nsx

[The Radman]

saw an nsx today,not often you see one of them on the road,i remember when these came out they were something like £50k?? were these the ones with rear wheel steer as well if so anyone ever driven one and whats the rear steering like if it was on these?

[steviecossie]

i dont think the NSX has rear steer.

was it not the mitsubishi gto that has the rear wheel steering?

[Ginge]

Yeah I think it was the GTO's that had rear wheel steering

[COZZFATHER]

skylines had it, i remember doing about 80-90 on the m56 in me astra van and a skyline went past me doing must of been 150 and i saw the fucker steer with the rear wheels. if you have ever done big speeds on a motorway its suprising how a gradual curve feels like a bend at that sort of speed

[john savage]

the nsx never had rear steer, the prelude did though look fairly similar maybe thats where you getting mixed up?

nsx = blooming good car though

[The Radman]

ok,thats that sorted then,so anyone driven a rear steer?

i love the nex and have thought about buying one of those in t he past,will eb a future classic imo.honda's one and only attempt at a supercar and it was great. superb looks,awesome handling rare but imo lacking in power the 3lt was only 270bhp and something like 20-220 lbsft and the 3.2lt was 290bhp and 230ish lbsft.but was still good for 180mph iirc they did 0-6- in a little over 5 secs. they did the nsx-r too,which was basically a lightweight version wit a few extra tarty aero options on top

i would still own one.always have liked them and always will.but i think they need a little more poke.not sure what tuning is like for one.and i know i would miss turbo power

when i picked up my mk1 xr2 a few years back i pulled into a petrol station to see 3 of them in a line havent seen any on the road since ..... still got the photo's i took somewhere as i thought that was odd to see that many in one go

I saw 3 of the things last week in france
Then again, in teh same car park there was also an Apolo Gumpert, Macca F1, F40, 2 R8's, couple of Gallardos, new noble, 360's / 430's, lots of astons.....

[bullett]

pmsl at rich. i wonder why you saw them. maybe it was coencidence?

[Rolls]

yeah - think there was a race on of some sort!!
Only saw 2 escos' the whole week though!

[spiritof'76]

Could never get my head properly round the styling ...... too much overhang at the back...........

Looks quite dated now i think but probably still a great drive, especially when the variable valve timing wakes up......... as good as a Turbo in it's own way

My cousin had one, drove nice, but wasn't quick at all. Also a surprisingly small
car in the flesh. Very capable car though, and rare enough to be a talking point when out in it.

[bullett]

that s my main gripe si.the power is lacking.at 330 to 350bhp that car would be amazing imo

[Paul RS]

There's a couple of really nice low miles ones over here that usually do shows. As loader says they could do with a shed more power to match their looks!
