the hybrid motors and their implementation.In a way, complication comes with the territory when one is integrating two different powertrains (ICE and electric) in a single platform.

The NA2 NSX was officially sold in the UK, so the Type R has type-approval.I like them. But come one!

I can't find details, but there's a reason you can't import one and use it in the UK though. Unless Im confused with the NA1 shaped cars? Anybody know details? Think it's something about no drivers airbag maybe?Edited by Rich_W on Sunday 18th January 17:33

Fantastic, he spent most of the video north of 8000 rpm!
The driver is very committed and a sets very fast time for the full lap. Flat through fuchsrohre, no sign of a lift over flugplatz and various other places that I don't quite have the nerve to do with barriers merely a few feet away. The car doesn't look especially fast on the straights but he's carrying a lot of corner speed and is barely on the brakes, it must have had some serious anchors on it!
Yup, not much respect for the rev limiter and Very committed, I wonder how many Honda would sell if they just remanufacturered the same car, it looks and sound sublime.The driver is very committed and a sets very fast time for the full lap.
