- The NSX launch as a 2017 model in 2016. From all the reviews, it didn't seem to impress too much. A lot of people had lists of things that could have been done better and for 2019/2020 Acura has made right a lot of those wrongs! In this video, I thoroughly go over the 2020 Acura NSX and show you why this updated hybrid supercar is NO JOKE!

Sorry for the delay everyone. I set the upload time to 7pm instead of 7am by mistake. Thanks for watching!
Also, who wants to see me review an original NSX?! If this video gets 3,000 likes, I will review it!
Cheers, mate! 😎 Great video! 💖
Lightning Farron Thanks!!
Forrest's Auto Reviews I was holding on to my couch when you were driving thru the twisties 😬
@@forrestsautoreviewsofficial I like your reviews, you remind me a friend of mine, so when I'm watching your videos, It's like spending an amazing time with my friend ! As you stated, this NSX is way under rated ! Nice work as always !
LET'S GET HIM TO 3,000 LIKES!!! WOOT! WOOT! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Yes! For the price and reliability alone I would by an Acura NSX over it's competition. A criminally underrated car.
Very well put!!!
Lol you are not in the same universe, you don't think about reliability at that price
@Anthony Smith lol no lexus is also a real luxury brand
@Anthony Smith like what is he said a Porsche 911 or an Mercedes benz are terribly unreliable they aren't and you can cover the bill otherwise warranty
@Anthony Smith that lexus has a nice v8
This is absolutely gorgeous. I've never seen the new NSX in person but they say cars look better in real life, so it's probably insane.
I've seen a couple of them in person, it looks even better.
Easily one of the best supercars on the road today! Getting mine next summer. Already ordered.
StealthC1 how much down payment?
congrats bro
The lead time is 1 year?!
How much was the final cost?
Good for you bro enjoy it
Your reviews are beyond fantastic.
It's sad to see that some people underrate the nsx.
In fact, as you said, it's so technologically advanced which is characteristic to the old nsx.
With this video, I hope, you'll be able to change some minds about this car.
Well done Mr.Forrest !
Your heavy exasperated breaths let us know that thing is literally taking your breath away. So awesome!!!
I bought mine over a 570S because I wanted a car that was actually reliable. Plus I wanted to keep the JDM theme while having it parked next to my GT-R.
Wow, you have both NSX and GTR, a very lucky man bro. 🙂👍
It's actually US made, which makes it stranger that Americans aren't more proud of this car
The problem with Acura they don't advertise their cars. Acura needs to advertise this car seriously, it will crush all the super cars
This has to be the simplest and easily the best review for this car I’ve seen.
My first time watching a review of the new NSX. I didn't know it was so fast in a straight line. It took off like a rocket!
Great review!
@Vinny Booboo Kind of lacking for an AWD system don't you think.
Wow, Forrest! Fantastic review as always and such a nice car! This is how you know you've made it to the big leagues!😊😎
Lol yeah yeah. I can’t wait to get where you guys are!
yes I would get an nsx over a porshe or McLaren...the McLaren has all kinds of relibilty issues and porshes are everywhere...the nsx is rare, amazing looking. very advanced and will not be in the shop.
what about a c8 thats 1/3 the price 60K removable targa roof standard and available convertible. mid engine with waaaaay better infotainment system and front nose lift. the nsx is nice but for 3 times the price with the c8 matching the nsx performance in the quarter mile and 0-60 numbers its a no brainer....
@@besthighlights7607 Bro, stop doubting people's opinions, no one asked!
Broke mentality
@@besthighlights7607 c8 doesnt have awd. Some people want AWD. If the c8 had it than it would be CRAZY.
Had McLaren - piece of crap. SO unreliable and $$$$ to maintain. Got rid of it for a Cayman GT4 - a terrific car. Now I have the NSX - Best of all so far. As for the C8 - looks like a teenager made the design while doodling in class!
Best NSX review on UA-cam. This car is so special. Instant classic. Stunning design. The sound is music.
