[@EatSleepDrive]

Do you ever get the feeling that no matter how good these cars are, if they have a iconic name like NSX or Supra, people will hate them? The names seem to take on a larger significance than the cars themselves and no matter the product people seem to complain. The NSX went upmarket and is fast as shit. People said it is too expensive. Toyota partnered with BMW to make a small, relatively inexpensive sports car, and people say it doesn't live up to the Supra name. Can we just appreciate that these cars exist at all and are actually pretty good?

[@maxnix346]

People are all about their gilded expectations not being met these days.

[@OPnoobTheDH]

No, look at how Nissan handled the R35 GT-R. That's how you do a legend revival. Sure, it had its share of hate and criticism too but in its maturity, it's unanimously regarded as a car that revolutionized the super sports car segment. When you underpromise and overdeliver, people are happy. When you take a Z4 and slap a Supra badge on it and try to justify a 55~60k pricetag with 335 hp, people are going to boo. The new NSX, I actually really like though 👍🏻

[@johnsweeney5108]

I don’t know man. I love this car because it’s rad and actually made by Honda vs. Toyota dressing up a Z4 and giving it the iconic Supra name. That’s just awful and sac religious.

[@MrCashMoneyD18]

The NSX is different and Honda knows that but not many people do. NSX stand for New Sports Experimental and that’s exactly what this car is. It’s compilation of all the things that engineers at Honda could think of to make a great car.

[@awdrifter3394]

They should've used a new name. The NSX and Supra name creates a certain expectation. If I have $100k to spend on an NSX, it will not be on this. I will get an NSX-R imported instead.

[@dbrown6936]

I think this car is a great super car. The fact that you can put your foot down all day long not have to worry about it breaking down or costing you a bunch in maintenance is something to consider. At this price point if you want something fast , reliable, fun to drive and not break the bank this is the car . Thanks Mat for a great ride along.

[@apt62]

As an original owner of a 98 NSX, the car requires nothing but a oil change, tires, brake pads and one Timing belt service. Absolutely bulletproof.

[@ACHEIZM]

I don't care how many times I break down my modified Civic will never cost $150K and I'll still have fun.

@le m I agree.. but that's why we have a saying. Build it, Break it, Repeat. It's for fun. Now if you want to drop $150k hell you must have the money have at it. No hate here. If I can spend $150k I'd buy something else tho.

[@truantray]

@@stefanfreestylez but isn't that why it costs $150K? I would have no issue with expensive cars if the price insured reliability, but currently there is an inverse correlation because people don't really drive these cars or keep them more than 2 years.

If I could safely swing the price I would totally get this thing. I absolutely love how it looks and sounds. I know the car catches a lot of flak but it's genuinely a good ride. I've never driven this new one but I have driven an old NSX and that thing was kind of unimpressive. I love the old NSX but people who cry that it's not like the old car trust me you don't want it to be like the old car. That's like saying that you want the new Mustangs to be like the one from the Mid 90's. Old is nice but it's rarely better compared to a new version.

[@mvm1162]

Funny you should say that about the first NSX. I have an '98 NSX that I've tweaked a bit and it's an absolute marvelous drive especially if you push it a bit. Have been driving a NSX since 2002, am on my second one now (crashed the first one at the SPA track) and have absolutely no desire to give it up. Would love to add the new NSX to the stable but with one kid already here and another on the way I won't be able to afford it for the near future unfortunateley.

[@dlg5485]

I've loved this car from jump, never understood why so many so called 'enthusiasts' shit on it so much. It's fast, well-built, handles on rails, has Honda reliability, priced fairly and is stunning to look at. What's not to like? The lack of front storage is a bit annoying, seriously limiting the road trip ability of this car, but I'd still put this up there with the 911 turbo, which cost significantly more.

[@rickc2102]

Heck, insufficient frunk space is a hallmark of NSX.

It's so bizarre to me when people claim the NSX is overpriced. This is an absurd thing to say. The NSX is one of the fastest and most technologically advanced cars on the road today. It performs as good or better than many cars 2-3x it's price. It will serve as the technological benchmark for other supercar manufacturers for years to come. What's wrong with some people?

