Make a vedio as soon as possible bros
When you drove the 911 Turbo S, which launches faster, you didnt have the puking reaction 😅
Portland, JAMAICA in the Building !!!
Made the Acura Badge which soldiers on despite Honda sales going off a cliff for 2022 which is truly very much a shock in the USA same said be true of Toyota.
Tesla has truly upended the USA car market for the better and this vehicle ... sad to see it go ... is proof positive of that. The Tesla Roadster announcement appears imminent tho. No need to buy an airplane once that vehicle hits North America...unless of course that Airplane is a HondaJet made in North Carolina.

I absolutely love this thing
So you getting one of these?😁
Let me make a call
Unexpected MKBHD
You’re in luck because most people don’t.
Awesome car you should get it
Like the LFA, it's one of those cars that will be better appreciated over time long after it's gone.
I agree. This might not be as special as an LFA, but it's more rare. 350 of these versus 500 LFA's worldwide.
@@snakeeyes9246 can't really compare where there was only 500 lfa's made, and where this nsx shares the name with the older models
@@snakeeyes9246 but I agree that they will be really rare after a few years
Nah, LFA has Sound that it might not be matched ever. Nsx wasnt special when it came out and it didnt get much better.
They decided to go with hybrid too quickly, like 3-4 more years and it could have amazing power
There is another NSX coming, Jon Ikeda confirmed it last year.
The fact that this car gets 21 mpg city / 22 mpg highway while making 600 HP is still impressive.
It's because it's a hybrid
it’s hybrid if it made any less it would actually be shameful
🤷♂️ my 550hp V8 gets about 27-30 on the highway so I'd say it's not that impressive.
Big deal. Hellcats can get that too
Until you run 80 mph on the highway with the cruise set in a 650hp Turbo S and average 24+. These guys keep saying the NSX is the most “daily-able” is a joke. They say, “there is no noise lift”... like it’s nothing...
That V6 sounds like something special! Hope to take it on the Autobahn one day
you need to check top speed of type s
Didn’t expect you guys to comment on a Straight Pipes video! 👍🔥🇳🇱
Would love to watch your top speed run
AutoTop the legend love your videos man i would love to see that run😎
Honda V6 always sound special, and it's stock exhaust, imagine with a better one. It remind me the old NSX V6 that sounded like a V12 !
Is it just me or Yuri did actually have more confident sending the NSX through Cliché Corner more than the other supercars?
Definitely. He looked locked in
💯nsx is my jam
Because it’s slow and cheap to replace.
@@markm0000 pardon?
@@markm0000 damn buy us all a type s nsx since it’s so cheap then mark
That front end is a massive improvement.
Exactly, the old one looks too busy by comparison.
Umm looks are cool but the turbos and faster clutch is better
@@miketyson8933 Looks are pretty much what sells these vehicles. Very few people actually USE those tiny performance improvements. Style always comes first when you got cash.
It actually looks like a modern nsx
I'm the opposite I think the front looks ugly compared to previous generation.
Such an underrated car. They're absolutely beautiful. However, once you get into this price range it's really hard not to get a Porsche.
Yeah but maintainence alone on the Porshe is mechanics worst nightmare. But i do agree they should have put a lower price tag on this, but at the price point NSX competes with the 911s turbo and Porshe still cost twice.
I don't know, to me this competes with a mclaren 600LT which is significantly more money. The price actually seems ok.
@@nighthawk0077 I read that the racing nsx uses the exact same engine as the one available to the public. Thats impressive.
Why would you buy a Porche that's literally you can see in every street corner. And the NSX is much more reliable and as fast as that porche.
@Chairman Mao Any major city downtown has porsches every street corner.
They won't crush this, it will probably end up in a Honda Museum.
This is my dream car, they might be discontinued but i promise to myself I will get one of these when I get older
Same for me, good luck 😛
Ik I found out this thing exists just a month ago and I want one so bad
Really love the overall design of this car, it looks like one of those “crazy” concept car posters from the earlier 2000’s, but made real
my dream car. There may be faster, there may be better-bangs-for-your-buck, there may be more luxurious, there might be cars that do literally everything better , but this NSX still bloodly amazing
I fully agree! Best hypercar today!
HONDA OVER EVERYTHING💯💪🏿
Honda spent a lot of money to build the car and the plant. They picked the best of the best employees to build the NSX. It wasn't like the rest of their car where every car was rolling off the line in 48 seconds to making the NSX 10 a day. I am pissed I never got the chance to drive one.
