These 0-60 and 1/4 mile videos are what made Edmunds. Keep them coming guys!
I drove it, loved it, and then bought it.
j s writes UA-cam comments, like me.
Same thing I did
Same here. White, 2019! I love it. Unlike anything else in it's price range. It feels special.
did the same. it was either this or gt3. but as far as everyday driving and owning a dedicated track car, NSX was far better choice
@@alwayspls this just has the cool factor
I miss Carlos and love his review. This one is spot on. Love it! Thanks man! 👍👍
Love this video, quick and to the point, data results, good shots of car and sound. This is all I ask for, I don't need the fluff that Motor Trend delivers
I couldn't care less what any mortal says this car is amazing truly an engineering marble.
Todd Medium Wellington is beautiful in red so sexy 😍
Yes it's a marble. A really sloppy and crappy marble.
Todd Medium Wellington its okay.
for me it's one of those cars that others don't like, but I can't seem to get enough of.
*Marvel
An engineering marvel
Man, i love the new NSX. It looks good, sounds good, and i love the interior design. Not to mention it's fast. Someone give me 200k please?
Wait for the used one, with Honda's reliability you should save about 50% if you waited 4 yrs.
Wade H yeah true. Wouldn't be surprised to see the around 80/90k in a few years.
Lucas Arthurs i want to win the lottery so can buy this nsx dont care if is a use one is sexy as fuck😍
actually because this generation flops so much, the resale value may be even lower in 4 yrs
Lucas Arthurs 200k, i rather get nissan gtr with AMS Performance upgrade.
Glad to see you back Carlos. Never understood why you dropped down the pecking order at MT, you were always the best. Those cars deserve better than Camissa.
Carlos, we want to see you take these cars on track. Great review and good to see you back in front of the camera. Too bad you and Randy can't team up
I think the Nsx is way ahead of its time. Maybe in the next 3-5 years we can really appreciate this technological marvel.
love Carlos.
no homo
He sells coke during the evening
Love the reaction. Honda never disappoints.
Fascinating that launch control drops the difference between the standing and rollout times from half a second to two tenths.
Finally some good edmunds videos! WE WANT LONGER VIDEOS!
Many moons ago when you guys shut down Inside Line and changed formats (to something a lot more sterile), I unsubscribed. But now that you have Carlos and gone back to a more interesting script, you've convinced me to re-subscribe again. I'll be honest, Carlos is a huge part of it because he's extremely watchable and makes these videos interesting. There's nothing worse than 10 minutes of monotone drone listing off boring stats from a sheet. Having a great host with lots of personality with a talent for being on camera is key.
Whoa Carlos is with Edmunds now? Subscribed!
Thanks for the sub!
CARLOS!!!! Best car reviewer, period. NSX - sexy as hell!!! Sounds amazing. Looks amazing. Goes amazingly.
Every NSX has been my dream car... The first NSX was already a sexy, practical, reliable, somewhat affordable supercar classic. Though not as "groundbreaking", this thing stays true to its practical roots, while upping the ante in terms of style, performance and eco-tech.
This is one of the most amazing Cars of all time... even you only look at numbers!
underrated
I'm a simple man, i see larlos cago, I click.
This, like the Dodge Viper before it, needs a price adjustment. At $100k this thing is just unstoppable. At $200k, so many other vehicles one would rather have.
If one has had any vehicles at 200k you'd also understand cars at that price range spend a lot of time getting expensive services. The Viper was a winner and took on cars well above it's price range. It was a bargain for the price.
The NSX gives you reliability which in the context of a test is hard to quantify. Ownership is what gives people an idea of what they're buying. Reliability has to be engineered as well. Suffice to say the 911 and GTR are the only ones close to the NSX in terms of that.
This car will be around 100k within 4 yrs, just wait for the used one.
Blake Swan i need to start playing the lottery to buy one of this beautiful nsx 😍
vidurc yeah.. except a huracan and a 911 are extremely reliable cars. Virtually no issues what so ever no matter how hard you drive them so the reliability edge u think the acura has is non existent.
what would really make the nsx sell would be a 100k price tag. Remember when the r35 gtr when it came out and was 60k destroying 200k cars? its affordability is one of the things that made it such a desirable car.
