i never understood these types of videos, only thing that makes this one different is its a nice nsx and not some slammed vw.
different strokes.
Edit: Fast forward to 3:45 to skip the gay stuff.

Thank you. It was much needed after yawning at the NSX. Worst "exotic" ever. Slow, couldn't handle, and expensive to maintain....... NTM they are a PITA to work on.
Buddy had a 94' and I could never tell when he was at WOT by feel from the passenger seat. VTEC would change the exhaust pitch a bit, but it was still slow. Look over and its at 8k rpm, but it was going NO WHERE. On/Off ramps were just as weak, and a near stock 94 NA walked all over him the time or two he autox'd. Cool looking car, but not much else.

MY buddy on the other hand had a great one. white like the one in the video with wht. volk te37's, and a few bolt on's and it ripped for an n/a street car. he raced this ******** that thought his neon srt-4 was the baddest thing on wheels (it did have a bunch of mods and nitrous!) and was pretty quick, but lost from a dig and a roll, even with his nitrous. not that a nsx is a drag racing car, but if it was really slow, there was prolly something wrong.
now if you refer to the video i have posted below, you will see that it more than hangs tough with other super cars. including ones with 12 cyl. and double the whp! your demonizing of the nsx isn't really your fault. it's just like racism, because of what your parents brought you up like, or maybe a bad experience (which is this case) you base your opinion on a whole race (or model of car) on ignorance through no fault of your own. i was the same way too at own time.
enjoy:

Enjoyed, but at the same time, disappointed about the lack of American muscle. Say what you will, but you cannot deny the viper and vette are both two forces to be reckon with.
When I got to ride in his near stock car, I was used to my 347 H/C FRC which spent a good deal of time on V710's.... So our POV's might be skewed (not sure what your honest bases of quick is). They are sweet looking cars, and it used to get that kid more "kitty" than he could handle.