A friend of mine has an NSX, but not a type S. It's nice, but it has little storage, the driver seat lacks height control, no seat ventilation and the head unit is straight out of a civic. It performs fantastic and is beautiful, but there's other cars that are just better daily drivers.
@@weirdshibainu no seat ventilation, what will we ever do my gosh, how did we ever survive without little computer case fans pointed at our ass.
@@Loudlevin You're missing the point. Given the price of the car and it's competition, their too many other choices in the marketplace for this to have succeeded. When the first generation NSX came out it was a great value compared to other super cars of the day. This generation was in many ways a sales failure for Acura.
@@weirdshibainu that goes to a number of sport/performance cars though. No one's gonna cry their ass of paying 3million USD for a LaFerrari just because it doesn't have an infotainment system, seat ventilators, and cup holders or whatever that is.
This car is overhyped. Compared to other supercars - its damn slow
Came from Acura's 4 part series animation Chiaki's Type S Journey and Doug DeMuro's review! Been waiting for your guys' one and I am ultimately impressed and happy by it!!
I've seen two NSX in my life and they are soooo heart pounding to actually see with real eyes. I live in MIami and there are so many supercars here but NSX is always going to be excitement.
They absolutely nailed the styling on this
Such an underrated car. Especially the Type S. Just wish they made a Type R for the finale!
Am I wrong? Or did Yuri send it into cliche corner harder than he ever has before? Anyone remember in early videos when Jakob would send it in a really fast car and Yuri would get all stiff and wide eyed in the passenger seat? Now look at him! Balls big enough to come in a dump truck. Nice. Fearlessly pushing the edge and exploring the outer reaches of grip and handling with AUTHORITY. Well done sir!
RS6 wagon video too
That new front bumper styling is a *huge* improvement. This car looks amazing!
This new one looks so much better
I actually hated the way the last one looked but this one in this color looks like a special car not just some Liberty walk eclipse
I had a 2017, loved it. Was number one on the list at my local dealer until they decided I wasn't (gave it to a related party). My only issue is the infotainment system. Almost inexcusable at this price point to drop in a low res head until shared with the last gen Honda mini van
My uncle bought me a NSX hotwheel toy car when I was 5 years old. I didn’t know what car it was then. The picture was put together after many years ; which Honda looks like a super car. That’s how the original NSX leaves a mark to people who knows it.
I have 3 friends here in south Denver with NSXs and one upgraded to this new one. I think I like the older one better, the 2017, but just barely. One of them has an orange one with the craziest doorjamb wrap I've ever seen. His shop also did the build on my S580 and they're essentially the RDBLA of Denver. Sick cars there
They will never rest in peace!!!! They will be driven for many years to come....thanks for sharing
Amazing car. Terrific review. Other reviewers need to accept that it’s not a drift machine.
terrific review...what are you currently driving?
@@bryanhilton5131 I own a 2000 S2000 and a 2018 Civic Type R.
The latest NSX looks spicy design wise, but the NSX of the 90s just hits different.
Work of art, dream car material. I have yet to see any new gen nsx on the road
I think this is the best thing produced so far that you can daily drive with limitless fun.
I never understood that initial hate for this car when it was launched
Overpriced. Should've been a competitor of Supra
@@growthcountry it’s way faster than Supra.
It was the price, if it was cheaper it would have been a hit.
1. Interior - looks like a Honda ridgeline
2. Sound - needed a V8 or high revving 6 cylinder like in the Porsche GT3
3. Price - C8 is cheaper and for slightly more money, you can in the GT3 territory
@@13asingh what about honda reliability is that something people don't consider when buying a car?
I need more of that intro music !!!
This is a great choice if you want a daily supercar that doesn't scream at everyone on the road. I think that is a unique and valuable combo that will be appreciated more over time.
This NSX looks 3000% better than past models.
Also, I’m shocked by how much time they spent talking about how fast it is. It’s no faster than a bunch of the other supercars they’ve driven, so that was surprising.
It must be that the initial electric 160-200hp arrives straight-away which makes it feel faster, I guess.
The instant power and torque push from the electric motors makes it seem way peppier and responsive at street driving I reckon, that's probably what makes the difference.
damn 3000%
I think it’s something you got to feel for yourself. Different cars with same speed feel different, the steering, handling, suspension, etc…
Honestly if they made this car with a stick shift it would be my dream car.
