A high school classmate of mine wanted to sell me his about 10-12 years ago...for $35,000. I weep, I weep...but eventually I compensated by making more money so I could get the Ferrari that the NSX made possible, a nice manual 360 Modena. Still want that damned Acura, though..

Wow man, still in awe with how the older reviews and testing were masterpieces. Thank you for this

My favorite car in the world is the original NSX, I still have a poster of one on the wall in my office. 1997 received a power bump, a 6 speed manual and it's the one I want.

I'm no longer watching any entertainment, or otherwise shows, except Jason Cammisa. Keep it going!

Most of your complaints are things I especially like about this bizarre car and Acura in general; that they go their own way. Stubbornly, indefatigably the Acura-only method. I wouldn’t like that if they weren’t capable of building almost magically capable cars. The first Acura I drove was in 1984, at a dealer-run invite for Porsche owners of a certain age. The sedan I drove was spectacular and I just about gave the rep a heart attack. The last one was a 2018 TLX with vectoring and I drove that one regularly. It was simply astounding how perfectly tuned and developed it was, switching lanes at 100mph like a race car while driving effortlessly around town. Never liked the styling but wow, the driving changed everything.

Jason, keep these coming please! Total nostalgia

I want to be careful to NOT say that I’m left with the impression that this is a bad car. I’m sure it’s a great car. Having said that, it sounds like it’s a more impressive piece of engineering vs just being an impressive car. Sometimes, too much technology corrupts. Excellent job Jason (as ever).

Jason has the best takes on cars and really “gets it”.

Those who have put on better track tires, leave it in track mode, get a science of speed tune, down pipes and exhaust have turned the NSX from Dr Jekyll to Mr. Hyde, AKA, the perfect daily driven supercar, PERIOD, end of statement!!! Years later, Ferrari again, and everyone else are trying to play catch-up. I'm lucky enough to own the 2019 which is awaiting this transformation and a 2022 Type S which is being stored for future generations to admire. Yours was one of the best reviews and appreciate your insight because I felt the same way after tracking it the first time. Would love and can't wait for you to test drive and review the new Type S.

I think this car just added even more appreciation to the old NSX. Trick AWD is great on my wife's SUV, but if I'm buying a sports car for some 'fun' driving, I don't want all this silly nonsense.

"We make it simple" i guess not anymore to keep up with the crowd....Honda has changed the game in so many ways....my first car was a brand new 12miles, 1987 CR-X Si. 93hp haha #80'sRule

God i miss old motor trend on youtube…. :(. Head to head, ignition i miss them so much!

its a different interpretation of what an nsx would be in the current sports car market. its design i was not such a big fan of at first, but after seeing it in person it is a absolute looker and very different from all the other sports car designs imo. honda/acura did a descent job with this car and i think it will only be remembered more fondly as more and more exotic and sports car makers adopt such technologies into their car due to regulations. just like the first nsx, honda was just a bit earlier than everyone else in what everyone else eventually would do, just not accepted in the same ways by the masses.

100% agree with you Jason. As a life long Honda fan this was a complete miss. People will argue that this is a budget Porsche 918 and I'm sure in the next few years it will be desirable but it wasn't the car we asked for. They could have sold the "GT3" version that was a simple twin turbo v6 without the hybird shawd and thrown a 6MT and people would have bought it. It's what we were hoping for but never came

The newer Acura NSX had a lot of very strong and very fresh Supercar competition. The Audi R8, McLaren 570S, Porsche 911 Turbo, BMW M8, BMW i8, Aston Martin Vantage, Lamborghini Huracan, Nissan GT-R NISMO, even the new V6 Ford GT, and any Ferarri. And in the end the spiritual successor to the original 1990 Acura NSX became the Lotus Evora and C8 Chevorlet Corvette.

Sick body kit on that blue civic coupe.

Hey Jason! You said a lot more things in your guesting in the smoking tire podcast since this review. Something about the consistency of the torque vectoring when going on a corner? Was that one of the changes right before it was released? PS waiting for your upload on your e30 vs 190e that was shot in Germany. PSS I suddenly remembered the article you wrote about shipping your VW to Europe and driving it in the ring. How about a Hagerty special on doing something similar like that? Hope you won't burn out doing these videos!

