Acura NSX

When the NSX was introduced back in 1991, Honda was at the peak of its glory days in Formula 1. So everyone could have expected from the engine supplier of the Formula 1 champion a great car. What came, though, was the NSX, a car that is greater than this...

Honda has used the latest edge of technology in the NSX with an all-aluminium body, and a poweful V6 engine that easily revs through to 8000rpm.

The most important thing about the NSX is that it is surely a supercar but, still, it is as friendly to drive as you surely wouldn't expect from a supercar. To make it simpler, the NSX is as exciting and fast as a Ferrari and as friendly as a Civic.

To sum it up, the Acura NSX is the most sensible supercar ever.
