It has all the ingredients of the perfect supercar. Stunning looks, incredible performance from it's Twin Turbo V6 Hybrid engine, great handling and just a brilliant car to drive. The big question is though...why don't Honda sell more of them ?!
The Honda NSX has a history that starts with the legend that was Ayrton Senna. The latest iteration of the NSX is a technology showcase. Blistering performance and some really clever drive modes. In this video I finally get to experience the car for a few days thanks to Hendy Performance in Poole.
If you like the car it is for sale...

Me too……. Unfortunately they stopped importing the NSX to Australia- it was $420K when it was here but cars in Australia are priced obscenely since Tony Abbott and his clown show forced the end of our car industry and everything went up.

Great vlog as always. Back to a "normal" car review, fantastice. What a car, reminds me of an 80's supercar on the inside yet with modern hybrid motors, I'm often disappointed with the inside of so called super cars but I guess cost has to come into it somewhere. I think Honda's are probably one of the most underrated cars so this doesn't surprise me that this one is so good. BTW, your Mic was very quiet once you got in the car? Might just be me, but thought you'd want to know.

I have a Honda Accord Couple 2017 with the 6 speed for knocking around town. It's a blast to drive on B roads...but this NSX makes me want to drive over to Acura and leave with the NSX. Honda needs to bring back the S2000..!

@@sdlausen1 to the average person it is a super car that we will notice. But to those that can afford this car and cars of this caliber they would rather get a Lamborghini Ferrari or viper or ford gt and so on and so on! The Audi R8 and Honda/Acura nsx is in the super car world the sleepers of super cars. That’s is exactly why they did not sell near as well as hoped. It’s the same problem with the Lexus LFA by the time it finally came to market afte 10 to 15 years of development! It was on par or under par with the current super cars and it was way more expensive to similar cars. My example to back this up is if you put the Honda/Acura nsx a 100 plus thousand dollar car next to let’s say a Dodge Viper or a Ford gt or Lamborghini or Ferrari of similar value I’d pick the viper and Lamborghini every time. What would you pick? The Honda Acura is a fantastic car just as the Audi R8 and Lexus LFA but there’s just other cars most would rather have.

People with money want to be seen with money and have the common non car people notice -- hence them buying the typical cars like Ferrari, Porsche, Lambo etc. Also, a sleeper is a fast car that doesn't look fast. The NSX is anything but that.

I think that's the problem. It's understated, it's the supercar that does everything you need a supercar to do but not everything you want a supercar to do. It's like how the CBR1000RR is a superbike that does everything you need a superbike to do but not everything you want a superbike to do. The problem is nobody needs a supercar or superbike at all, it's an irrational emotional choice for which the Hondas aren't flamboyant enough IMO! :) In reality, the Hondas meet everything you might ever need a supercar or superbike to do, but somehow it's not enough to win the sale.

Really its a wealthy persons daily then move it on. Different though and I like that a lot.

Very nice alternative to the usual supercars, and it looks great, and Honda makes great cars. But I calculated the cost of the options alone on this car at over 12,000 pounds, and I guess thats not much if you have enough to buy one of these. For my money though, I'd use the options money to buy a series one Elise and enjoy a real analogue sports car. Sure it can't do 180mph but when are you going to need that kind of performance. Get a practical car for the every day and you've saved yourself 100k. Also, the S1 Elise is now going up in value as people realise they're never going to make them again.

I think the issue is exactly that , it's too well heeled . It does everything quite well and maybe too well. As for why Honda doesn't take and make some of thier push buttons more luxurious , good question , it's actually pretty easy to take a standard switch body and put an aluminium rocker or push button on it and class it up a bit !! . I think where Honda made the biggest mystake was why not shut everyboody up and build a full out V8 turbo with higher power electric motors and capacitance drive launch . Honda's racing division could easily come up with the goods. Yes it might be even more expensive , but lets face it Honda has dominated Formula 1 , why not build a street legal Hybrid Formula 1 Coupe !!!! Im sure they would sell a ton of em !!!