Amazing car. Absolutely sucks that a major point of conversation surrounding it is the idea of buying it and NOT driving it. I get it, but I hate the idea of cars as long term investments. Super cars are already rich people things, and a car like this being discussed as an investment before it's even out makes me lose all excitement for it because at that point I know that I'll absolutely never be able to drive one. Cool car tho lol
In love with the NSX. i’ll miss it
Dudes... When you have Marques Brownlee commenting on your videos, you know you've made it.
Yuri has responded to my comments before which I think is pretty cool.
Now Jakub has too
Big fan of the styling on this. It's timeless design will look good for years to come. I wish it were lighter though.
Lighter and more power. About 800hp would have been sweet spot.
@@ELECTRICEYEMEDIA this car is very light. it has electric motor plus battery with that amount of addon its very light. 800hp... way too much power. 600hp is a lot. thats sweet spot for power.
Unlike the previous NC1, this model was redesigned by the Japanese. That's why it has a great appearance.
If this type S version was built from the start, it might have sold better and survived longer on the market.
Agreed it was made too late just like how the i8 was made too early
this color looks amazing on this car.
Yes you guys finally got your hands on one! It's NSX Time! This could be the last NSX with an ICE. I could see them going 4 electric motor SH-AWD next generation.
This final version looks the best
To bad this sold so little, I was hired for a photoshoot in Norway but they cancelled the order...great video and cool farewell go the Acura!
That guitar piece was exquisite.
Where did they get it from ?
Its my next car its a must I own a CRX 88 Si B16B, TSX 6 speed , Acura TLX Type S Golden one , This is the next evolutionary step for me. Anything after that is the cherries on top. Porsche 911 GT3 or S
Looks a lot better than the regular NSX especially in that color, looks so stealthy.
This is why i love thstraightpipes. No bias, just pure honest review.
To me the front end looks like it has gone from McLaren inspired to Lamborghini inspired. Good looking car regardless and I prefer the update.
A bunch of people in the comments seem to not understand that this car was an experiment of the technology that Honda had during its conception. The NSX has been berated for being a hybrid, and people are comparing it to a Prius/other fuel sipping hybrids. Does it look/drive/sound/feel like a Prius? I think everyone would agree that it resembles none of those qualities. The only thing those two vehichles have in common is the fact that there is an electric motor(s) and a battery. For the time, the hybrid technology was impressive, and 7 years later, it is not only still impressive, it is also still competitive and relevant. With electric driven vehicles being pushed to become the future, the hybrid system mixed the best of both worlds. A tesla cannot compete the lap times that his car is able to produce, yet, the NSX having a V6 can still compete with a tesla in terms of a straight line. Not many other cars for the price are capable of that. Is it heavy? yeah, and some could say that is one of the faults of this car. But a large majority of these new, next generation hybrid super cars arent necessarily light either. Also, nobody mocked the P1, 918, SF90 Stradale, Regera, or Sian for having hybrid power trains. Yet Acura was still able to produce a vehichle that could stay competitive with multiple of those vehicles listed at half, or a even a third of the price. The interior isnt the nicest, but you shouldn't be expecting an awe inspiring Italian designed infotainment system from an entry-level Japanese luxury auto-manufacturer. I don't think anyone has been very impressed with the Aventador's (and sister vehichle's) infotainment for better half of its existence. The race version of this vehicle was able to set multiple records and win plenty of awards using the same exact engine as the standard version, and now with the Type-S, you are essentially getting the same gas power plant that the race car had mechanically. It is also expensive, but you should realize that maintenance is going to be a hell of a lot cheaper on this NSX than a V10 R8 or some other super cars with exotic engines. Acura was able to manufacture a car with exotic performance at a price that doesnt resemble an exotic car, which was ultimately the goal of the original NSX in the first place. And for that, I believe this car should be at least respected, as it represents the future of what your favorite legacy high performance manufacturer is going to end up producing one day, and eventually, exclusively.
My dream car. So sad to see the NSX leave again. Great video!
Saw one of these in bright orange in a residential neighborhood… such a rare car
I’ll likely never be able to afford one, but damn if this latest version of the NSX isn’t absolutely stunning.
Never say never!
@@hollaz2 you just said that twice
@@mustajabzuberi4916 Never say never!
I definitely think the front clip is an improvement. Wheels could definitely be better, wouldn't mind a slightly bigger rear diffuser either.
