You know it's funny. I've spoken to at least 5 current NSX owners over the last year at various shows and what not. They're all STOKED about the new car.

Couldn't tell you if they'll buy or not, but they're excited that Honda is doing it and doing it different.

This is what gets me about when people say where's the Honda of old. The Honda of old is still here they're still the same company driven by the same ethos, it's the market that's changed. Where's the market of old that not only demanded but gobbled up sportscar disguised as hatchbacks and 8,000 rpm redlines were unheard of at that price point.

We're in a different time a different market and this is how Honda approached New Sportscar eXperimental.

I'm genuinely excited. Porsche doesn't build a car like this at this price, nor does Ferrari, nor does McLaren, hmm but Honda does...

(I don't quite see what peoples problem is)

RedNSX Would Sport or Sport + be better for driving around curves but not on track?

|\|SX For the most part those modes are all about changing power delivery, power output, suspension tuning and even steering feel. Along with some more I might be missing on.

RedNSX I think comparing models and labels is a normal thing to do but ultimately, if you want the new NSx you're going to get it. Interested to hear what the difference between the Sport, Sport + and track modes are.

That doesn't need to be the case and shouldn't. Supercar market is growing and they can scoop up enough of the demand in the category they compete in. It's a good entry-level supercar. Some people who want a Ferrari ONLY want a Ferrari or things views as highly as it

is that the metric for what makes the nsx any good? because that's absurd.

Nonsense, no one is complaining that the current Mustang GT350 doesn't look like the '65. No one is complaining that the new Civic doesn't look like the old Civic...

Again I think much of that is just whining and complaining...

Acura scrapped their plans for the car at least twice, maybe 3 times in order to better tailor it to consumers, yet all consumers can do is complain... FFS.
