Stock NSXs 98+ go low 13s-high 12s @ 105-107, 91-97 mid-high 13s…

Anyone who can’t get an NSX into the 13s stock needs a boot to the face.

They gave it .2L more displacement, more HP, and a 6 spd gear box in 98.

The NSX was designed, priced, and sold to be a super affordable competitor to the Ferrari 348 and Ferrari 355. Which it was. It was as fast or faster than every 348 and as fast or faster than every 355.

The NSX was never NOT competitive in its class. Even against the 360 Modena, although for the first time the Ferrari was faster than the Honda.

The NSX was NOT NOT NOT designed to compete with american V8 Muscle cars.