I completely agree with the closing remarks. I wish it was a simple car based on just having a good time. It more closely resembles a civic than an old nsx. I really wish they would have went a different direction with styling.

It's so funny that people are debating whether it's you or not uploading these videos. 😆

As a life long Honda fan, I was massively disappointed to at the "new" NSX design/styling. Jason is right; a huge missed opportunity by Honda to style it in the vein of the original. I realize it's a different world with so many now regulations regarding crash safety for those in AND out of the car(pedestrians), but without being a retro design, they could have styled to allude to the classic and iconic NSX shape. Maybe why sales have been so damn lackluster the entire run of this "new" version.

Yeah, thankfully, Honda teased two new ev sports cars. While they're both under tarps, you can clearly tell one has more traditional front engine proportions, the other is more exotic looking. My money is on a next gen nsx and s2k. Hopefully they nail the styling I'd the next next time around.

I had to laugh as I was watching this. Jason you say "this is a turbocharged engine that has absolutely no turbo lag" I just finished watching (Jason Cammisa on the base 991.2 Porsche 911 Carrera) and quoted from the video was "If somebody tells you such and such turbocharged car doesn't have any turbo lag, ignore everything they've said before, and everything they're going to say after because they don't understand the fundamentals of how an engine works" such a conundrum! lol

@JasonCammisa

Heh, okay you make a good point. The ENGINE definitely has lag. The POWERTRAIN doesn't - because it can use electric torque-fill to mask that lag. The lag is there, it's just covered up. :)

I gotta ask this, Jason: I remember hearing you talk about almost buying an original NSX on Carmudgeon but left disappointed because of numb steering. How did the Zanardi Edition (or maybe a Type S) in this video felt compared to that car that left you wanting more?

I'd soooooo rather have the original NSX. Thanks, Jason!

The more I watch the videos the more I miss this segment

Can anyone explain that bubble popping sounds after it revs up? It sounds really weird to me

If you’re taking requests can we get the 981 GT4 Ignition vid uploaded? 👀🤞🏼 One of your all time greats.

The C8 was exactly what the NSX should of been! Keep the twin turbo v6 to bump the power! Mid Engine, rear drive, limited slip diff, design ques (lines) from our beloved original, keep the weight down and make it available in manual or 8 speed auto! Then target a price of around 70k?! Would of sold like hot cakes all day long. But at $200k.. that's Lambo / Ferrari territory and I'd take one of those over this new NSX any day of the week.

Still have mixed emotions on the 2nd gen NSX. In some ways i think this car was an exercise to see what could be done with all the available tech/running gear. Honda can take all of the crazy tech in new cars, stir it together and make it all work. The other emotion is "Come on Honda" just give us a ripping high revving non turbo engine and that near perfect manual transmission in a 2nd gen that is a continuation of the original.

Big fan here!

I'm hoping he does an updated video on the new Type S with Randy doing a lap time on the Hagerty channel.

It could work if they partner with a brand that makes performance V8s paired with manual transmissions. Toyota is off the list because although they make a great 5.0 V8, it's exclusively paired with a 10 speed automatic transmission. Nissan is also off the list because they make a 5.6 V8, but that's a truck engine. The Germans haven't made an N/A V8 since the W212 E63 AMG, and even that wasn't paired with a manual transmission. Like Toyota, Hyundai had a 5.0 V8, but it was automatic only. The only options are the Americans. Either GM, Ford or Dodge. So it's either Ford's 5.0 or GM's 6.2 (which is more likely since they're already in a partnership to make EVs, and GM already has a MR platform for the C8 corvette), or Dodge's 6.4 for maximum power (the 5.7 is great, but it barely makes 400HP). The question then is, will Honda/Acura do it? If they do it, won't the JDM purists hate on it like they're doing to the MK5 Supra? How many people will actually buy it, assuming they can afford it?

Do you have head to head or just ignition?

