    Real talk. What do you think about hybrid supercars? This was filmed before McLaren announced their new car so forgive the "predictions" that came true 3 days later. HUGE thanks to my Patreon Supporters for making this possible. Snow is on the way and I hope we can have a proper snow drive in it and get a little drifty.

      I think they're just so cool. When the first hybrid supercars came out (Porsche 918, Mclaren P1, Ferrari LaFerrari), I was fascinated by the tech inside the cars. I also think it's pretty neat that they can get relatively decent gas mileage. As we move forward to an electric future, hybrid cars are the best way to get the best of both worlds (Instant torque and of course, noise). Btw, I love your channel!

      This is necessary. I wish we had more performance hybrids. My daily is a 2013 BMW ActiveHybrid3 (or 335ih) and it's insane having 350hp that can still get 40 to the gallon on the freeway. I want more like this.

      As a Prius owner, the NSX would be at the top of my list if I had supercar money. Japanese reliability, eAWD for snow, 0-60 in 3s, and a guy at a Cars and Coffee said it gets 30mpg with cruise control on the highway.
      It feels like: economy when you need it, supercar when you want it, can you test long distance economy?

      Of course it's good. And those who say that the NSX is not in the competition, let them see this as an example among many others. Honda are on the top with Porsche, Nissan, and AMG recently in GT300. And Honda also won the official FIAA SGT Super GT 2020 on the GT500 category too. And that's just the beginning.

I agree that taking these cars out for a drive (or going for a walk in a nature preserve) is great therapy during Covid times. Unfortunately winter hit Chicago hard for the last month and they have been hibernating in the garage. Looking forward to your next videos with the NSX. Make sure to get some blow off valve sounds captured as those are a really fun element of driving the car, plus the amazing handling in the twisties.

    Such an underrated car in my opinion. Also the exterior is beautiful, the interior typical honda interior thats the only downfall but I would still would want to own this car. The performance is perfect for for almost any given scenario

    16:23 I wondered that exact same thing. I was doing virtual school for about nine months, and everybody had stopped talking to me. I was like you, i just sorta... Existed, without any outside interaction, and I got REALLY weird. I don't have any youtube following either, so I felt really isolated. I finally went back to school concerned for my own mental health and I couldn't communicate with people, i had no social skills. Now after about a month and a half of school, I've gotten better, but I'm still not quite at the level i was before the pandemic... So I get the situation you're in, and I sympathize with you.
    It'll get better, I'm sure

    Having driven an NSX here's my take.
    I have a love/hate relationship with the car. On the one hand, the power is beyond words. I got back in my RS3 afterwards and it felt like an A3. However the other thing that truly blew me away was the ride quality. Along with some very comfortable seats (which were very broken in since the tester I drove had 50K on it), you could use it everyday on the worst of New England roads, without compromising handling. Truly impressive. The torque from the electric motors is amazing. The induction noise is great, but still leaves something to be desired in my opinion. I wish the exhaust were more vocal and had a little over run because without it, it all just seems synthesized.
    Now the bad news. The overall feel of the car IMO is basically the same as an off the lot TLX. I know that every manufacturer borrows parts from the parts bin (case in point the R8 has the same garbage shift paddles as my RS3), but it seems that Acura's design, parts and materials still don't compare to Porsche, Audi, Lamborghini ETC. And I'm sorry but at their original ask of 180-200, it just didn't "feel" like a car of that caliber. The performance was, but the pedigree wasn't. It reminded me of how the BMW i8 starts off life as a $150k car yet they're for sale all day for less than half, and I get the same feeling from the NSX. And the cupholders? Jesus christ guys. Wasn't this designed in AMERICA? Where we have big gulp drinks? This is not stuttgart in 1980. Complete afterthought.
    Comparing it to other cars I've driven (particularly 1st gen R8 V10, Huracan, AMG GTS), the NSX electric motors is certainly the party piece. However it's obviously no where near as sharp as a Huracan nor does it have the theater of the 10 cylinder cars. And IMO the long nosed AMG has an interior head and shoulders above what Acura can muster.
    In my mind it's a great car, for someone who want's GTR (or better) performance, supercar looks, and Honda reliability. You could use it everyday which was the original ethos of the first NSX. Just make sure you get the car at the right price. Acura told me the tester that I drove with 50k on it only had one repair, a blown, strut, and that was after doing multiple track events at Watkin's Glen! So I wouldn't rule an NSX out of my future, if it ever gets below $100k...

    NSX is so underrated.. some day people will start to appreciate the specialness of the car when it's long gone. They only sold 6 in January and 120 all last year. I don't really have any large complaints about the car except the 100% electronic world takes some getting used to when coming from the mostly analog 6MT e92 m3 and the 14 gallon gas tank is a little too small because i'm not getting the greatest gas mileage.

    I always admired the original NSX for it's purity and simplicity. My first thought on this generation was they made it too complex. Put that aside, though, and this car looks like a lot of fun to drive, with a more conventional driving position than any other supercar.

  • @NoHope_

    Anyone who calls the nsx slow is 5 and never been in a car before, 0-60 in what is it like 2.8 seconds, that is mind blowingly fast, just because it’s 2 tenths slower around the Nurburgring doesn’t change the fact that car is ungodly fast in a straight line and still handles better then 99% of the cars on the road, if you’re worried cause the car is slightly slower around a Track to the point where it’s un noticeable you care way too much about the brochure and less about the car it’s self. This car is not the bmw i8 where it’s slower then the entry level m car yet is 10x the price, and I’m a bmw fanboy and I know tedward is a big fan of them too, and I’m sure he’d agree to some extent, that car was a massive disappointment, this car is actually fast not just a good looking car yet seems too be almost lumped in with the i8 cause it’s hybrid yet people love the shitty quality control Tesla for the same reason the nsx is hated and I don’t get that.

    How the hell can anyone seriously sit there and say that 'this isn't as good as a 458 Italia'? It sounds amazing, it's ferociously quick by the looks of it, it looks great. As an all new, clean sheet design for Honda, it's a wonderful effort.

    It ain't all about the spec sheets and lap times, it's how the car feels and how you feel when you drive the car, nobody could tell the difference between 3 sec 0-60 and 2.7 sec 0-60.