The best review I have seen on the new nsx ,and I am a big fan of the new and old nsx I have a 92nsx for the last 26years ,great job keep the reviews comeing😎
I will definitely be getting this car in a few years. Thanks for the review!
Amazing review. I love all the work you put into these and it shows. So many details explored. Thank you.
YES, FORREST! You did did your thang with this review!!! Such an excellent job. Loving the "subtle" updates Acura made to the NSX, and I am so glad that you're able to test it out!!! Your driving section was so invigorating. Lol
To much more success, Forrest!! A proud supporter. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Man your reviews are super nice. The POV style and those night/day comparison shots are pretty unique. I like them
Thanks Danny! I appreciate stopping by!
I have to admit. Having sold Acuras back in their best years 1997-2000, and having driven all but the latest generation of the car, one thing was made very clear. It is still an NSX. The engine sounds just like it used to but with the hiss of waste gates. It was an engineering marvel back in its day and for sure is now with its new hybrid drive tech! I love how it looks and if I ever had this kind of money I would have to get one... I also remember the sound of the car giving me goosebumps just as you got!! 😂😂😂 They are amazing machines and I wish that Acura would get all of their cars back to this spine tingling VTEC cross over sounding coolness that they used to have. The NSX still has what they were all about back in the days... again you did an awesome job and I watched from start to finish!! Keep up the good work man!!
You’re an excellent car reviewer. My favorite on UA-cam. Keep up the great work.
Thanks! 😭
This is among the best all around NSX review I have seen and I've following Honda/Acura for a long time.
Typos galore...among the best all around Acura NSX reviews I've seen.
This is an excellent review! You gave us a true feel for what this car is like to drive. Best review yet. Thank you.
Best review I've seen on the NSX!! You're amazing!!
Fantastic review! And thank you for giving it the love and respect it well deserves
i don't know what it is but your reviews just hit different!! Keep up the great work.
This was probably my favorite review of the updated NSX. The one single thing I would really complain about this car is simply the price, even then I'm very conflicted because it is so advanced and so well designed, with very few and minor drawbacks. The only car I can think of that I would really have a hard time pitting against it imo would be the C8 Corvette, but not as it stands right now with only the Stingray but rather with the Z06 that we still have yet to learn more about. Where as the next C8 will be more powerful and generally better performing than the Stingray, I suspect the NSX will still handle better due to the front electric motors, and it's still a blisteringly fast and attractive car. I also don't think it sounds as bad as so many people claim. Great review, and idk what it is but that camera view while you were going through those twisties showed how well it handles much better than most other videos
I love it even more now after watching this great review!
This car has gotten so much unfair criticism. Its a spectacular machine, and so unbelievably gorgeous
The "helmet" cam POV made this one of the best NSX reviews I've seen. I felt like I was driving the car. Love the enthusiasm and realness (and thoroughness). Oh, and the quality of the shots? Rad+. Thanks for taking me on a drive with you! 😊
Oh.. that colour - wow!!
Thanks for the rollercoaster ride... that thing is amazing
Glad you enjoyed it!
Both you and raiti’s ride just confirmed nsx is an awesome car hopefully acura can trickle most of this tech into the new tlx in 2021.👍🏻
Most of the tech? In a $50k car? Yeah, hope is the word...
c8 is better in every way
Best Highlights i will give chevy credit for making a supercar at a affordable price but thats about it i wouldnt touch any domestic brand to me most of them are junk. By the way gm just stop selling the c8 due to a recall with the frunk.
Just started following you. Came across your videos the other day! I really enjoy your reviews, keep it up!!
Best car review I ever seen! Well done my dude!
Hi Mr. Forrest. Actually, you are my first comment I made to anything on social media. Old school guy but just want to say how professional and honest you are in you review of the NSX. Awesome car. My take-away from this is Acura has incredible this engine/drive train/braking technology all woven into one technology that WORKS. Like you can hear what's going on with the engine, waste-gates, ev mode, etc..and it all works as a single operating system. Think I need to buy a t-shirt from you! hah. Thanks
Great review, subscribed! This car is so gorgeous and amazing. Amazing 👌👌
Congrats Forrest on having the preledge of reviewing this beauty. Excellent detailed review. I really enjoy your content. Keep up the great work.
