Just like the CRX successor called the CRZ, the new NSX should have been called a NSZ or something else again. One is a real Japanese RWD samurai, the other is an American iron grid battery-powered AWD toy. Great video

I think the new NSX looks amazing and futuristic. Much better than the old one which looks a bit conservative for its day but still a classic design that's clean and functional. In my opinion Honda's these days have the best most strikingly beautiful futuristic designs that push the boundary rather than just following trends. Even today Honda make some of the best handling, high quality for the price and great interiors and of course the smoothest engines around so they're my favourite car company.

If one car can demonstrate how a once great car company can lose it's way it is the new NSX. Surely a car no enthusiast could love.

I would be happy to take either (or both) cars. Classic NSX would perfect for a brisk Sunday drive scything through corners with its scalpel sharp handling and the new one as a legitimate option to aircraft travel as a continent crosser.

Sure want the old one. ...they do not make the cars as they used to. ...and that is a shame.

The old manual NSX never ever had a claimed 0-100 of 6.9sec. it was claimed and was somewhere in the mid-high 5sec for the 5speed manual 3l car, the automatic version was somewhere in the mid-high 6sec so you might be confusing the manual with the auto. And if you wanna complain about the price of the new one then you can also do the same with the old one cause let's not forget that it wasn't exactly cheap when it came out.

Great feature! I'll shame myself for not being aware of the '92 Targa victory; a gap in my NSX history knowledge this video filled. Great history lesson, and interesting comparison. Also, at 188, 000km, that original car is just getting broken in. My '92 (Acura) NSX has 266, 000 miles (~428, 000km) on it and it still sees a track regularly.

NSX stands for New Sport car eXperience !!! Just like electric car will be the future, and if I live long enough, my guess is that the 3 or 4th generation NSX could be all electric one !!! No matter what, one thing I know for sure that Honda will make any car that wear the badge NSX as brilliant and as awesome for all to enjoy !!! Long live the NSX !!!

Seriously someone shod his NSX with XYZ brake kit? LoL

Why the new NSX flopped:
1) Was designed by a woman.. soo take that as you like lol
2) Made in the USA and not Japan
3) No Manual option available
GreatDrums.
change the HONDA badge for one of the usual suspects one, and then it'd be a great car. i'll never get why honda gets so much hate. new NSX is just great

Fast but it looks so ugly.. Like all other Honda nowadays

Pulling up to a $420, 000 supercar meet and you're wearing a Honda badge on your front yeah no thanks!
