Overview

The Acura NSX was developed as Honda's ambitious foray into the high-performance market, debuting in 1990. Challenging European dominance in the sports car segment, the groundbreaking vehicle was conceptualized to provide a potent combination of performance and reliability. Development of the NSX leveraged Honda's extensive experience in Formula 1 racing with novel tech tip to tail. The car’s mid-engine layout, an all-aluminum monocoque body—a first for a production car, and a model-specific V6 engine with VTEC variable valve timing signaled a new era in Honda’s performance legacy.

Reportedly the earliest US-market example sold, this Formula Red 1991 Acura NSX shows the icon in fine form. Ergonomic interior surroundings present trimmed in all black leather facing a suite of analog gauges. Of-the-era premium equipment includes a Bose AM/FM/Cassette stereo, leather-wrapped touchpoints, and power-adjustable seating. Factory-rated at 270hp, the car’s 3.0-liter V6 engine routes power rearward via five-speed manual shifting. Aluminum double-wishbone suspension components and four-wheel disc brakes communicate engaging dynamics. Clad in Bridgestone Potenza tires, staggered 16” front/17” rear BBS ‘Bugatti’ wheels with red center caps hold the road. Pop-up headlights and a low, wide stance, make this NSX instantly recognizable as a historic 90s hero car. A clean title, Carfax report, and third-party inspection report accompany the sale.
