In today's episode we are getting behind the wheel of our friend RB's beautiful Honda NSX. That's right, this is a genuine JDM classic. This mid-engine, rear wheel drive icon is a car that will certainly turn heads wherever it goes, but is it worth the hype? Would you import this right hand drive supercar? Drop a comment below!

been wanting an nsx ever since i seen the veilside one
Grew up in Japan and watched my neighbor buy one in 97 new and Ive been in love ever since. Living in the USA now its cringey how people think ... off about them. The biggest thing is calling it a "supercar". NSX was New Sportscar Xperiment not Supercar. Still learning about it. I know 91 was hand made so yes Id say those are worth those higher prices. Aiming at getting a 97 though as those were manufactured to my understanding but they started doing the 6 speed with the C32B that came in the NA2 but is still an NA1 with popups. Gorgeous car, built to do a job and it won and still runs great!!!
Pantera gtx
I wana buy a na2 bc i wana get the jgtc body kit
Stunningly beautiful but only with popups
The NSX is something special. The manual steering, 8000 RPM, and the gearbox. Love mines
Mines isn’t a real word
@@topfloorb0ss No one cares. We understand what he means. lol
Take care of her for me 😂
@@symbiotic_s2k572 still not a word
@@topfloorb0ss yes it is. They go boom 💥
I personally think the NSX is one of the most beautiful cars ever made, in stock form. It really is timeless. Modding them is cool, but a clean, unmolested one really is a work of art.
Unfortunately most of them are modded out such as the one in this video with the massive wang. It is quite difficult to find an original NSX and those are the most valuable.
I lived in Japan during the heyday of these, "Gran Turismo," cars. I saw them in the wild all the time, and just thought it was normal. Now, looking back, I realize that I never appreciated what a special time it was, and what a privilege it was to live in such a place when it was all happening around me.
To keep those days alive, I still keep a 1991 EF Civic and a Soarer in my garage, both mint. Never gonna sell either.
Those old EF civics are classic.
@@anthonyygn5544 And getting curiously sought-after, too, nowadays. Twice this week, people have begged me to sell it, and nearly every time I go out in it, somebody will smile, wave, give a thumbs up, or even yell out in traffic that they love my car. It's more attention grabbing than a lambo. lol
@@Maplecook love to hear it man. I’m sure you’re very proud of it. One of my all time favourite hatchbacks would be an EK9 type R or even an EG/EJ but those EF’s are timeless.
@@anthonyygn5544 Fist bump!
One of the reasons why I'm studying hard! Getting this car in the near future 💪
A worthy goal 👍🏼
you got it bro
I busted my ass off in school to get my engineering degree to buy one. After studying engineering, it makes you appreciate the car more. I think that’s why a lot of the owners are engineering graduates.
Same
@@andr3w27 congrats my man
I'd much rather take a 90's designed interior with physical buttons and actual volume wheels and climate controls over all of the stuck on tablets, fake engine noises, and piano black interiors you see today honestly.
Oh the piano black interiors, I still don't understand the point of those...
Me too!
So damn true, and that reminds me Gordon Murray´s interview about the T50 and that´s his take on the interior also, least amount of distractions but analog dials and buttons over touchy touchy crap.
Pomegranate Rhapsody That’s a phenomenal interview. So good I’ve watched it twice.
@dicax And that's why I'll stick with the classics like how our parents stuck with 60s and 70s muscle cars.
The Honda NSX May be the greatest JDM car ever made, and I’ll stand by that
Agreed.
True, the design is seriously attractive and idk why
True. Design wise, technological wise and reliability wise. The nsx inspired many supercars such as the mclaren f1 and gave Ferrari a huge wake up call to stop slouching. The nsx wasn't meant to compete with the supra and skyline, it was clearly above them.
The NSX has a timeless design. Looks great from any angle. And the sound of the engine right behind your head makes any ride a lot of fun! Having a targa roof on a nice day does not hurt either.
