[@MetalJesusRocks]

Jay Leno really should buy a large piece of property outside of LA and create his own Top Gear-like track where he could really push these cars without having to worry about speed limits. Who's with me!?

[@terryogilvie7879]

+MetalJesusRocks Brilliant idea!

[@MBisFrenchy]

They are ridiculously expensive but maybe just maybe some crowd funding could help and a few more celebrities.

[@TassieLorenzo]

+MetalJesusRocks or you could use Willow Springs for $100/day. :)

[@rvx7b1]

It's the same principle as owning a private jet vs renting it. Monthly cost will destroy you vs renting a whole track for yourself.

[@eldrabayaan1180]

Its a great idea but its really expensive

[@mikemorrison281]

Totally underrated car. A phenomenal piece of engineering. Daily driver reliable and a world class super car.

[@alechall7082]

I feel like it was yesterday that everybody was super excited for this to come out only for it to be immediately forgotten.

[@driverwolf4482]

Mainly forgotten because of McLaren 570s... and quite possibly the Lotus Evora 400 or 430 or Evora gt?

[@daviddavis1322]

It's just big. It's nice. It's fast and quick. It is well done Just the design language doesn't have original NSX emotion. A great spec sheet and meeting regulatory needs doesn't light a fire.

[@mappy-5934]

It's died the same way lfa did. Overpriced, underperforming, & competition is better value

[@KevAlberta]

It’s because when the new NSX came out, all the competitors put the same numbers up 5 years earlier

[@kenhoward3512]

This newest NSX is all about technology. The original NSX was about great performance (for the time), achieved with relative-simplicity, reliability, and lightness. It was artful (at least, with the original concealed headlights), a "Japanese Ferrari," and it represented the epitome of what we loved about Honda, the company. This newest "NSX" should have a different name.

[@user-ki1vd3ti8j]

That moment when you are here to see one ride but would rather leave with another.

[@priztucker]

Thumbs up if you stayed because of the designer. Those genes!

[@alexstafonis1763]

Why so many haters? This car looks gorgeous! Acura is stepping up!

[@S2GUnit]

exactly!!!!!! nothing about it is paying homage to the true NSX. It's not even being born at the same plant it's being made in America yet some people still want to buy it.

[@hasanmichael4966]

I got a chance to drive one of these at a track in Las Vegas, wow, what a car. I abused that car through several laps, hard turns, WOT, braking as hard as I could push down on the peddle, and there was no smell or signs of overheating when i parked, it was as cool as when I first started it up. Wish I could afford one, they are fantastic cars.

[@robarron2310]

I did a 59.4 there at Exotics Racing in the NSX. I couldn't get the hang of it lol

[@patrick_van_der_meulen]

In about 20 years I think we gonna appreciate the new NSX for what it really is. Both old and new NSX are pretty unique for their respective era.

[@jeffkelly9197]

Looks very good from all angles, the teal blue is a nice accent.

[@chrismonteith88]

I remember seeing the original NSX as a kid on my street and I couldn’t believe it had an Acura badge. I didn’t know what to think of it. Amazing car and did change the supercar game. This is a great successor. I love this car. Powerful and fast but also could be used as an everyday driver

[@jasonal1769]

What a great review! So comprehensive in every way down to the design and engineering detail based on discussions with Michelle and Ted. Thank you Jay Leno and your crew for making this possible. Thank you to Honda, Ted Klaus and Michelle Christensen for the development of an outstanding Supercar. Sometimes the best kept secrets are the ones that are mostly kept quiet and in the case of the NSX this couldn't be more true. Just like the original NSX it took many years for the world to fully appreciate its brilliance. The Lexus LFA being yet another example.

[@greennin]

i love how jay's detail knowledge of 1000s of vehicles over multiple decades is so vast at this point that when he starts asking some question (something like "my 2007 SLR has a different sort of electric seat, how does it compare to this ..." etc) the reps and engineers get nervous because most of them know less than he does. he's always very humble about it too, and always the first person to say he's obviously not an engineer :)

[@jcdenton4621]

Tell me what you know about those "Naval Base Buildings" in San Diego.