Wonderful car, wonderful review. Two things however: 1) the NSX does have Apple CarPlay, so I’m surprised to hear the dealership didn’t help you with that; 2) I hope you know the cup holder attachment can pop out and be placed in the cubby, much like the old BMW Z4 and several other cars which used this same solution for carrying drinks. Like most people, I’d say it’s brand snobbery that’s limiting sales. For people who love driving first, I hope they can give it a chance. I’d certainly love to own one! Cheers!

@@paulm6481 It shares the technology of the 918, P1 and the LaFerrari for 1/8 the price and is faster than a Huracan, 570S, Aventador, 488, GT-R Nismo and an R8. It's actually highly undervalued because fanboys don't understand the tech that's in it. It's a drivers car. It's not for fly boys who like to parade around malls and valet at steakhouses in their leased McLarens and Lambos trying to flaunt their measly and highly volatile Crypto portfolio LMFAO.

Agree completely, absolutely brilliant car. It can take everything I can throw at it and perfect happy driving around town. I tell everyone my GTR is a sledge hammer the nsx is a scalpel. The gear box is best in class and second to none. Truly an amazing and fun car.

I have a thing for sporty Hondas. I have two 3rd Gen Honda Preludes. Would like to have had the first NSX, but the second is an absolute masterpiece in my opinion. Other supercars you couldn't use every day and they dont tend to be so well screwed together, so it's a dream for me to have this NSX in my garage. Maybe one day 🤔

Great review. I am in love with this car. I have had the pleasure of seeing 3 on the street and even sat in one and I can honestly say it looks better in person than on video. It is truly an underrated gem of automotive engineering. I think part of the problem with Acura NSX sales (here in the USA) is the "Brand Snobs" who don't look at Acura as a luxury brand and especially not as a "Exotic/Performance" brand. I have come across people who have never seen the car in person tell me the car is overpriced and say they would buy a C8 corvette instead...but have no complaints with the pricing of an Audi R8, Huracan,McLaren 570s or a F88...all of being more expensive than the NSX. Here in the US both Acura and Honda seem to lack the "cache" of other brands despite the fact that they have a reputation as being good, reliable well engineered vehicles manufacturers. Another "Knock" on the NSX ironically is the NSX name...I honestly think if Acura/Honda called it something else people may have been more receptive to it. The 2nd generation is such a dramatic departure from the original in design and technology that "so called purists" feel it is blasphemous to call it a "True heir". The 2nd gen NSX is a brilliant vehicle that unfortunately won't get the praise it deserves because it is simply ahead of it's time. Hopefully some day I can afford one because ever since I saw one in person I have been madly infatuated with them...a truly marvelous machine.

Just wait. Many are beginning to come around on the second generation NSX. I lost count how many naysayers I have converted after I gave them a ride in mine.

I drove the original and it was an exceptional drive but you did need to have some skill to be able to ‘use’ it’s power because it was raw and brutal when provoked. I have often wondered why they didn’t bring it back sooner and why when they did, it wasn’t popular. I think you eloquently addressed those issues and hit the nail on the head with ‘the price’, the brand snobbery and probably that interior! Another great review and as always very well balanced with your comments and observations. 👏

I think this is a great car, jekyll n hyde vibe, that has everyday charm and usability. You know it well and agree with you. More sales I would make the jekyll bit more dramatic maybe add a "hooligan" mode OR a Type R version with 9000 rpm.

The flagship of Honda NSX by far the improvement model from the predecessor model still amazing machine, like you said it not all about power and the way it moves dramatically down the B roads is definitely better than anything else there is on the market industry globally for its price and regardless of apple car play you can get it upgraded quickly or cup holder these are just little things that you can change, it's all about the drivers experience with the way the car manoeuvres and the response feedback also for 100 grand buy one with every accessory and lowest mileage and then storage away for future investment, like it predecessor before. Amazing value for money and a future classic.

With you Ped. Having sat in (not driven one), the noise is a bit muted but the interior looks and feels much better in the flesh than in pictures (passenger unfriendly drinks holder notwithstanding). Add a fruity exhaust, kill the mouse hiding in the dash and that’s a hell of a thing (I even love the silver which I usually hate). Definitely a bargain at £100K…
