When it comes to the looks, the NSX has (IMO) a timeless design. It was breathtakingly beautiful 20 years ago and it still is today, it's almost as if it is becoming more good looking with age because you get to appreciate it more in today's world filled with cars struggling for an identity because of all the rules and regulations. Really hope I could buy one some day. ^-^

12 years later, I STILL regret selling my NSX. Looking at these cars, I realize how timeless this car is. Still looks fantastic. These 2 cars would catch more looks than a brand new GT3.

these cars were so ahead of its time

One of my all time favourites. You are correct, timeless design.

I would take an older NSX- Type R over the 2016 any day of the week.

The sounds these things make on the overrun are insane!

It's so nice to finally see guys who can appreciate, and deserve these cars. Own these types of cars. So many cocky d-bags in the super/high end sports car market now a days. Cool to see humble nice guys are still around.

Why the hell do people keep saying the NSX's engine is a Honda Accord engine? It's not. The NSX's 3.0 liter was built from the ground up for the NSX. Which means it has a cast iron block, titanium connecting rods, and throttle by wire (yes, even in 1991). What's more, Honda Accord V6s were never DOHC, they were always SOHC, and never revved up to 8,200 rpm. Great video nevertheless Matt.

"opens garage door, looks at red 1991 NSX.. pats self on back'.

Both of these cars can be released tomorrow and still look modern! The design is timeless.

I have never been close to an NSX in my life, but I heard people that used to own an NSX, can't find joy in any other car after that.

Once of the best car videos I have seen. These 2 guys are modest and well spoken. Keep it up!

What an EXCELLENT video. It's nearly right up there with THE big budget productions like Top Gear etc. Excellent, excellent videography. Excellent narration, seamless nicely paced pro editing, great cars, location. Ye lads are really, really impressive. Instant subscribe, and THANK YOU!

Matt, if you're on here.. I know you split your time between TST and making films for /Drive. These /Tuned episodes get about the same amount of views as when you used to make pretty films on TST, or even your one-takes. Correct me if i'm wrong, but doesn't J.F. and /Drive pay you a flat rate for producing a /Drive film? Wouldn't it be better to produce these films for TST and have ad revenue constantly? Not to mention traffic to your website and other paid films like ALGTH. Love your work!

NSX is still a great car if we compare nowadays some sports cars...

I love waking up Saturday morning to the sounds of that track...awesome cars too!

Can you feel the bro-mance? I can feel the bro-mance.

Great evaluation by Matt and thanks to both owners for showing their cars to the world. Well maintained, unique icons like the NSX need to be seen and experienced. Awesome video.

The owners are so chill. You can tell they know what they want in life and they're living life on their terms. Always nice seeing humble well grounded people. Thanks for letting him review your cars guys, that was very kind of you. Absolutely beauties of cars guys, I can't decide which one I like better. But like he said, the white one seems better for daily driving since it's got the better dampers and it's a little softer and with power steering, and the black one isn't bad either, but it performs much better on a track and power steering issue can be a little annoying in parking lots, but you just gotta man up and appreciate the fact you get to build some muscle in the car without having to go to the gym, lol. Cheers guys, beautiful cars.

How could anyone dislike this video?! Having those two side by side is just a treat.

Outstanding video, and really fun to see where the values have gone since this video was created. Straight up, in case you're living under a rock.

Honda, I think, made a terrible mistake not simply updating the older car. Porsche has been updating the 911 for decades. Some cars don't need a re-work. What they are calling the NSX now isn't an NSX. That's too bad, really.

This is some of the best car content on KZfaq.

how about cleaning lenses and sensor before shooting?

These cars have such an iconic look that is noticeable to any gear head. Love this video.

Apparently i'm the only one bugged out that the 1st gen owner got rid of the pop-up headlights... mechanically well sorted, but why put the newer gen headlights at all, when the car always looked better with pop-ups?!

Wish the motor was the same as the accord. I'd have that in my TL. The motors are very different. The C series motors are 90 degree V6's where as the J's are 60 degree V6's. The NSX is a DOHC motor too so the J series can't rev as high without valve float.

Excellent!! We get to see both sides of the NSX. More videos on NSX!

I think the automotive world reached a pinnacle at the end of the 90s. After there it was all downhill. Being honest, I think cars mirror society. Cars up to and especially *of* the 90s were "much prettier". Yes they were simpler too, but not "simple". They were still hugely engineered in an era which nearly had all it wanted *or needed* from technology. Though I grew up in the 70s and 80s and loved the passion, flare and rawness of everything, when the 90s brought increased refinement and precision in EVERYTHING, without losing the raw form (inc cars, songs, films, culture, politics), and what was right, and true, I tipped my hat to it and said "We are here at last. We have more than enough. Now we have to develop ourselves more."

these cars are beautiful, and the owners seem like very knowledgeable guys awesome video!