Thank you so much!
A detailed and nicely delivered review. I wish you also covered the quality of the sound system though.
The sounds it makes when creeping sounds like a tron orchestra of angels playing harps lmao 11:35
Great review! Traded my ‘17 McLaren 570s for a 2019 thermal orange NSX and loving it. Hard to beat the AWD and hybrid motors (although miss those McLaren doors).
sca276 excellent choice, and this car is daily driving car with low maintenance, period!
sca276 thanks for the heads up. I was contemplating on purchasing a McLaren 765LT but after reading your comment and watching this video, I’ll get an NSX.
the c8 is faster 0-60 and its 60k .. 100,000 dollars less lol targa top standard ,two trunks, better highway MPG ,quarter mile times are the same. Hard top Convertible available , GPS programmable front nose lift available and dual clutch transmission. the c8 is better in every way and it sounds better too :) and it comes in orange lol
@@besthighlights7607 the C8 has less horsepower than the NSX and the corvette is only 3 mph faster than the NSX but the NSX has an insane torque and acceleration
Amazing review!
Great review on the new NSX by far! I used to own a 1996 NSX-T miss it dearly. What camera did you use to shoot this? Looks awesome!
Great review, and your roof versus lipo comment made me laugh! Would love to experience one of these as Ive been lucky enough to be an owner of the NA2 NSX for the past 16yrs .... interesting too how on tick over it has a very similar exhaust note ... I look forward to your review of the original too!
Awesome vid bro! NSX all the way! Big fan!
Great review bruh!
IMHO you only missed one thing, that awesome sound system
Thanks I'm looking forward to your next review , great job
Awesome review and love all the detail you went into, thats a sub from me 👍🏽
Dig the content! Keep up the great work.
Awesome review! Awesome car as well!
Love this car! Awesome review Forrest.
Thanks Kevin! I appreciate you watching sir!
A good , thorough review!
Solid review! Thank you for sharing!
Best video yet. True dream car.
This car will outlast its competitions
Hey man. Great video! That colour! WOW! ALSO besides companies giving you press cars what car do you actually drive?
Great review, great commentary about the NSX.
Them vents at the back integrated into em lights.... No one has highlighted that aspect. Love your attention to detail....
Would love to see the inclusion of some cinematic gimbal shots kinda integrated b roll via a gimbal as you talk us through some of the features
3:59 lypo not found
Lmao but for real that line was just as exotic as this car 🔥🔥🔥
I love this car and it popped up in my reccomended
My ultimate dream car. Would order mine in black with white interior. Awesome video 🙌🏻
Super dope man! Great work 👍
Thanks man!! 😃
Electric motors does everything for this car! My MDX has a similar version for the hybrid system, drives likes a dream
Great review man..very proffessional
nice car, great review! great job! greetings from austria🤗
Same lol
Exceptional review man. Agreed totally underrated. But guess what it will be highly sought after when it's a classic.
Great review of a great car!! I really appreciate the regard you have for this car! I also really appreciate how thoroughly you familiarized yourself with the details. Certainly one of the best reviews I've seen. Great job!!
As an aside; despite the car being a great value for what you get, I suspect the price is largely responsible for the anemic sales. Honda/Acura is a mass market brand so it's hard to get comfortable with the supercar price. I think Chevy has the right idea with the price point of the C8. I hope to acquire an NSX soon... I think it's going to become a very very collectible car since it's so relatively rare.
Don't be afraid to give it throttle in the curves. Our rdx is the same way, it prefers to be under throttle. It kind of grabs the pavement if that makes sense. Very nice review!
