The Honda/Acura NSX is nearing the end of its lifespan. For the first time in Europe, we witness the appearance of the special Type-S model.
This new model looks more aggressive and modern than the regular Honda NSX, or in this case, the Acura NSX. Acura is Honda's luxury brand in America, and in the USA and Canada, the NSX was also delivered as an Acura. In Europe, we know it only as a Honda. Nevertheless, here we see an Acura NSX, so this specimen was likely imported from North America.
In addition to external changes, the NSX has also been sharpened under the skin. The 3.5-liter turbocharged V6 has been boosted to 581 horsepower. This engine is supported by three electric motors, bringing the system output to 607 horsepower. The regular NSX had a system output of 581 horsepower, so the Type-S received a small upgrade.
Only 350 units of this limited version were produced, with 300 for America and 50 for other countries. This is the third specimen on the website and the first on European soil. It's no surprise that this gem came from Monaco. Two specimens were spotted in the United States, in Charlotte, North Carolina, and Columbus, Ohio.
Hopefully, we can see more specimens in Europe.