Didn't know that Arby's made NSX's, but interesting
Deaddd 💀😂😂😂
Its a pirate's favorite car
The car does have the meats
Secret menu item for sure
Just dip it in Szechuan sauce
Dad”V8s are the most reliable engine out there” Me”laughs in Honda”
Ultra-x-Noob: *laughs in Honda*
Me: *laughs in toyota/lexus*
I mean you can fix a v8 or toyota with tape a honda not
Are american v8's decently reliable? Genuinely curious i have no clue
3ND 4TOM1C v8 non turbo engine yes other parts no
@@hsl2208 You guys will both be laughing for a long time if you have a Honda I4 NA or a Toyota I4/V6
My all time dream car😭
I love the 90's era of Japanese cars. They had a lot of soul and were very fun to drive. The NSX was exciting and I was all over them until recently. Now I am interested in V8 cars more than anything else.
Thank you for sharing your experience with this iconic car.
If I had $50k to spend on one car right now it’d be an NSX or lotus exise. My top 2 attainable dream cars (:
FI Noti Gang Gang 🖤 Literally my dream car! That’s a gorgeous version but the 5enna NSX build is the best one on the planet
This inspired me to own an nsx
Me: yo, the NSX is the best car ever
Alex: issa honda
So
NSX will always be that dream super car I want to daily.
You're a lucky person getting to drive such a great piece of automotive history
I liked this just for the ending 😌 makes it feel so much more majestic. I’m buying one of these
I actually had a chance to check out the new nsx this week In Denver. Completely different, but amazing In their own ways
yeah i drove both.. the original is great.. but the new one is a different world.. love them both.. wish i can afford one.. waiting for the tlx type s though
This Car ist something I can't describe. I'm a native German an still have this Leidenschaft in my heart for these kind of cars. The Story, the lights, the design is perfect for me. It does what it have to do, no special features, no surprise. But what you expect from this car... It reaches new dimensions. I love it. There is no need to have fast closing slices. It just need to do what its doing with much modification potential. Just a perfect car for me. I hope I will have the money to buy it someday. Many German Cars have lose their soul. I want to have a unique car with a soul!
Please drive a Honda S2000! I own 1 and would love to see your reaction/review.
I love S2000s
you saw my picture right
I own a GTR and a 91’ NSX. Have grounded the NSX for a little time to enjoy the GTR fast and awesome experience, but have recently returned to the NSX for the overall true analog drive experience - especially around the mountain back roads!! Love the the GTR beast, but the NSX backroad drive cannot be beat!
everyone: the original acura NSX is the most underrated 90s JDM sports car
3000GT VR-4: anyone? please?
Atleast the Dodge Stealth won the heart of Nascar fans and became the Official Nascar pace car in the 90 with its ccrazy 3.0TT AWD. Little did they know though that it was a Mitsubishi GTO VR4 in sheeps clothing ;).
People say that about a lot of cars, 300zx too, even though they're hella hyped up today. I own a 93 VR4 and some of my fellow teens don't even know what it is. Most don't realize the serious potential they have. Some with zero taste just love to put ugly black wheels on them, or worse, racing stripes. With the direction that our cars went in price, it's no surprise. And then you got people creating biased, misguided, or untruthful reviews. While people shit on them online, and call them stupid names, I'll just keep on loving my 3000GT, for life! Sorry for the rant haha
Nissan Pulsar?
Nissan Pao is ultimate 90s dorifto car
J
The nsx is my dream car. It’s the most beautiful car I’ve ever seen and the history and meaning behind it’s existence just enhances my love for the car.
Is that a Louie Vuitton embossed center console? I mean... I guess that’s pretty cool. Really caught me off guard.
I had to look back to check it, and HOLY CRAP IT IS
Where do you even get that done? I’m pretty impressed for real
I did it myself. Bought some leather and wrapped the original armrest
Nice, looks really good. I wouldn’t have been shocked if you told me you took it to louis vuitton directly and had them do it.
I like the nsx at stock.
it just looks good.