This amazing car worth every penny for sure
Yes it’s truth worth every single penny
It’s even better than the C8 Corvette
@@dedc0ma724 So Much better than the Corvette. The Corvette looks like a bug
This is my first time at your channel and it was an interesting review, but here are a few comments:
1) Your tester had just about every option and would list for around $200,000. However, one of the interesting aspects of the NSX that no one talks about is that, especially starting with MY2019, you could order the NSX bone stock and you would be fine. Except for the carbon ceramic brakes, every other option is aesthetic (carbon fiber and/or alcantara). One of the mistakes that Acura made, IMHO, was not supplying stock cars for review. The competition changes dramatically between $157,000 and $200,000. The other point is that this car typically has a factory discount of $20,000 (MY 2019 for example) which makes it an even better buy. Used deals are even better. You are beginning to see used MY2019s with decent options and low miles break under $130,000.
2) This car also has Android Auto, unlike Porsche which only has Apple CarPlay
3) Acura spent a lot of time on airflow on this car so no wing would be needed
4) The 9 speed is best thought of as 1st gear for launch control and 9th for cruising, with the 7 gears in between that you would use most of the time
5) Storage: like so many reviewers, you talk about storage space without using a travel bag or anything else for people to get a sense of the space. Love to see if you could fit two airline overhead bags in the back or a regular golf bag. Remember that space is relative. A small space designed for my needs (Acura claims to have designed the trunk for a golf bag) is better than larger space that does not suit my needs. For example, I’d much rather throw my golf bag in a trunk that put it in and pull out of the back seat of the Porsche Turbo.
6) There are a couple of big points with 0-60 times in this car. First, because initial launch is with the electric motors, launch control in this car can be done any number of times with no stress to the transmission. Second, because the electric motor in back is simply there for torque fill, this car in the real world is probably going to feel faster than other turbo-charged cars because it literally does not have any turbo lag.
7) This car will handle the curves better than just about any other car because the electric motors in front provide true torque vectoring. This car pulls you through the curve
8) You are late to the game in terms of reviewing this car and, as such, it would be nice to mention things no one tends to mention. This car is seriously complex! Even an oil change is complex and expensive! Many of the production techniques used in this car are cutting edge. All of this means that some repairs, particularly if you get into an accident, can only be made at the factory and the factory is actually setup to repair the NSX. Speaking of which, should you blow the engine out of warranty, that will cost you around $90,000! I’d think twice about anything that would void the engine warranty, like the Science of Speed JB4 that takes the HP up to 700hp
9) In a similar vein, you mention McLaren, but not the 800 lb gorilla in the room: the C8 Corvette. One of the knocks on this car is that all the tech in this car has not produced a vehicle that is particularly outstanding in terms of most performance metrics used. Both are mid-engined, the Vette has more storage space, a removable top standard, and has a 0-60 time just .2 seconds slower than the NSX. But the Vette is a third of the price. I think the Vette raises value issues for the NSX, R8 and the Turbo. I’ll grant that these cars might be better than the C8, but are they 3 times better than the Vette??? I doubt that.
Best of luck
You are dead on!! Other than some weight savings the 49k worth of options does not improve the driving feel of the car. Agree HONDA should have put the basic cars in the showrooms and just have the available options hanging on the wall like Chevy did with the C8.
I actually knew all the details you mentioned, unfortunately my review would be over an hour going over all the technical details. 😕
As far as the vette is concerned, I should be reviewing it mid June and I’m excited to see how it compares.
excellent points. the original concept of the NSX was the affordable everyday reliable super car. they blew it. take out the elect, take out 500lbs and sell this ACURA (and it will never have the brand name of the exotic toys) for $70 to $80k and it would have worked. now these 150k to 200k things are sitting.
Come again?
@@justthink5854 i’m tired of people saying this car should be 70-80k. this car is priced around what the original nsx was. In 1992 nsx’ sold for around 80k….that is 161k in 2022 money.
Funny how you say these cars are sitting and no ones buying. The values of these have gone up. They sell more than msrp now…5 years later.
This car did what the original nsx did, gave you next level experience for a fraction of the price. The next hyrbid supercar up in 2017 was over a million dollars.
