That’s how fast the New NSX went round Dunsfold. I would say that it’s just about median. Not exactly earth-shaterringly fast, but is spiffy enough to be competitive.

This also proves that the New NSX should have happened in 2014.

I think, all things considered, the 6-odd years it took to get to Dunsfold ought to be included in its time as well.

Also I love how the number plate obscures some of the Acura Beak. Baby steps toward improving and whatnot...

Why is this RHD NSX registered in Frankfurt. Did #Brexit anger the JDM overlords so the UK won’t get any NSXs?

Well it’s around the GTR time right, looks like it beat it, do you need a car to go faster?

The NSX set what is basically the lap average for the tier it’s in. And considering its gestation period, I’d say it did well enough.

Yes. It’s come out 8 years later and has a starting price of 80k over the original 2009 GTR MSRP. It does need to be faster.

PS I work at an Acura dealership.

Well it does have that Porsche 918 style tech in it, and if you like the way it drives there is no other car with that type of drivetrain in it. I haven’t driven one, if I was going to spend that kind of cash I would drive several cars.

That would have made it tied for 11th with the CCX (with the Top Gear wing added) on the old power board had it come out sooner. Not too shabby honestly. Since the new series, it still is only 14th. Considering the types of cars ahead of it, I would say that’s pretty impressive.