Had honda released this from the start and dropped the price a touch they'd of absolutely killed it!
Guy down the street from me owns a white one. This latest refreshed model looks way better than the previous imo :)
This is how the NSX should have looked from the start! Shame that they finally got everything right, and decided to throw the NSX out completely.
Badass review TSP.. glad to see Yuri back in the saddle for this one although I feel like we and he missed out on something special for the GT4 RS. Perhaps you guys will be able to get the GT3 RS when it comes out.
It is one of the nicest looking modern cars IMO.
Acura NSX Type S.
High class quality ride.
May or may not be a true contender against the other super cars, but.
To me, this car is special.
Amazing car, awesome review. You actually can not buy this any more as it was sold out in 1 hour last year.
The listings you see are automated dealer inventory listings when new car arrives at dealership regardless if they are customer ordered car or not. They already going for $300k plus in secondary market and several have sold at over $400k
One'd be crazy to shell that kind of money for this.
This is 100% my dream car. I love it so much and I hope that one day I will be able to get it.
If it originally came out looking like this i think there would be way more hype it. Felt like the last one was trying to look aggressive but it just didn't
Corvette C8 lot cheaper than NSX. Obviously NSX is better than Corvette but can be worth the price difference between them. I don't think so. Also, we have to rethink hybrid lithium battery life. After replacing them can it be pricey
3.5L TT V6 wit 3 electric motors for “only” 600hp?? Idk man. That’s a little much “just” for 600hp. That’s still good power, don’t get me wrong, but idk man. 750hp would sound about right with a power train like that. 600 would be cool with no hybrid assistance
It will be reliable. The engine isnt being pushed at all cause the gtr makes the same power with just .3l more. That tells me it can be tuned while still being pretty reliable.
@@rojiii69420 the VR38 in the GTR is goated for sure. But reliability and hybrid powertrains?? Idk, maybe I’m just hating. But the motor I’m not so much worried about. It’s just that, can you really up the motor’s power like that without potentially harming the electric motors?? Honest question tbh. I’m just skeptical of hybrid performance cars aftermarket potential I guess.
@@AYO_KO Nsx has no aftermarket performance because basically nobody mods this car. Heck I haven't even seen a single one at the track yet. C8 is what NSX should've been and honda should reflect on that.
Right because you def need that extra 150hp driving 38 in a 45 stuck behind some clueless old person. 90% of the time you’re driving within 10 mph of the speed limit anyway so what’s the point.
@@IR-xy3ij great take!!
I used to take my old evo x down those side roads off bronte! So cool to see this car on those roads
I wonder if there's a replica front end available for the non-Type S previous models? If so, I'd buy a used one at some point and add the front clip (and rear too). So much nicer looking imo.
First time I saw this car in person was at COTA and I saw Max Verstapen in the passenger seat.
Not used to seeing Jacob looking so scared on a straight acceleration run. :-)
Purchased my wife a new Acura RDX one month ago and the local dealership had a green 2020 NSX sitting on the showroom. It's was sexy!!!! My Infiniti Q60 twin turbo coupe is sexy, but the NSX is so much more on another level.
Great review guys! Sounds like an epic machine.
My dad has a 94 NSX and it's at least doubled in value since he bought it.. though he got his at just the right time.
He was invited to make a commercial with the NSX Group of Canada back when this new gen was first being released. The group was chatting with the Acura folks who brough the new car for the commercial & they were saying that the car that was brought for the commercial was going to be crushed later. Acura/Honda seem to be careful about having unaccounted cars out there floating around.
Unfortunately all car companies do that with their press and demo cars. They are either crushed or used in movies to get demolished.
I did a Nismo event driving Nismo 370z, Nismo Juke, and Nismo GT-R around Limerock racetrack. They said everyone of those cars were going to get crushed or go to movies sets.☹️😭
@@TenshiR "They are either crushed or used in movies to get demolished. " That's actually a good idea! If the car is going to be destroyed, at least do it in style!
I love this car. Maybe one day I'll own an NSX
Looks better than the C8 at least
If you came to comment that one side of the hood is unlatched… I’m sorry about that. My bad.
I actually had to pause my music, I was so confused. That opening music is the best thing I've ever seen. Car channels using power metal, HECK YEAH
Fast cars = power metal
@@TheStraightPipes What's the name of the intro music?
@@ryanf5234 Fire and Sword by Under Earth
Best Acura right now. Not sure why they didn’t take design language from this NSX TypeS and blend it in the new Integra.