I felt somekind of.... alex zanardi reference with the racing suit and wheelchair and you know the nsx being the subject of the video.....almost felt offended by it, but you can crack a joke anytime adam sandler

I lost my shit when the camera zoomed out on Jason in the wheelchair lmao. They did zanardi dirty

@jasoncammisa I just heard you say in an older video "if someone tells you there's no turbo lag, stop listening to them, forget everything they've ever said, and never listen to anything they say in the future"... what did you just say? No lag?

I remember when the orignal Acura NSX sales dropped in the middle of the 90’s and everyone was criticizing the NSX for being a supercar with a Acura badge with cheap interior… Reviews weren’t great and Acura tried to revive it with the 3.2L Now the new NSX is getting the same critic. I have owned Lamborghinis, Ferraris, Audi, Bmw, GTR Nismo, etc… and the NSX is really a supercar that you can daily drive it WITHOUT any stress! It’s easy, fast, comfortable and easy to drive. I like your opinion Jason but The NSX was intended to be a little of the GTR, a Little of the Italian Supercar and a little of a Honda Accord : a well built rear engine everyday reliable supercar The new NSX failed the same way the LFA did : it’s misunderstood BTW I have the same Long Beach Blue with the 2 tone beige/black interior NSX haha

I almost thought you got Alex Zinardi as a guest.

I’m not a car person but I would love to have an NSX some day

I think the next opportunity to make a "Simple, fun" Honda product will be to revive the Prelude nameplate. This could have a special place in my garage.

Man the nsx is the best super car out period !

Your idea of vintage is definitely different from my idea of vintage.

Odds you could do the Range Rover SVR 👀 that one is iconic

RSX-S 06 still fun to wind up and go

Still, the new NSX already aged better than the C8.

But the old NSX was also a super high tech marvel for its time.

The NSX did (and does) play by its own rules. Both cars are stunning by a design language that play to no other design.... which is cool (in my humble opinion). They don't need to be similar. To me, I knew the new NSX was the new NSX. They both are great design exercises for their own era without being a slave to those superfluous design trends. Honestly, if I had super-car money, there is no other exotic I would buy over the NSXs. If you value an exotic performance car experience that will provide years of owner satisfaction, without the onus of expensive repairs and maintenance costs, you cannot ask for a better solution. Also, I've seen a new NSX (in red) in person... and its gorgeous, plain and simple, gorgeous. Are there other cars more beautiful? Probably, but it stands as a great design nonetheless. Honda engineers are brilliant and they aim toward a different set of perimeters than Lamborghinis and Ferraris. It's in a class of its own. It needs to appreciate as such. The NSX HAS to be a exhibition of its technological advances and expertise. Therefore, it HAS to show off the best they can execute while looking toward the future. It can't be and should not be 'old school' with a stick shifter and a V-8. Besides, some V6s do sound sexy (read Ferrari Dino) but yet, it doesn't happen here. Too bad they did not adjust the exhaust note to please the ears as much as they pleased the soul with its throttle response.

If they decide to do a proper “Top Gear USA” you should be a host

slow down with the uploads I can't get any work done 😂

Ok. So, what TV show or network are you applying to that requires you to post all your wonderful videos? I love you on Hagerty, but would also kill for a Top Gear America headlined by you.

I could be wrong, but somehow you looked like enjoying the driving fun & pleasure more when you were reviewing the Honda S800 compared to this new NSX. Am I right, Jason?

I would love a version of that just RWD with the monster twin turbo V6. They could make it like a Porsche GT2. They could also make a light as possible stick shift version like 3300lbs curb weight. I see missed a opportunity with this machine with simpler, cheaper, purer versions

Acura made the antithesis of the NSX and still called it an NSX. Sure the original represented the state of supercars of its day (maybe minus the V6), and the current iteration (gone now, I know), is a car of today. But as Jason says, imagine what they could have done with a basic, mid engine, rear drive, DCT layout. Maybe coming in 1000 pounds less than this car.

I remember when this was released ahead of all the other NSX videos and it pretty much killed all the hype for the NSX.
