Fun fact: Ayrton Senna did help develop the first NSX, but 99% of the development was done by Gan-san himself. In fact he was the one who convinced Honda execs to develop the car on Nürburgring, by actually driving flat out around the ring with Acura Legend Coupe with one of the executives. In fact the Nürburgring was so treacherous it nearly destroyed the brand new Legend Coupe after just few laps. Executive was so convinced he gave Gan-san an approval to test the NSX in Nürburgring on the spot.
@@CCP_zhongguo_sai_B He did briefly described his experience, “The entire car (Legend Coupe) warped and twisted like crazy and by the halfway through the lap, one of the side windows got derailed and fell into the door”
Man, imagine what the NSX could've been if the "gentleman's agreement" didn't exist in Japan at the time. Maybe it could've had a de tuned V8 sourced from a Honda F1 car, if only. Not criticizing the car, I still want one.

What year was the run down with the Legend Coupe? I personally think the second gen Legend Coupe is a very handsome looking car 🖤
@@gustavocastillo9954 It was 1st gen Legend Coupe so around 87
@@INUMIMI28 Ah, okay! Thanks for the reply! I'll look into it 😁

Gan-san in HD! This guy truly has the greatest style as a driver! So damn smooth!
I reckon it's between him and Nob Taniguchi
@@mgciniwethu1801add keiichi tsuchiya, tsugio matsuda, and toshiki oyu to that too
Gan-san is incredibly smooth with his inputs. Amazing driving.
Almost as impressive as the footage of Gan-San driving the S2000 prototype at Nurburgring!
Hey where’s the cayman
Gan-San one of the best international drivers ever!!!
720p video of Gan-San doing a time attack? GTchannel, you spoil us. :D
The car looks so settled to the point where it looks slow