[@SteveC-Shaman]

At 160K, it's a lot more palatable. Still not a better or quicker car than a 911 Turbo IMHO, but at least the Turbo S to match some of the specs is more expensive (it's considerably quicker again than the NSX, if that matters). It's also just on the edge of 570S pricing, which is a sportier, quicker car as well.

[@d1sturb3d119]

@@SteveC-Shaman Reliability man. If you have owned any of these high end cars you either pay an upfront cost and have the car work with no issues or pay along the way once that warranty runs out. The McLaren for how fast it is falls apart in no time. Look at their forums. Those cars don't take on a lot of miles and yet have rattles, squeaks, stress fractures on the windshield to leaking coolant. Those are not issues I want to see within 10k miles. I can build a car to perform. Reliability is key if I pay that kind of money. Besides the 570S, 911 Turbo (great option), and R8 V10 Plus, there aren't a lot of other cars that come close to the NSX within that price range. We've seen the NSX take on the Huracan and put the 2wd version to shame. That's a 199k car. The AWD version starts at 270k. The 488 has been taken on and the NSX gives it a run. It's given the Aventador a run as well. For a first release this car is exceptional all while doing its job without failing. www.mclarenlife.com/forums/mclaren-570s/51089-troubles.html www.mclarenlife.com/forums/mclaren-570s/86073-570-s-wonky-electronic-problems-anyone-else.html www.mclarenlife.com/forums/mclaren-570s/92533-2016-2017-570s-problems.html Plenty of problems with these cars unfortunately.

It was bad enough in the old NSX that it completely took away any sense of confidence.

Lots of people say this but what many don't understand is that it has to make business sense. Most cars that are released in both versions (auto and manual) sell way more automatics. The whole auto vs manual argument wouldve been valid 10-20 years ago when autos were just crap. But they have since really advanced.

Ya but lambos are overpriced generally too (if youve been ina few youd know exsctly what im sayin)....and look how well they sell. I think its because of the brand. People just want the name. Id be guilty of it too right now if i was spending 200k on a sports car. Gt3, huracan, r8 those are all cars id pick before id pick this thing. Even though seeing these in person makes my jaw drop.

[@FragEightyfive]

I'm glad you hit on the "door sill" part. It is silly (no pun intended?) but a perfect example of how impractical purpose built sports cars are, most are not that comfortable and I enconter many owners that get them as a meaningless status symbol. However, the NSX looks like a very well designed and built car that I would actually consider if they didn't cost as much as a house, though I have not seen one of the new ones in person. Sometimes I wish I didn't 'grow up' and still wanted to own a purpose built high power sports car. I did own a poor-man's-porsche, an MG, so maybe a Miata would do. After I got into fast cars+bikes, I realized fast doesn't do it for me but cornering (driving quick) does. The most fun I have had with SCCA and track days are in making a slow car fast. I think your video on the VFR powered N600 is a good example of that.

You could buy a GT3 for 160? I'd be curious to see if a dealership has one spec'd at its base price. Second, the GT3's 0-60 doesn't come close to the NSX. Good car, different purpose. The NSX isn't the hardest sharpest model around. First car, first attempt on this chassis. Give it time to evolve.

(Maybe later Espirits got scooped) An exotic should cause excitement and interest even with the unitiated.

GTR is superior. GTR has better laptimes at MOST tracks. Better acceleration times with less hp. Better 0-60. 1/4. GTR has better mpg on the freeway. GTR has better coefficient drag. GTR has 4 seats and a huge trunk. GTR is only 50 pounds heavier. GTR is priced cheaper. I forgot which one has better braking distances. But I know reviews say they don't like the NNSX feel of the brakes.

[@WanderingSword]

are you finished? did you unload on your keyboard after that?

[@WeirdBrick]

The thing is can you counter any of those points? And try to justify the tech in this car?.... I will say in the real world i think the nsx beats the GTR everytime in a drag race or a 30-70 quick blast. Its running 10.8s fairly often whilst standard GTRs struggle to dip in the 10s

@@DylanTK nismo n-attack yes but thats like 200k extra.....regualr nismo mmmm not really.

Its old now. And while they have improved the r35 heavily since its release, there are supercars that can beat it these days pretty easily.
