The legendary Honda NSX (standing for New Sportscar Experimental) was developed by the Honda Motor Corporation between 1984 and its eventual launch in 1990, with major chassis and suspension input from three times F1 World Champion, Ayrton Senna, who provided direct input into the car’s cornering and handling characteristics. The NSX was the world’s first mass-produced car to feature an all-aluminium body and was a huge landmark in Honda’s history. As their first taste of the supercar market, their aim was to beat Ferrari and Lamborghini at their own game.
BACKGROUND AND HISTORY:
The legendary Honda NSX (standing for New Sportscar Experimental) was developed by the Honda Motor Corporation between 1984 and its eventual launch in 1990, with major chassis and suspension input from three times F1 World Champion, Ayrton Senna.
The NSX featured a state of the art 3.0-litre V6 'VTEC' engine (variable valve timing) and an all-aluminium monocoque body, encompassing a revolutionary extruded aluminium alloy frame and suspension. This made the car very light and extremely strong. The car was the first real Japanese 'Supercar', proving itself and quickly establishing respect from its key competitors.
The Honda NSX was a huge landmark in Honda’s history. As their first taste of the supercar market, their aim was to beat Ferrari and Lamborghini at their own game. The beauty of this decision was the combination of Japanese technology and reliability with the supercar genre. It was therefore a rare option to own a useable supercar.
