What Do You Want To Know About The 2017 Acura NSX?
What Do You Want To Know About The 2017 Acura NSX?-March 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:09:54

Happy almost-Independence Day. We’re celebrating with a real American supercar, the Ohio-built (and largely American-engineered) . Ask me stuff about it.

We tested this car a year ago, but this is the first time your Jalopnik staff gets to spend several days living with Honda’s new supercar. It’s spending the weekend at my place.

It’s true that the NSX was stuck in we’ve seen recently. And it’s true that the car is often dismissed out of hand by the keyboard warriors for being too big, too heavy, too ugly, too hybrid or too far from the original. (Which , in case you’re wondering where my perspective’s at on this one.)

I have finally figured out what the new turbocharged, hybrid, all-wheel drive, 550 horsepower 2016…

It’s also true that pretty much every take I’ve read on this car, including our own, has been overwhelmingly positive. I’m eager to see what it can do for myself.

As you’ve probably seen, the new NSX packs a 3.5-liter V6 with two turbos and an all-wheel drive hybrid system good for a total of 573 horsepower. As I write this the car is parked across the street at our office in Manhattan, waiting to be unleashed. I’ll do that later today.

But for now, what do you want to know about it? What should we include in the review?

Sticker’s $205,000, by the way. We’ll see if it’s worth it.

Jalopnik Reviews: 2006 BMW M Roadster, Part 2
Jalopnik Reviews: 2006 BMW M Roadster, Part 2
The M Roadster shares its distinctive, shark-like front portion and polarizing "flame surfacing" with BMW's standard Z4 models. The M version's wider stance and copious rubber, however, serve to de-emphasize all those flaming surfaces. Such mo-sports muscularity resolves the model's inherent design tensions in the same way The Hulk's green...

Jalopnik Reviews: 2006 BMW M Roadster, Part 1
"Nice car, you yuppie prick," yells the guy in the Ford F-150 Lariat. Our paths had crossed along US 208 in upstate New York, a major battleground in the struggle between locals cashing in on a land grab by wealthy Manhattanites and that latter camp of — to some minds...

Jalopnik Reviews: 2006 BMW M Roadster, Part 3
Because it's a taut, brilliantly executed roadster in the tradition of great British roadsters — well, not exactly in their tradition. Think of the romanticized, open-top road car of your dreams, not the one whose parts fly off when it gets breezy. Also because you're also well-heeled enough, or willing...

Jalopnik Reviews; 2007 Saturn Sky, Part 1
Jalopnik Reviews; 2007 Saturn Sky, Part 1
Saturn-come-lately, the new kid in town/everybody loves you, so don't let them down. The Eagles make some great music for driving, and the Saturn Sky is a great car for driving. Really, any convertible makes for great driving, and the Sky is certainly one of those. But the Sky isn't...

Jalopnik Reviews: 2007 Saturn Sky, Part 2
The Sky is the hotness. The creased lines give it an aggressive look that almost eliminates the extreme aura of femininity that surrounds every small convertible, almost. That said, the styling is the Sky's best element. It even looks decent with the top up. It's too bad there's only one...

Jalopnik Reviews: 2007 Saturn Sky, Part 3
It's got those cool dent-resistant plastic hydroformed sheetmetal body panels. Really though, the Sky looks boss, especially for a car priced in the mid-20's. It gives us hope for the American auto industry that they can still make fun cars. The roof is annoying and trunk is pretty useless, and...
