The 2017 Acura NSX is expensive, with a starting price of $156,000 — but while it can’t quite reach Ferrari performance, it’s better than you think. Read my column to find out why, or watch the video above.

Is it weird that I thought the NSX in the thumbnail was a kit car?

Maybe it would sell better with the Honda badge. Because racing pedigree in Moto GP, Formula 1, BTCC, JGTC… Even when playing Gran Turismo, I always chose Honda instead of Acura.

That’s just because the JDM models were always better than what we could get in the States. Even our one Type R we ever got was worse.

The original NSX also had a V6, this one is larger, so it counts as upsizing.

I had heard people saying that it was the “worlds slowest supercar” but 0-60 in 2.9 seconds deserves some respect

People misinterpreted Motor’s Trend video title. MT meant that it was the slowest supercar to come to production.

The real reason it doesn’t sell is because of the Nissan GTR which costs a third less and goes as quick if not quicker than the NSX. This car is stuck in the no man’s land, it can’t compete with the Italian exotics but also isn’t quite the performance bargain of the GTR.

Exactly, its a car that doesnt make sense… Too expensive and i think the front isnt very pretty. I also think it should have been more similar to the original NSX. No hybrid BS, RWD and maybe even a manual option, thats what made the original NSX so iconic.

Yeah no problem, a lot of people didn’t get what the title acutally meant. It was kind of a click-bait title.
