Road Test
Honda NSX (90-) 3.0 Coupe 2dr
Test Date 19 December 1990
Price When New £52,000
Verdict
The NSX’s engine alone gives it an individuality other marques would kill for. Installing it in a chassis whose responses help you to drive better than ever while remaining secure on wet and dry roads makes it an inspirational driving tool.
What it lacks is that single-minded – some would say narrow-minded – execution of the supercar art, so consistently practiced by Ferrari. And it is true you do not feel so utterly at one with the NSX as you do with a 348.
But then the Ferrari’s more uncompromised nature, which makes it so exceptional at its performance limits, stands in contrast to the Honda’s any-journey, any-day usability.
