2016 Honda NSX

October 30, 2015 5:00am by

The Acura NSX has a 500bhp twin-turbocharged 3.5-litre V6 and although it is missing a proper 3rd pedal, it tries to make up for that flaw via its nine-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox.

A third, 50bhp motor is for low-speed torque (offsetting turbo lag) adding up to a total of 573bhp. It does 0-60mph in 2.9 seconds.

Pretty good for a Honda!

    Looks like the love child of a Lambo and a McLaren!

    A beautiful car!

    But I hate how so many cars are sticking exhaust outlets in the center of the car rear. Looks unbalanced to me.