[@moogle68]

Bruh... you're giving him wayyyy too much credit, and letting your admiration get the better of you. Regarding what he said about the seats, he was literally just saying that it's a bit hypocritical/contradictory for a super/hyper car (which are supposed to be all about performance, which means being as lightweight as possible) to use powered seats because they are easily more than 10lbs heavier than manually adjustable seats, mainly due to the fact that they need an electric motor strong enough to push/pull the weight of a full grown person + the weight of the seat itself. Many, many motor journalists make this exact same comment when reviewing other supercars/performance cars, completely ignoring the fact that almost all of them (including the NSX as the engineer guest pointed out) offer *both* manual and powered seats in order to satisfy the needs of both the hardcore track customers, as well as the more easygoing grand tour/daily driver customers. This engineer was particularly awkward/nervous for some reason, but it definitely wasn't because he was "intimidated by Jay's depth of knowledge". He was most likely nervous about what his boss will think of his performance in this review/interview, and how the video will be received by the public. He seemed like he was also just totally unfamiliar with the format of these videos, and didn't know what kinds of questions to expect. I would've thought that professionals like him would've at least watched 2 or 3 videos on this channel ahead of time so he could've at least *tried* gauge how things were going for him by comparison.

Statistically you will probably get less attention from the police in a black car (or white) of the same make and model then red, yellow, orange or any one of those colors young blond girls seem to delight in.

[@193322009]

As a retired Human Factors Engineer, and former race driver I found the original NSX headroom of 36.3" too low for a large majority of possible buyers. I think they used the ergonomics of the Japanese drivers as a baseline. I noticed that the latest model now has headroom of 38.3" which was, in my opinion, a better number. By the time you add a helmet to the average race driver you will find that even more room will be a benefit.

[@bizzwoofer]

Everyone is hating on the new NSX. Call me crazy, but I'd take this thing in a heartbeat over a new Dodge Hellcat or even alot of the Porsche lineup such as the cayman. To me, it's more meaningful, the aesthetics and overall design and with Honda you know the parts are true to life and quality. Really a Honda-lover's dream car I'd say. Also, I absolutely LOVE how the air flows through the design of the body, it's SO cool. You could say I'm in love with this car, reminds me (sort of, though different distinctly) of a Trans-Am or 300GT, of course more modern and updated.

[@McVerne]

I would agree if the new NSX wouldn´t be much more expensive than all of those examples you listed up. It would be great if it came with a Caymans or Hellcats pricetag. But it´s more in the (pricewise) league with a Porsche Turbo or a Dodge Viper and almost up to the cheapest available Ferrari. And I think you would have way more fun in any of those and they also have their own unike design, wherelse the NSX looks kind of like a supercar from a arcade racing game where they didn´t bother with original licenses. Acura dealer would have a hard time to explain to me, why I should buy this over a Nissan GTR which outperforms it and is 50k cheaper...

[@bizzwoofer]

You're right about the price, and strictly looking through the lens of a buyer you make good points, but If I had the money (and I know it's a dream scenario for the great many) I'd definitely get one. Maybe wait a few years for the price tag to drop on this one, it is brand new out the gate of course.

[@ComeGetSome5297]

NSX is like 180k

[@bizzwoofer]

yes, and of course point made. If you factor price into the equation it's fair to say, it may lose in the value measure. Of course, it's truly a luxury buy and I'm simply basing my opinions off the idea that money isn't a factor. The new NSX is certainly spendy, and you won't be approaching one anytime soon without the bankroll, that's for sure. Cheaper HP can definitely be found elsewhere, but if you are in love with the aesthetics and performance like I am, you simply won't care.

[@billyakin3301]

Jay Leno asks the best questions.

[@avjake]

Bravo Michelle! Outstanding design! Unfortunately, you may have worked on the coolest project you'll ever get very early in your career.

[@jameslandon4126]

The only work of art I see is Michelle's body.

[@MURRYCHOOCK]

Not at all. But even God loves the Good and the Beauty..

[@ftffighter]

Hey Jay! My mom works at Honda in Marysville and got to drive your NSX to the delivery lot to be shipped out! I hope you like it, she's a beautiful car lol my mom didn't want to leave it. P.S the engine was never fired up during the extremely short drive, only electric was used until the owner obtained the car if I remember right.

[@g60force]

Is your mom hot?

[@godzilla_area5111]

@@g60force what’s wrong with you ?😑

[@plm8830]

Hard to believe the NSX is now 5 years old. And that the superbowl commercial was 2012 when this car was officially introduced to the world.

Not sure this is the best colour to show off the car in. Love how enthusiastic Michelle is. She obviously loves her job! And her pants stole the show ...

[@g60force]

yeah man, they should've went with lime green with a hint of babyblue!

[@BSR423]

“‘SOME’ people don’t realize what an important car” the NSX is... Thanks for showing it!!!

[@jwgmail]

"Alright I gotta get one of these" but actually meaning it. I guess it's good to be Jay Leno.
