New HONDA NSX

NSX is a 2-seater sports car sold by Honda Motor Co., Ltd. during the year 1990~2005.

It was the car developed from the wish, “To have a world-class Honda car” with Honda F1, and it was sold without full model change for a very long period of 15 years starting from the year 1990 to 2005. 

During the initial sales, the price was US$78000 (8 million Yen) only for the grade 1, and this was the highest amount among the passenger car of the Japanese manufacturers at that time.
Then the price increased gradually by improvement and additional equipment, and it reached the US$88000~127000 (9~13 million Yen) level.
It was the highest amount for a Japanese car at the price of the new sports car in those days during the 15 years of sales.
The engine is C30A type V6 DOHC VTEC NA 3.0L with horizontally mounted V6 as the base, and a rear wheel drive with the engine mounted behind the driver.

Mid-ship engine and rear drive (MR) are being adopted.
Moreover, it used the “All aluminum monocoque body” that was unprecedented for the cars sold at that time.
From those special characteristics, this car was almost assembled by hand instead of assembly line operation production using industrial robot in the factory.

It was commented as the unique super-sports Japanese car similar to the Ferrari and Lamborghini, from such feature and price class.

It was developed with an aim to exceed the driving performance of Ferrari 328 a V8 model of Ferrari, and it was said that many 328 was purchased for data collection.
The driver of the F1 team to which Honda had been supplying the engine at that time such as Ayrton Senna participated in the driving test from the development phase.  

It was declared that the sales of the new model NSX is scheduled after 2010 in Japan, but the development was discontinued along with the F1 withdrawal due to the business review triggered by the worldwide finance crisis in 2008. This time, the experimental new model NSX car was presented to the public on August 4, 2013, and the demonstration driving was performed at the Indica series held in the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course in Ohio State.

Honda announced that it had invested about 70 million US$s (about 6.65 billion yen) in the place is adjacent to the Ohio center of United States Honda R&D Americas on May 14, 2013, constructed the factory to produce the new models "NSX". It announced that the new model NSX would be produced only here, and will be exported to all over the world starting with sales at North America. 

The start of mass production of new model NSX is on 2015, and about 100 employees have already been selected from the Ohio factory, and the training to produce new models NSX with high craftsman ship has started.  

 I think that NSX made by Honda of serious mode returning to F1 in the future makes is more attractive, though super-sports cars of the European manufacturers are also good.

It would not be like spending half of the period at the repair yard during the time of possession by instantly breaking cars like Lamborghini, Ferrari etc.

Please choose super-sports of HONDA that always help you drive at full throttle at ease.
