    Type S (Upgrades only add up to 600 HP?)

    I can appreciate this. Obviously if you want the car to hold up to the abuse to perform these maneuvers then CC is undoubtedly the way to go. I've heard something similar with driving style with this car. That when the car understeers you need to turn into it harder and push the throttle more...

    Type S (Upgrades only add up to 600 HP?)

    That's interesting, I didn't know that. It's too bad then that so many of the initial reviews dissed on the 2017 car. I feel like nearly every professional reviewer had their mind made up before they even sat in the car. It's like they looked at the specs and thought "this is heavy and...

    Type S (Upgrades only add up to 600 HP?)

    I love those videos and have watched them a few times. In your experience do you think that red roll racing NSX is tuned? I can't imagine that thing is stock. I love how the Corvette and 911 are racing and the NSX walks by them out of nowhere. I think it's awesome that DragTimes has posted...

    Type S (Upgrades only add up to 600 HP?)

    Exactly the type of input I was looking for with this thread. It's not pretentious; you're not freaking out because I mentioned Dodge and telling me I should just go own one if I can't appreciate the car! You're not dissing on me because I can't afford CC brakes (I probably can) and implying I...

    wow, it was a joke. Guess I should have picked a different line to quote.

    Type S (Upgrades only add up to 600 HP?)

    I’ve noticed there are two types of people in this forum, people who are way cool and those who like you who are pretentious AF! Makes me want to take delivery of my car and release a bunch of YouTube videos showing how pathetic the FU..ING Dodge is compared to my Non-blind spot having NSX. I...

    Type-S Announced

    Those are two great cars to have. I hope you get your Type S. The Viper is such a horrible yet fun car. I'm always walking past the significantly better F-Type in the garage to drive it. People lose their freaking minds when I'm in that car. I have a feeling the rarity of the NSX might do...

    Type S (Upgrades only add up to 600 HP?)

    I went with standard brakes with the same thought of them making more financial sense. For street driving the CC are supposed to last around 100k miles but I think the risk is pretty high that they won't. Then again, even if they failed at half that (50,000 miles) it's a long ways away but...

    Type-S Announced

    I'm curious if you own a Viper. I have a 2001 GTS. It would be wild having this totally analog zero nanny Viper sitting next to a technological tour de force NSX. Hard to have more contrast between two cars other than getting a Tesla and that's not an option for me. Keeping the thread on...

    Type S (Upgrades only add up to 600 HP?)

    Not sure you followed the logic. If we want we can compare the NSX to cars at its price level which would be far more fair. The reference with the RedEye is how it's a product that has power, a warranty, and meets emissions and will also drive in death valley to the top of pikes peak...

    Type S (Upgrades only add up to 600 HP?)

    True and well written. I guess the only thing I'm left scratching my head with is RedEye. Dodge could meet all those requirements while pumping out 797 hp. You can fire it up in death valley without being stranded. It'll run flawlessly in Fairbanks Alaska and it'll run perfectly fine at the...

    Type S (Upgrades only add up to 600 HP?)

    The Type S gets bump of 27 hp and 16 lb-ft torque over the regular car with a bunch of upgrades which seems crazy small to me. We're talking new turbos, intercoolers, and injectors from the GT3 race car and it only puts out 27 more hp? I almost feel like you'd have to detune it with new turbos...

    Type-S Announced

    From the video it makes it sound like Acura confirmed he has an order but you're saying it's really them reaching out to say "We have received your order. The dealer should have reached out to you but we haven't actually made up our mind whether you get one", something like that. I understand...

    Type-S Announced

    This guy says he was called today by Acura concierge confirming they have his request for an NSX. He went to a dealer that didn't have a guaranteed allocation. According to one of his videos he put in a deposit for a regular NSX around March 2020 and was never able to get a car but had them...

    I did give them the $10k deposit that morning. I have the receipt from the transaction. The excel spreadsheet that says "2022 NSX Type S" on the top has my specs. I wanted Red and picked black as the alternate. The bottom of that doc has a header that says "NSX TEAM" and the fields are...

    Which color to order the new 2022 Type S NSX?

    I specced out Curva Red (black as secondary option), red seats with black center, gloss black wheels, and nothing else. With Acura demanding the build sheet the night I put down my deposit I didn't have time to think about the lightweight package which would have changed everything. The...

    Type-S Announced

    I ran to my dealer the day after the press release and supposedly got their second allocation. They called me that night and said "Acura needs your configuration tonight!". Taken aback, I asked about having the night to decide what color and options I wanted. They said "Sorry, we have to...

    Type S demand (why I'm purchasing)

    You know, I'm psyched that I could even get a car. I was working on getting a used 2017 and some rich guy with cash bought it out from under me. I figure most of these cars will go to dealer owners, their freeloading kids, or someone who has connections with the dealer. That's probably a...

    Type S demand (why I'm purchasing)

    My youtube name is chillznax. I haven't made a video in awhile, I'm pretty bad at it. I have been posting lately to my instagram account just because it's so easy. That account is chillznax1. I plan on posting a ton of NSX stuff with my friends when I get the car. I'm so jealous of you all...

    Type S demand (why I'm purchasing)

    Ignition_Key You're right, it took Honda way too long to bring out this car. Similar to the issue Toyota had with the LFA. Concerning you not buying German or Italian. I hadn't even considered the market of buyers who wouldn't buy those cars. That leaves out a TON of cars.