Anyone know the intro music name? Cuz I’m getting something else when I search it
NSX is ok but I still choose a 911 GT3 manual instead. They are rare partly because it is a sales failure for Acura.
Nobody knew it was out
Such a gorgeous vehicle. Such a shame it didn't get the recognition it deserves.
Its not the end of the NSX, just the end of the second gen NSX. There is another NSX coming, Jon Ikeda confirmed it last year.
Let’s see
Next one will be an EV, or maybe a hydrogen fuel-cell EV. Honestly, I won't be shocked if the new NSX ends up being the first "reasonably" priced EV supercar, just like how this generation was the more affordable hybrid supercar, and the first gen was an affordable supercar competitor.
Prelude Type S? They didn't come to north america but there was a Prelude Type S that had a 10% power bump over the regular prelude either base or Type SH model(SH was a hydraulic positive/negative vectoring differential system). So the regular Prelude had a 200hp 158ft/lbs 2.2L and the Type S had 220hp and 163ft/lbs. Intake polishing and other breathability mods did the work.
Love this thing. Miss it already.
Frankly speaking, they limited the sales , because the price would have killed it. Honda back in the 1990s built sportscars for the masses. The people in this video could probably not afford this car. This car is not meant for the real world. Today's are more crowded and the speeds are slower. Six hundred horsepower is insane. You would only two or three gears. Honda needs to bring back cars like the real Integra, Prelude, Del Sol, CRX. and the civic
If I won powerball this car would be my first purchase. Love this thing!
so not interesting
4:41 it ate a Mario star
The interesting thing to me is that the Twin Turbo V6 Hybrid is no longer a rarity, especially with the new Toyota Tundra having them. I am very curious to see a Tundra swap and tune into a supercar chassis as that would be very interesting.
Acura has had the V6 TT Hybrid since 2016. A Tundra truck isn't even in the same class as a supercar and it came out in 2022. Plus the Artura and the 296GTB 2023 model Mac and Ferrari are following the NSX platform (TTV6 Hybrid) . Honda ahead of the game as always. Ha! Ha!
Supercars don't really faze me, but this thing is gorgeous!
The Type S is the car that the most recent generation could’ve been all along. I will miss it dearly.
Welcome back Yuri!
It is some amazing engineering, like the Civic Type-R, just at this price the exotics buyers just didn't seem to want this. I hope they keep making them, maybe make it a plug-in with even more electric power?
Great review. Beautiful underrated car. Looks like the Lambo Reventon a bit no?
It’s a great car but doesn’t sound nearly good enough to justify the price , the same money will get you a 991.2 GT3 which screams
Z06, N/A V8 160k
911 not only sounds better, but is also much faster
@@IR-xy3ij Not all 911... This NSX is way faster than any Porsche except the 992 Turbo S and the GT2RS.
But it's faster on track than the Turbo S.
For a stock exhaust this NSX Type S sound very good and special. For a TTV6 it also rev high which is vvery good.
@@Luke-cb3ly There are a lot of N/A V8 that sound a lot better than the Z06 for way less money. The E92 M3 for exemple, sound way better than almost any Z06 due to it's high reving nature Motorsport competition engine. And ITB on the M3 is on another level again.
Also the old NSX V6 sound better than the Z06 imo, that very hhigh revving V6 sound like a V12 while being twice less the weight.
You won't want that car when they are finished with it, it will go to a training center for about 20 years and be used as a training repair vehicle. There was one at the Alpharetta training center for a long time and was torn apart quite a few types, people took it to lunch, it was for a lack of a better term, the town bicycle.
Its so much better than a lamborghini
And muxh realiable and cheaaper
It looks and sounds great.too bad this wasn't on launch
Acura made one hell of a machine. I bet the value on these will skyrocket
It’s a truly impressive technologically advanced machine that also looks fantastic!!
Nice car, just about $40k too much. Why would you pick this car over a new Corvette Z06?
Cuz it’s a Honda nsx, it’s an actual Supercar
@@ujjwalkaushik4664 +1
@@ujjwalkaushik4664 lol yet that Z06 is faster to 60 and crushed this car on Car and Drivers Lightning Lap. Like it wasn’t even close 😂
BRING BACK THE CL TYPE S !!!! I used to own 3 of them I would love to see the new TLX Type S in coupe form !
Nsx is always beautiful
