Your comment about Ferrari interior shows you haven’t sat or driven any Ferrari that came out in past 10 years.
The cars in NSX price range - 911, R8, AMG GT have vastly superior interior quality and technology.

lol ok man, fine, looks are subjective. The crap obviously American interior, lack of a third pedal, and cosworth engine (7500 redline lol) are not.
And yes I know they assemble the parts from other companies to "make" the engine at a Honda plant in America. To me, that's not a real Honda engine.
What? None of that is true.And yes I know they assemble the parts from other companies to "make" the engine at a Honda plant in America. To me, that's not a real Honda engine.

So the mighty LFA and it's hauntingly beautiful wail is rubbish too because Yamaha worked on it?

An engine with outside influence is a travesty for a halo car from Honda MOTOR company.
i would argue you've presented a ridiculous and indefensible double standard. smh

Yamaha and Toyota have worked hand in hand for decades going back to the 2000GT and possibly earlier so I would submit there is a big difference in such a relationship versus an occasional or one off. Also Toyota owns a small share in Yamaha and partners with them because they have unique expertise in sound and machinery among other things.

Honda had a mass production engine that made 100hp/liter, reving to 8k and would last 150k miles easy......30 years ago!!
This car is overpriced trash, if it wasn't maybe they would sell more than 5 a month and not have to take $50k off msrp to move them.

This car needs a new interior and multimedia / gauges ASAP.
I drove one recently and was shocked how bad the interior tech / materials were.
I did enjoy driving it and it sounds really good.
They need to get rid of the hybrid crap and lower the price to $100k then it will steal some 911/R8 sales.

Now that thing is dead awful almost like Lotus, no wonder they go fast when they are like go-carts inside with two screens attached.R8 has the best interior layout and quality wise. NSX in my opinion is on level with Porsche, both have '00s inspired cockpit layout but with satisfying fit and finish.
