This NSX just missed the mark as homage to the old one.

Just feels like there needs to have been 3 cars in between them to see them as part of the same thing.

This comment nails it for me. While the new one looks great and by all accounts is an amazing machine, I feel like it just looks like any other modern supercar. The original nsx really looks like nothing else.

As above, maybe if we had seen it develop into this through model generations I would be more excited about its looks.

I'm a Honda fan from way back, but the new NSX just leaves me a little cold. Maybe it's because the original was designed and built in Japan, with the input of Ayrton Senna, while the new one was designed and built in America, with the input of every barrow-pushing, hipster-chasing marketer in the area. While the original raised the bar and forced the supercar manufacturers to up their game, the new NSX feels more like it's chasing the pack. And struggling.

They should have built a road-going version of the HSV-010 GT, and screw the environmental BS. IMO of course.

I dont have much nostalgia for the classic NSX, in theory it would be a great car to own but my view is a little jaded. maybe because Maerica can get NSX's but not GTRs, so they go nuts on making abominations of the NSX platform.

Ive seen that Jay Leno video and that new car has lots of interesting bits and pieces and even got my a little bit hyped for it. Its actually a supercar i dont mind looking at, for a change.

would sell/10

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