I love a stock nsx
But damn modified nsx look sick
That’s my dream car. My first car is an 05 accord v6 6mt so kinda get that feeling
"1st" car in college was the KA7 Legend with the C32A1 I think it was. Loved the Legend but always been in love with the NSX and just Honda in general. Never had vtec but just knowing the F1 technology and engineering that goes into their cars is amazing. Every Honda Ive driven has always been a pleasure so cant wait to get an NA1 hopefully.
I have a 2012 Honda Accord v6 6spd and I love it
Collectors disgust me. They ruin car culture. sorry, we already have museums. They don't need 50 of the same car.
Y u hating them? They r just a different sub category of car enthusiasts. Also, if they can afford to buy and collect, it's their money, it's fine, don't u think?
Gopherchucks Games They don’t buy the cars for you, let people enjoy things they way they want to
Collectors are annoying. I agree too. But sometimes i like em eg: Jay Leno!
@@RaptureOnCloudNo.9 Yes and no. Certainly no hate. When youre talking about collecting multiples of same car... thats ALSO part of the reason certain cars are pulling upwards of 3-4x msrp's or bluebook values. for example - a 2000-unit example is fairly low numbered as is, rarer cars fetch more, common knowledge... If hypothetically 20-30% get crashed/scrapped etc, another 20-30% being sat on in museums or collections... Now were talking about roughly 800 remaining on-road units..That can dramatically change the landscape of the used car market. Then there are folks doing this with the sole intention of manipulating the market, i think vinwiki touched on this a while back.. anyways, nothing to really do about it lol and i dont think ill of collectors either, its just an unfortunate (for some of us) reality.
@@RaptureOnCloudNo.9 I DO think there should be a "if you dont use it you lose it" policy with car collecting tho. LOL
There are some interchangeable parts with other Hondas but 100% my biggest frustration is the over pricing of even simple parts and limited options for mods in general. All that said. I LOVE my NSX though.
IMO, operating the H-pattern in RHD is less prone to money shifting because you pull the stick towards your body as you shift up.
That walk-off rant at the end 😂😂
This is the most beautiful car I've ever seen especially with a rocket bunny kit. Hands down my favorite car of all time
Eww. Only a moron would ruin a car like that with some garbage RB kit.
@@MelvinKhosa You don't belong in the car community if you bag on the next man who makes his car the way he enjoys it
The 3000GT is the most underrated JDM car of all time. It’s criminally underrated.
Same as the z31
Because it has a grossly low hp to weight ratio
g g g g not at all. The VR4 is only 3600ish pounds but has over 100 more horses then the average JDM. Plus it’s technology was way more advanced then most other JDM’s. AWD, Twin Turbos, 4 wheel steering...
It had nearly identical specs with the Supra that everybody loves
And we are gonna keep it that way
Love people that actually drive their cars. Neighbor just finished 9000km on his Bayside blue R34 Vspec 2
Beautiful car and I am sure Arby really enjoys his car and really drives it unlike others that just keep it in a garage and not drive it.
You guys should have taken the car on some twisties, there is where the car shines and you wouldn't be able to stop smiling I guarantee it.
I've seen the owner driving this nsx a handful of times in my area and everytime I do it's a neck snapper.
Thanks for a fun day guys!
Thanks for coming up Rb! Always a pleasure 💙
I thought it was funny that he kept talking about the car walking away as the video was ending lol
Can't rant on and on and on and on and on about the NSX lmao . (Walked off da set still going ) loved the ending bro . This episode shows the true glory of the car . Rock on bro
Saw this at tuner evo. Such a beautiful car
Well said..."You get to own a story"
Aight, that ending was funny 😂
Thats interesting because the NSX is one of the few cars that is way more expensive in Japan than in the states with its US counterpart. There's even a few people here who have bought US spec cars and imported them to Japan because it was cheaper than buying one already in the country.
It has the best look for a two door sports car that’s sleek, sexy and fast looking. The side scoops on the rocker molding and quarter panel. This car, being the Ferrari killer, will be one that looks great 50 years later.
This is random but I've always liked Alex's watches in your guys' videos.
