Nostalgia often makes us forget the faults of the past. But it doesn’t matter. We much prefer the old Acura NSX to the new, and here’s why.

Acura NSX

Universal Pictures

We see in the movie The Fast and The Furious: Tokyo Drift. Even if it is only one extra, the fact that it is found in this series of cult films makes it even more interesting.

Honda NSX japanese police

The police in Japan had one. His painting black and white makes it absolutely desirable, even if one does not want to see in our rear-view mirror with the lights turned on. For Japan, it was a choice much more natural than a Ford Mustang Mach 1 1973.

It had a manual transmission available. Of course, the five-speed manual was much more exciting than the automatic four reports. But the new
Acura NSX offers a dual-clutch automatic transmission to nine reports.

It was available with a targa roof. In 1995, Honda has launched this version. To walk the horses to the wind, there is nothing better. Unfortunately, this variant is not available with the new NSX.

Acura NSX Alex Zanardi

There was a special edition in honor of Alex Zanardi. In 1999, Honda and
Acura has paid tribute to Alex Zanardi just won, two years in a row or in 1997 and 1998, the series CART Champ Car.

Acura NSX 2005

It was simply much more beautiful. She was virtually unchanged from 1990 to 2005. Fifteen years for a car, it is huge. And yet, still today, it doesn’t seem to be a relic of the past.

Acura NSX: old and new

It is much less expensive than the new. A copy is in perfect condition with very little kilometers on the clock will sell for at most $ 100,000 CDN. For a copy brand new straight out of the dealer
Acura, you will need to spend 190 000 $.

Honda NSX-R

Honda

There was a version R. Intensely lightweight, it was also much more radical in conduct than the NSX regular because of the absence of the traction control system. There is hope that Acura will eventually do the same thing with the current NSX.

It was only the rear-wheel drive. It adds character to a vehicle. The new one is more technological system with four-wheel drive, but purists don’t shine. And

V6 Engine

Acura

The NSX original was powered by a genuine V6 engine, the combustion of the first 3.0-litre, and 3.2-litre. The new acts as a technological showcase and twin gas and electricity, with its hybrid engine.

Acura NSX driven by Ayrton Senna

Ayrton Senna has participated in its development. And that, few vehicles can boast to have been partly designed by a world champion of Formula 1. See the above at the wheel of one and while he made a demonstration of heel-toe around the circuit of Suzuka.