Did u also think a new 911 turbo im 2022 should cost 95k like it did in 1991? Lolol
Also..the badge means nothing at this level. Nobody calls a dodge viper just a 150k dodge.
Nobody calls a ford gt a dumb 500k ford.
Does an audi have the brand name to sell a 200k car? While selling 40k 4bangers?
These cars are all rare, the badge isnt as a big a deal, its about rarity.
Great review, amazing car
Great review, I subscribe
Yes! Yes! Yes! You nailed it! What I've been saying all along. Everyone is misremembering the Gen 1 NSX. When it came out it was a very high tech car. But that tech has become old and ordinary and everyone views it now as some bare basic, no-frills, sports car. It WAS NOT!
Getting one soon! Can’t wait
any update?
Excellent! Thank you! Drive Forrest Drive!
Thank you Forrest !
Great Video!
Good Video as always! Question though; What is the Clutch pedal on the floor used for?
Just a foot rest
Wow..... since 2017 NSX has changed a lot. Impressive
I would take the NSX. The reliability, its precision in handling, and clean power would put a smile on your face for decades to come.
good stuff buddy.
The NSX looks better than all of the competitors you mentioned!
very nice video, like your voice and content ~
Looks sick!
Love the review i got ,y first look at one in ann arbor last week. It was dark green and mean
Cool!I really want this🥰
Check avatar left..... Those of us who own this car have known how good it is for years......funny how everyone is just figuring that out now.....typical of something that is ahead of its time......I've driven mine as a daily driver through two Saskatchewan, Canada winters where it regularly hits -30C and below....snow, ice, freezing rain.........this car doesn't care. Bulletproof. Not one issue. Try that with any other supercar.....oh yeah, I've heard the comments...R8......Huracan.......blah blah blah........someone put the money they don't have where their mouth is and roll the dice with their +$200K..........hahahahaha..........I'm not a gambling man, hence, Acura/Honda.........let's see how it works out for ya.....
Lee Douglas there is a guy here in Edmonton who drives his Lamborghini all winter. Even takes it out ice racing.
Awesome can’t wait to own one
im a honda guy.. maybe the only thing i would exchange this for would be the porche.. but i drove this in vegas on a track.. and its on a different level.
Okay you drove the heck out of that Acura at Ortega
😅
I would buy it like other people said because of the reliability and technology alone. After owning a Range Rover and a 7 series BMW I bought a Hyundai Equus Ultimate model; I have the one that has the refrigerator in the back. It has been a great car very reliable smooth ride don't have to spend 7 thousand dollars a year keeping it on the road like range rover and BMW, I've driven it now for 5 years only had to replace the alternator labor and parts were 900 bucks. European cars have nicer materials in the cabin but are very expensive to maintain.
Nice review
Please make a review in 2020 m340i, rear wheel drive
Dude you need put that against a McLaren 570s awesome content
Can’t decide about this beast or corvette c8. Wish me luck 2020!
Yeah, I talked to an owner at Maryland International Raceway, tracking his NSX. He told me he bought it by accident and glad he did. He was telling me he would drag race this all day and race it and drive it back home without any problems compared to his R8 and other high end that ran into problems all the time. Car was mean ASF. Underrated, looked over because the "H" badge
Wish I can accidentally buy one
Nice car. Definitely getting one
Definitely want to see what updates are....
Nsx is ahead of it's time! I can't wait for the first line of hybrid 911s or Ferraris (suddenly the nsx weight will be right on par with the rest of the hybridise super cars) and then suddenly the New NSX will do what the gen 1 NSX did it will give same technology and performance that Porsche Lambo and Ferrari will give you but for half of the price! I would love to own one! And yes I would delay the sh*t out of it!! I love the looks and the idea that it's so technologically advance!! Ps grate video
Love how this car blows people's mind's.
Love this car over any supercar out there...just wish I could afford one to experience it😣
Can always buy one of those "drive a supercar for one day" birthday gifts for yourself lol =)
Will be selling my '19 TO - 2200mi. Best car I ever owned! Had McLAren and Porsche this car stomps them!
