I think it is a NSX Type S not that I knew because I don't think we here in the UK have the Acura brand but that's what a quick search would suggest. Looks the business and with some serious 600 hp and 492 lb/ft torque. Oh, and it's a 3.5 litre V6 hybrid so what's not to like

Congrats on that rare model. Yes, that's an Acura NSX Type S - only 350 units were made as a final year "hoorah" for the model.

i never understood this thing. The powertrain, the weird styling, no wonder it didnt sell and the interior is plasticy as heck for a 200k car.

Should have never been labeled a NSX as it doesnt pay homage at all to the original

that interior is shameful in a car that costs this much. Give me that na v8 screaming and I’ll see you at 60 a sec or two slower.

This car was on my list of cars I looked at when buying my LC.

I didn't care for the interior after seeing it in person so I moved on.

Congrats to you, though!

New toys are always fun!!!!

in this day and age of EV's that blow 0-60 away in 1.99 seconds, traditional motored supercars really dont make any sense unless its some sort of a throwback to days of a bygone era (which the LC is the epitome of).

I was watching Top Gear while in the UK last week. They had a Lambo that cost almost 2 million. In order to make it faster they removed the seats (yes the actual seats) and just left a pastic/carbon fiber place to sit on and a couple of cushions. Basically stripped it down to bare bones. Even the windshield was plastic to save on weight. The Acura in this thread (along with other "super cars") are not made for daily driving, comfort, practicality, etc. Just made for pure speed and to be used on the track. The LC was never designed to be anything like a "super car". I even thought the Corvette C8 was too "racey". Can't imagine how these cars would do on pothole filled roads