That black NSX really tickles my feel good spot.

God i love the NSX. She's such a pretty car. A Pawn shop near my house has one. I need to go there and talk to the owner

what a beautiful car. It really is timeless both inside and out. It's not overly flashy, but still stunning.

NSX is a fantastic car. Another masterpiece from the age of Japanese performance cars that were significantly over-engineered. We will never see the likes of vehicles like these ever again. RIP the 90's.

Two amazing examples of one of the best sports cars ever made. Nicely done video Farah. A little different than some of the videos you have posted recently. Really enjoyed watching. I have not driven an NSX in years, but I always thought they were roomier. Farah looks like he is driving a smart car.

The engine note is fantastic on this two fellas.

I love these things! They're both ridiculously good looking, but that '91 is on another level...just beautiful

I personally like the 97-01 model being that it has the upgraded engine, 6 gears manual transmission, upgraded perforated seats but still having the flip headlights.

Had a good friend from work that owned 1. Also fun to drive. Great tuner cars.

Love those exhaust notes comparison

I want one so badly. The NSX is just one of the most beautiful cars ever made and those two examples are really astonishing. I would take the white one and in my opinion it will look even better with the gold wheels from the black.

i love these things and the sound of both these cars is spectacular :)

Similar scenario with my buddy and I. He's got a highly modified 00 NA Integra type R (yellow) and i have a 00 Silver SiR TurboR swapped. They would call us "Sun and Moon" at the track because we could also exchange cars any time to get a taste of both worlds. Real fun.

who ever disliked these analogue engineering masterpieces and generally accepted works of art can go drive their xbox, build their WOW character, shift their ipad, and take a snapchat in their prius..... maybe soon one of those can wipe their butt for them too....SMH at today's cars and buyers

Amazing video and cars. Drive should really do a video on modified sc400/sc300.

I think there's something to be said of cars that have the total package. Handling, power, grip, power, steering feel, refinement, looks etc. A very rare quality in vehicles even today. It's a fine and delicate balance and one that the NSX seems to pull off.

Great job guys...👍🏼🙏🏽. Thinking about getting a red 91 with about 90000 miles and probably will have lots questions for the both of you later 😅

omg i have the exact same black nsx....... in gran turismo 6 :'(

those are cars you keep. And there is something to be said about remaining mostly stock, and trying your best to maintain the original dynamics, especially for a turnkey tuned car or even a showroom performance car like the NSX. Power actually isnt always such a good thing. Indeed there will be a point when you want more BUT power typically pushes a car beyond its balanced tuned point. and as they noted.. parts begin to fail, costs increase and headaches mount, at the end of the day many people will admit despite the lack of speed all the additional mods often removes the 'sweetness' of a performance car. its about livability, and that all depends on the person as well as how much its used.

Great feature, great cars ... good friends .. sounds great too!

As soon as he said $35 grand for a clean one I IMMEDIATELY scrolled down to see what year this video was posted. Yeah.....guess we all missed THAT boat.

One thing is for sure: They didn't have to change the pop up headlights, those were so much better!!!

Matt's hair perfectly matched these cars: immaculate and the hard driving didn't bother it at all. I actually miss the pop up headlights. It is old and outdated and the after market replacements look great, Matt has similar on his Vette, but the flips just say something. They were on the F40 and they will never be put on a production car again so keep it. Or don't, it is your car so enjoy it.

Went ahead and liked the video while I was watching the advertisement haha

really hoping we can see more of this "Choices" series on /tuned or tst

yes! give me more ACURA NSX videos ! thanks matt

I always liked a NSX but could not bear myself to own one so I got to own an S15 but when my S15 broke, I drove my friend's NSX and my god it was fun. He had it tricked out to 380BHP and it flies. It was a '95 model with a 2004 facelift front (He sold the car after he accidentally smashed the rear towards the wall on Sepang during a Time Attack Run) It has increased displacement to 3.2L, Toda Racing cam, Motec CPU, Spoon pistons, HKS GT/SC Universal Supercharger, Eibach shocks with Tein Street Pro coilovers and 4 pot Endless brakes all around with the 6 speed manual. I don't know why but apparently his was an auto when he bought it but he swapped it to a manual. Due to his words, he said that it's because weirdly, Honda built the NSX that comes with Auto gearbox with more torque than the manual so he bought the auto and swapped it with a manual. That car was amazing. I drove it for 1 month and kept racking speeding tickets like never before going beyond 150KM/h just in a blink of an eye and I always wanted to swap cars with him. If I could buy another car, it would be the NSX.

