In1998, I had put a deposit down on a Corvette, when I saw a 1990 NSX drive through a nearby neighborhood. I went to the owner's home and told him about how I loved his car. He took me for a drive down a twisty country road. After that, I cancelled the Corvette and bought an NSX. Still have and love that car!

I bought a new NSX Type-S in lime green metallic in 1999. I still have it to this day and take it to the nearby track (Sugo) whenever possible. Though I am not a pro driver, it feels like it when I am driving it around track no matter what the times are. Truly an amazing car.

I remember sitting in an original NSX in the showroom at the age of 10 years old, the salesmen were understandably excited about it. I'm 40 now and still can't afford one, but listening to Harry's account of it is the next best thing!

Had the chance to meet Harry @goodwood Festival of Speed and that just confirmed my "youtube impression": What a nice guy and total car enthusiast! Using a Zonda wing as support for signing my little poster - Thanks again :)

i cannot understand a thing he was saying on his test drive because of the noise, but i absolutely agree with everything he's saying,

[worldofrandometry]

What a lovely sound that makes. Wearing headphones and thought I was on board.

I'll never get tired of that engine note

16:40 the sign of a true car enthusiast Harry is. Telling a story about Senna -> nice twisties ahead -> downshift, revs up, "I'm going in"

[spainter]

I don't care if it's lacking in torque/power compared to modern standards, lightweight, that noise and a manual gearbox is what matters. Sounds fantastic, you really captured that induction noise well!

The body language that You display while describing the body movements is priceless, You are a blessing to the auto. industry. I can't wait till You have a project 8 on. Excellent work Ol'Timer.

All time favorite car. So image-free, so reliable, so drama free.

[Stoppahpowah]

The technical and historical homework you do really brings context to these cars in a way no one else does. Keep up the good work!

I have a '92. It's an amazing car. It just makes you want to drive harder and harder, and it loves every bit of it. I have driven a lot of different cars over the years as a track nut and instructor, and this one is my favorite.

Dear Harry, the more you show us cars from 1990-2006 the more I like your videos. Great quality reviews. Thank you

Harry reviewing an original NSX? Is today my birthday? Drove my stock '91 to work today and got a thumbs up!

[Porkerr]

In a world of vloggers and YouTube personalities, this is pure gold. Thanks Harry!

The original NSX, this facelifted version is my dream-car. Waited 25 years for them to drop in price only to have the price go up!!

Thing is that Honda is producing amazingly reliable cars !!!
This VTEC normally aspirated engine is the engine with the less recalls ever !!!
Harry thanks !!!!
