Why does everyone think the original NSX was some analog hero?

Why does everyone think the original NSX was some analog hero?

I’ll tell you why. Because Honda was lazy AF and neglected the NSX for over a decade during which it saw no appreciable upgrades to its powertrain. Yeah, it got more displacement, but horsepower went largely unchanged. So everybody forgot that it was once a techno-showcase with variable valve timing, a V6 that made V8 power, and a lightweight aluminum chassis.

Instead everyone remembers it as as that oddball early-90's time capsule being sold through the mid-2000's. And guess what? Nobody bought it because it was hopelessly outdated and woefully underperforming. But like all fallen celebrities, everyone suddenly learned to love it after it died.

Newsflash, the new NSX is another crazy techno-showcase like it’s father that offers 918 Spyder technology for 911 Turbo money.

The old NSX sold especially like shit in Europe and the new NSX will likely break its sales record.

easily the most overrated of the big Japanese sports cars

I think most of its fans are annoying BRs who like it because Senna

the new one is one of the most underrated

new NSX is objectively a good car but why would anyone get one when you could have a 570S instead

I guess it depends on if you want to deal with Mclaren high maintenance cost and depreciation as they take a nose-dive farther than any super car.

Subjectively, I think the NSX looks much better.

Objectively, finding an acura/honda mechanic is much easier than a mclaren mechanic. The AWD would make it better for some places too.

This! The NSX is my favourite car, so I've done a lot of research on it (since I can't actually buy one, being poor and all), and it always absolutely grinds my gears when people forget that it was an absolute technological marvel.

Yes, it's aged spectacularly, but that doesn't have anything to do with simplicity, as some retards seem to think was Honda's goal. It was to showcase that the Japanese could make a super car, and they did.