That outro was great
Glad to see you back Alex; for a minute there you were very scarce and then disappeared we thought that your employees had killed you it’s good To see you’re still alive LOL. Tell Alex number two I said hi LOL
Alex; you may not like harness on a street car...
But you'll be glad you have em when you find some twisties! (Take the Tail Of The Dragon for example)
A video about the business of you guys would be cool. Most people only know fitment industries but guessing u guys own or they custom offsets owns you? Or two different companies? But same website style. Would love to hear about all your roles and everything
Us and Custom Offsets are both part of the same umbrella! We work together quite a bit! Good suggestion! Maybe in the future!
Fitment Industries you would have tons of people interested in how you guys grew, why u started it ect.
I need me a NSX 2020 tho 🙌🏾🙌🏾🔥🔥💯💯
amazing shots of the NSX, LOVED IT🔥🔥
If I ever had the kind of money for italian sports care collecting I don't think I could just own cars that sit and get driven 100 miles a year. I would be driving my cars and owning ones that can be driven on average streets.
6:13 what? That is the stupidest thing i've heard. The stock NSX is probably the best example of having a timeless look.
Yeah, that's where he lost me.
All the 90s jdm cars are timeless.
"That windows not bad"
Me in my old prelude: That's fast as, what you talking about! Haha...
Would love an NSX one day though.
I removed all old grease and put new in and my windows go twice as fast
Remember seeing a white Nsx as a kid...memory still gives me that stomach feeling😂
Funny, on my drive to work in traffic there was a white NSX-R in front of me lol. Was in my Z but that thing was beautiful.
PR1NCETD0T i got a hr Z too but, savin for boost.
Leo Ginto i have a VHR, but just a base lol. I want to boost mine too but its pricey.
PR1NCETD0T save 8k for a boosted performance mid mount turbo kit easy 500 hp on stock internals but, dont get brave without pistons😅
Leo Ginto yea, if i were to boost id stay around 450-500whp before upping the boost 😂, probably a good 8-9psi.
Royce has the best NSX build, don’t @ me
Its soo sad to see that these guys are just appreciating in value like crazy. One day when i get a job and save enough money to buy one, they will be in 300,000 usd mark 🤣. I fucking love this car. Its JDM and exotic at the same time. She’s one of a kind. And dont get me started on the new one 😬
Last I checked (and its been a few years) the NA1s are still decent. The NA2s are stupid but makes them more collectors models. As a car though not many were ever made period and they are getting lost to acts of god, traffic collisions, and theft so right now the prices are still going up especially being an all aluminum body if I recall correctly. I hope I can get one one day. Definitely a goal for me.
The thing is we all have this old Jdm dream car but at what point do you finally say hey these are old out dated cars and there’s much better choices, you buy these cars for its history and that’s really about it, my dream car is the Rx7 but we all know it’s issues and why would I go that route knowing the location of it’s oil filter lol all I’m saying is you can have a better car for the money you’d spend on an old Honda haha
@@brianreynaga4524 then you obviously don't appreciate older cars. Not many people buy them because they're the fastest or quickest on the track. But more so the way it feels, drives, and even some nostalgia from childhood. The more mechanical feeling the have compared to the heavy computers that are driven around anyday. I'd rather put up with a bad oil filter location (as if thats a problem lol) then driving some boring ass car.
The Fuzzy Pickle my guy as said above I love Rx7’s and was really getting close to buying one but instead I’m sticking with my turbo brz(farthest thing from boring) which is probably one of the most analog cars like the Miata, all I’m saying is I’m not rich and most of us aren’t I turned my daily into a project and now looking for a cool $5k “daily” , if I had future old nsx money I wouldn’t go for and old Honda lol
This is now the earliest i have been to a video
Have you ever been in a wreak Alex? You may think diff about the harnesses. Unless it wasn't a bad one that may throw you from the car. People come out of stock belts in violent crashes. They rarely come out of harnesses. If you hit 140 in your Porsche the stock belts just became useless. Those belts are rated for normal highway speeds.