Thank you, Honda and Ayrton Senna da Silva,for making the NSX....one of my dream cars!!

Nice cars! I've got a '96 NSX-T. I did a Comtech supercharger, air flow system and exhaust. It goes fast enough and looks and sounds great! I was stopped one time by a Sheriff for speeding. He came up to the window and said, ""Nice car! Look, keep the speed down and I'll let you off." I promised I would, and I have kept my promise. :-)

I love this car so much! It's a real shame that they have doubled in value :(

Its such a pity I cant get one of these in South Africa.... These are so freaking awesome.

My mr2 gen2 na has close to 170k miles and it runs like new. These Japanese cars of this time period were just pure amazing. They need to bring something like these back out.

These cars are absolutely timeless

"Basically an Accord engine"?!?!?!?! Damn you killed me with that one Matt.....

friendship and car goals

awesome cars! I really like the black one, but I would be happy to have either one. now Matt, what's up with your 20+ year old mustang dude? I'm feenin for an update.

This'll be mine when I graduate.

100 K miles on sports cars. I always love to hear the stories of how people maintain a car because they love the design/timeless look, engine and such. I don't get to hear/see to many stories like that.

Love seeing the city for the beauty it is and not what it's known for.

Amazing video

ive had the honor to drive one of these bad boys and it was a 1991 model just like the black one but it was 100% stock other than suspension and exhaust and let me tell you if i had the money i would buy it but the prices are ridiculous. If you have the cash and the patience to look for one in good condition buy it because these will only get harder to find and more expensive. The NSX is truly a timeless piece of art by honda and you will not regret your purchase.

I'd forge the internals, upgrade fuel delivery, and mildly boost with a good tune. Love these cars, wish I had the money to purchase one. Particularly one of the 90's flavor, but for now my 95' EJ1 will have to do.

The Direzza's on the white car is still pretty great for road tires.

Black is drop-dead gorgeous with those rims... The white is nice too.

The black one, with the golden wheels.. DAMN! First NSX i've found to be truly goodlooking. Besides that: Very cool cars, both of them. Honda did VERY well making these.

This car reminds me of Grand Turismo back in the days !

Looks of the Black car with the NA and road manners of the White one please 😎 Great cars and credits to their owners

What people constantly forget about this car is the trailing front suspension. It is the single most unique and functional aspect of the design.

Two good friends right there

Beautiful cars !

More videos like this please... very appreciated...

In the words of Wayne Campbell , "It will be mine. Oh yes. It will be mine."

The black one is done perfectly!

That is the best looking car ever made in my opinion. The black one is just crazy good looking

Always liked this car.

Definitely a car made before its time. Thanks

These guys should have their own show about NSX

best japanese car ever.

Timeless design on that beast

What a BRILLIANT car!

These two NSX vehicles showcase the beauty, reliability and rare practicality of an affordable street / track hybrid. I have two Civics, two Accords, a TL

It's like my fav Hotwheels Vulture™, lowslung, feather light, midengine, superb visibility!!

beautiful cars!

Magnificent!

just built one of these & Tune it In NEED 4 SPEED SHIFT 2... THEY R A BEAST ... I Turbo charged the one in my RACING SIM THOU.. SMOKING ALL THE bigger engine 's SUPER CAR's WITH it. Know my AI in the PS3 is WORKING HARD LMFAO... & The Game Play SETTING IS ON HARD NOT EASY ... cool video.. wish they had a Racing Sim with the REAL CAR I own in real life thou. which is a 1990 SC TBiRD. the one car i found that is Close to the SC TBIRD. Is the NISSAN 200sx/ s14 front end with a 240 SX rear end. they have pretty much the same body style. as THE SUPERCOUPE's .. & handle pretty much the same way. & the tach is pretty much the same amount of RPM that the 3.8 Sc can handle. With is pretty close to 7,000 RPM. if you build the Ford 3.8 Right. that is in THE SC TBIRD.

I typed ctrl+F and found that nobody mentioned McLaren F1. FYI, this car inspired Gordon Murray to design the fastest (super)car of the decade, McLaren F1. Not just externals, but the internals as well. I'm talking about suspension system and lightweight materials. McLaren even asked Honda to make a large-displacement V-engine for the supercar (they were partners in Formula One, when Senna driving it), but Honda refused for principal reason. Anyway, Gordon Murray said that this car, NSX, could handle - or should've had - bigger engine. So I'll say get one, and put any unused racing engine in it!

The prettiest Japan car, ever build!

Beginning of video: OH GOD MY SPEAKERS. @ 0:28: Oh thank god...

love this video

Matt, you need to find a last generation Trans Am with an LS1 to do on TUNED or TST. That would be awesome. I have one but its 95% Stock.