Sure. Keep telling yourself that. The 911 is reliable to an extent. I know owners who are constantly getting things fixed on their cars. The Huracan is a terrible car when it snows here. Some owners who have tried using it as a daily haven't exactly done well. The guy traded his Hurracan for the NSX.
The Huracan's have had transmissions issues galore. Just like the old Gallardo. Everyone claimed it was bullet proof too until the clutch went out at 5k miles.
The reliability edge the NSX has is still very existent. Especially if an owner actually uses their car. The dealerships that have no upmarked the NSX are the ones selling them just fine.
Good work Carlos
Good work Edmonds. Hired the right writer. Great review Carlos!
Love the short videos man! 👍
That thing is sick!!!
Carlos is a much better host then the guys motortrend is using.
Jason is quite annoying but I think Jonny is fun to watch.
Shuffle3956 So apparently we're still using gay as an insult.
Or rather, compliment
Opinions vary. I think he's a dork! And that little stupid laugh while running the quarter made me want to throw something at the television in the hope it would hit him. And it's "than", not then!
Well Jason is no longer with motortrend so there you go. I like Carlos but you must have man crushes on him because you all go hard for him. He's good but he doesn't do anything outstanding to be demeaning the other guys.
Hello Carlos, thanks for the video. I would like to suggest you a more complete video, just as the one you made for the Jag F-Pace. It was nice to see the data recording method and the iterations on the present film, but I was expecting a more complete analisis.
Thank you.
We'd love to, but would need more time with the car. Only had this one briefly
this car is nothing short of amazing
That last run oh my 😍
Ummmm... when did Carlos leave Motor Trend? I've always been a fan, so I'll continue watching his videos here.
when the guy is sexier than the car he's reviewing.carlos lago is ❤️❤️❤️
One sick ass hypercar
This calls for a good old fashion Edmunds.com Acura NSX vs. BMW i8.
That would be awesome.
Nice
Awesome car! I would love to have one.
Carlo a Lago. Good stuff 🦅🦅🇺🇸
Carlos moved to Edmunds? Subscribed
I will now subscribe just for Carlos
You should do a geek out video about this car!
I see people complaining the NSX isn't fast. I watched it chew up a Lamborghini Huracan and a Ferrari 458 in a couple other videos. Plus, it's about $50-100k cheaper. I wouldn't exactly say a 2.97 second 0-60 is slow.
Carlos! Yay!
Carlos bringing in those subs to edmunds haha
Carlos, why are you back at Edmunds!
There needs to be 4 NSX versions,
#1 $80,000, no electric rwd.
#2 $100,000, no electric more power rwd. loaded with carbon fiber bits upgraded interior, etc.
#3 The option to add electric motors and awd to either as a $25.000 option.
#4 as electric batteries become more viable an all electric version at $150-$200.000
While running in EV mode with the engine coming on during high speeds and RPM's, wouldn't this be problematic on a cooled engine?
Can you do a full review of this car.
We want to but we get very limited time with the NSX.
Idk if I'm wrong but wasn't Carlos at Car And Driver after Motortrend? It's been a while lol.
i just bought a white one with gold HRE rims and lowered it a bit, awesome sound and looks but might take it to science of speed for full exhaust pipe
Why are Americans so fascinated with straight line speed? It's not how a car is judged in the real world. Europeans know this. Time to catch up Americans, just not on the straights.
marquise9b sad but true most of us Americans only care about hp and 0-60 times. When there is more factors to consider.
marquise9b because we can regularly experience 3 second 0-60 times on public roads without breaking traffic laws. Pulling 1.01g on public roads on regular basis is asking for trouble.
why did you go the wrong way on the dragstrip?
nice Carlos, I mean NSX
What happened to Motortrend? LOL That's a good story. I'm 39 and I can remember Carlos from MT from at least when I was 20 it seemed like. He must have been 16 when he started there!
dear Edmunds, I can attest that Carlos is a ghost. 2:58 you can see Carlos ghost is wearing a hat when in fact it's just a spectre
Thrilled to see Carlos reviewing cars again. Motortrend has lost its way big league.
FAF, and very pretty in silver! Nice!