So glad to hit that notif bell. ❤️❤️
i love the outro😂😂😂😂
Keys to success for TH-cam videos. Offer semi-nostalgic content, walk around slowly, and wave your hands.
Such a sports cars (supercar) and so many just sitting in garages collecting dust.
spot on, Alex
I would get an NSX because its a NSX🤘🏼
A lot of people get racing harness’s is because they are removing the air bag on thief steering wheel and want more protection. And plus let’s be honest racing seats are dope and so are cages 😋
Can't wait for Kevin Jude's to look like that or even better🙏🏽
Dream Car 😣❤️
NSX is a cool car just no 50k+ worth of cool. if they were in the FD price range ~20k+ it would be a lot more attractive. same thing goes for the MKIV Supra.
NSX was my #1 until the C8 was introduced. At $60K, it kills everything near it, including the NSX.
but its still just a corvette that hundreds of thousands where made
Anyone else think that Sesame Street’s, Oscar the Grouch, is actually Alex 30 years from now? I mean at the end of all of these awesome videos he always goes behind the dumpsters 🤷♂️
This is the only video I've EVER had to turn my bass down only to hear Alex lol.
Given the cost to buy one, then the fixes and mods afterwards. I would rather buy a used, low mileage 2017-2018 NSX. They would come to about the same price. Don’t get me wrong this NSX Is beautiful. I guess it is the labor of love in the build.
One of my dream cars right here
Very nice review and explanation! Keep up the good work!
all i can think of the nsx is the tail lights from grand Turismo
The reverse switch is scary. I'd constantly be worried about shifting to reverse instead of 6th...
How? You have to physically press the button.
It has an electronic cutout as well. Once you go over 40 you can shift into 6th without hitting the switch
@@thefuzzypickle8277 Unless I'm understanding it wrong, the button position determines whether the transmission goes into reverse or 6th gear. Foretting to press the button again after going into reverse would leave that shifter position as reverse. So when you're in 5th, shifting to 6th might attempt to place it in reverse.
Someone mentioned there's some kind of 40mph failsafe though, so that would help.
that drone tho lol sweet ride totally worth the money they only goin up
Okay I have to ask this real quick. Are we all still pretending to hate underglow or can we admit again that we all think its awesome?
As a kid I always want to have a car with underglow and now I find myself really tempted to waste money on throwing some lights under my Dodge Stealth.
@@FUNKOfilms not real stealthy ;)
@@TheAdatto I see what you did there
2:17 "Takata"
Captions: "took care of that"
Me: "the algorithm knows my skin tone D:"
I love the nsx it's my dream car
Doug would hate it. World would love it.
Alex : What do i think of the honda nsx ?
Me : To broke to own one
TBH i would pick this over an r34 and toyota sh*tra
You're not alone on that
Brilliant take from Alex on the price and worth of some these older jdm cars, great car but for the price it really isn’t worth it if you really think about it
Yo I saw a red clean nsx driving today and I see this the license plate on this nsx is from Wisconsin which is where I live. Might be the same one I can’t remember the plate. I was too busy admiring. But damn this thing sexy in person.
That particular car is my childhood hero, just saying
One of my top 10 all time favorite cars...
I feel the only people that feel the RHD isn’t desirable are the ones that get it and want people to think it’s a Ferrari
MyzteryMedia lol 🤣🤣. In my country we have RHD. So i love RHD 👀.
*in Alex voice*
Haven’t been in the comments before so...
Helloooo 👋🏾
👋🏼 Helllllooooo
Why does he say ayrton Senna like that!?😂 4:46
My number 1 "totally unobtainable because of my poor career choice, dream car."
NA1 NSX 👌
Lol, the nsx has been under appreciated for 20 years until the new nax concept car was announced, then the band Wagner got bigger
This is such a clean build 🥴🔥💯
Reliable as an Accord, too bad they weren't fast in stock form. Even the new ones are a disappointment, Honda could have built something mind shattering but no..... Still love those!
Great episode, try next to get behind the wheel of a Genesis Coupe or Mercedes W201
I would do anything for that NSX...
Yess great vid
My. Dream. Car.
