Drove the new 2017 Acura NSX
My short review of a carbon packaged 2017 NSX for now:
High's-
Looks incredible inside and out, the paint especially, powerband is very smooth and linear, tranny is seamless, no harshness at all, so comfy, pulls out of corners good, the suspension is super smooth even in track mode, visibility is very good, incredible brakes, seats are soft and comfortable, its quiet and soft, this is the ultimate smooth, soft, so easy to drive most livable daily driver supercar on this earth, I'm falling asleep....
Low's-
Power feels slow, yes I said it, feels like it has only 400hp not the rated 573hp? No excitement, no aggressiveness, no rawness, no supercar feel, steering is boring, numb, the exhaust, turbo, engine sounds are non existent, so quiet, just so damn boring. This one had the regular Conti tires on,
Overpriced at $200k+ Optioned out, overall Im a bit disappointed and not impressed.
There it is

Sounds similar to when the NSX was testing out here at MMP in Utah. Acura brought along a GT3 and Audi R8 for benchmarks. All three drivers told me they thought the GT3 was by far the best of the three with the R8 coming in second. The said the NSX was just too refined and numb. It also couldn't come close to the other two lap times at least at Millers.

I mean the car is fast, but it builds speed gradually not instantly and will probably do 190+mph easily with a cup of starbucks in your right hand.
Aftermarket support? I dont think so cause who will know how to retune the 3 electric motors and 1 gas motor at the same time?
I would post up some pics but you all probably already seen a millions photos of this car?