How come you did that backwards and not in the direction of the track? In the last few seconds of your video I noticed you made a U-turn were a normal drag race would start
We're simulating a street start, so we want to avoid the effect of traction adding spray that all drag strips have accumulated in the launch area. When prepped, that surface is super sticky. When un-prepped (like in this video), it's pretty slippery.
Carlos works for Edmunds now???
I prefer this instead of any Ferrari or Lamborghini, omg what a stunning car ❤❤
Is this you weekend job when you aren't at Motor Trend?
Godspeed from asia 😍
Wasn’t Carlos on MotorTrend?
Needs a SW-AWD emblem and and V-TEC logo
THUMBS UP IF U MISS THIS GUY ON MOTORTREND......
I'm straight by the way...!!!!
How does this compare to the 2017 Chevy Sonic?
it gets way worse fuel economy
Carlos Lago Thank you for your insight, I will take this into consideration for my next purchase
anything I can do to help
FamousWithoutBrad stfu
SI RICKO lol ikr😂🤣😂🤣😂
Very underrated supercar... I wanna buy to drive.
Hey... I remember this guy... its Carlos
He does not work for MT anymore ?
I love the NSX, but I hate its interior so much
i am watching Motor Trend right?
Veebox or Dragy?
didn't he go back to MT and did the daily fix thing? wtf?
So. How fast Is it?
Carlos lago!!!
Funny at 2:48 when they go to split screen. The host has no hat, but the guy driving in the rear window shot has a hat on. Not the same run, but fun nonetheless.
I was just watching the shitshow that is MotorTrend a few days ago, thinking to myself how much I missed Lago and here he is! Yay!
Who is Carlos? He’s attractive and i love this car even more in person
Didnt Carlos already review this car on Motor Trend? Lol
Kidding different company regardless...✌️
Carlos why didn't you review the ford gt bro . Faaaccckk
I didn't see you use the paddles.
Why is the host's camera and the car camera not in sync? You can clearly see that the second launch-mode video are two different runs, the host's and some dude in a hat. I guess it's just an editing mistake, but it makes the video feel a little off. I know everyone's a critic, but I'd really rather they get rid of the picture in picture and just feature the car and use V/O.
So since it's a hybrid, and when you drive it in "EV", let's say you hop in cold and take off using just the battery, and then full throttle and turn on a cold engine, wouldn't that be potentially bad for wear, or is there some form of oil heating sys. and accusump to address an issue like this @honda
Long warm-up periods are largely a thing of the past. Sure, you wouldn't want to bang the engine against the limiter immediately after a cold start, but you also don't need to worry about everything being at temperature before you drive off
Carlos Lago???? What happened to MT???
Anyone notice on the 3rd run when they show the view from the back of the car, the driver is wearing a hat but the guy talking/"driving" isn't?
Why he looks little bit like Paul Walker?
NSX can do 10.8 seconds on quarter-mile, actually, I can see you slowed down before the finish line.
what happened he doesn't work for Motor Trend anymore
carlos > than CNN memes
quirks and features? o wait, wrong channel
Test this vs 911 turbo or Lexus LFA
This car should have least have 700 HP from the factory. 500 HP is not enough these days.
Does anyone knows the position of Engine number?
Gosh just 300lbs lighter and 30-40 more hp and 3k rpm launch control.. thing would run high 10sec 1/4 mile, actually do 2.8 sec 0-60 and withput limiter it wpuld already do 200mph .. not to mention what 300lb weight loss would do for handling... go from 1.06g to 1.12g

Ok now we have Carlos, now we need the editing team at Motor Trend.
no more motortrend?
I thought he was going to test its top speed
I was disappointed.
Larlos Cago!!
Still prefer the original one...this new nsx was supposed to come out as a N/A V10 but then they decided to ruin it
Michael Massey yea it was a V10
That's what I thought and it would run as a V5 for normal/calm/town driving. It's a shame this car seems confused and Honda seem like they held back to keep it at it's current price point. It they'd just gone for it and made an Lexus LFA type car it would sell or if they did away with some of the trickery it could be cheaper.
Yeah, next up figure 8!
I wish they would put V-TEC back in the car.
Hey Carlos, you know who already did an NSX review? Your good ole boys backs at motortrend!
