About the 1990 Acura NSX

Honda's audacious challenge to Ferrari resulted in one of the most significant supercars ever built. The first-generation NSX combined Formula 1-derived technology with Japanese reliability, featuring an all-aluminum monocoque chassis and body, revolutionary for 1990. Its naturally aspirated 3.0-liter VTEC V6 produced 270 horsepower, paired with a precise 5-speed manual that set the benchmark for gearbox feel. Ayrton Senna's input during development shows in every corner, delivering supercar performance with daily-driver usability. The NSX proved exotic cars didn't need to be temperamental, influencing everything from the McLaren F1 to modern supercars. With only 8,997 first-generation examples reaching the US, clean low-mileage cars have become blue-chip collectibles. Early cars with the coveted manual transmission and original condition command premium prices, especially as younger enthusiasts discover what many consider the last pure analog supercar.
