Overview & Reviews

For the first time since the car's introduction in 1991, the 2002 Acura NSX receives a variety of styling enhancements. These include new fixed HID headlights, freshened front and rear bumpers and updated exhaust tips. Inside, six new color schemes are available. These schemes can be matched to the car's exterior color for a customized look. The center panel has also been updated with new chrome plating. Mechanically, the NSX remains unchanged, though the suspension has been retuned and larger wheels have been fitted.

• The 2002 Acura NSC is one of the best-handling cars sold in America, user-friendly and comfortable cabin, still turns heads 11 years after its debut.

• High price, minimal mechanical changes since its debut, sophisticated VTEC powerplant underwhelms American muscle-car mentalities.

  This car had been underrated by so many! - 2002 Acura NSX
  By NSX Prototype - October 31 - 2:00 am

  For those who rate sports cars by its ability to "flex" its muscles (i.e., Raw Horsepower), then youll be surprised that this "merely 290HP" NSX can outrun most stock sports cars that has more much more HP on the drag strip as well as on the track. The engine has the 2nd best soundtrack of any sports car (I rank Ferraris on the top of my list). Words arent enough to describe the feeling this car gives to the driver or even the passenger. You MUST drive this car for yourself to realize its worth every penny.

  Couldnt be happier - 2002 Acura NSX
  By rjk - October 16 - 2:00 am

  The more I researched this car, the more I thought Id like it, but I hadnt even begun to understand how much Id have liked it. Driving this car is as fun as driving it for the first time every time I get in it. Truly spectacular. Worth the extra 30 thousand dollars over the Corvette -- this thing has *soul*.

  Advantage of driving a corvette: It goes fast Advantage of driving an NSX: Luxury Style Handling It turns heads feels solid at ANY speed a real gearbox STREETABLE TORQUE! (ever heard of TOO MUCH TORQUE? The Corvette was rediculous - had to start it like a grandma or risk standing still in a burnout) havent had a single reliability issue with it in 23,000 miles.

  This NSX is awesome compared to Z06 - 2002 Acura NSX
  By laseca - May 18 - 2:00 am

  Ive driven a ZO6 for a few days before buying the NSX. Heres a comparison: The Z06s steering is too light No feel. Shifting is truck-like. Body rigidity is worse than my 11 year old Honda. Ergonomics are pathetic. Controls vintage 1970. Build quality poor. Wavy panels, uneven gaps. Acceleration and braking are much better than the NSX. Handling is about equal. The Z06 feels half sports car and half truck. The shift feel is horribly coarse. This car feels like an old rattly crapbox with a big engine stuffed into it. There is none of the hi-tech feel one gets from most modern cars. Sure it costs less than a new NSX but I dont see the attraction at all. You get what you pay for.

  The Fabulous NSX - 2002 Acura NSX
  By Dverpr - May 14 - 2:00 am

  My Blue Beauty has been my dream car all of my life. It was well worth the money I spent. It hums down the highway at exciti9ng speeds. If you have the money buy one. Haggle with the dealer, they will always knock down the price. Not everyday does someone want to buy an NSX.

  Americans expect more for $90,000 - 2002 Acura NSX
  By Potential Buyer - May 9 - 2:00 am

  Yes, Im impressed that it has a top speed of 175 mph for only having 290 hp. Yes, I like the way it looks and handles and all the exotic materials like the all aluminum body and titanium connecting rods. The interior leaves little to be desired. I mean even the Acura RSX has a more modern looking interior then the NSX. I especially like the white gauges in the RSX. Come on Acura, or actually the Honda Motor Company, if you want to sell more NSXs you have got to get with the program. High "Horsepower" equals to high sales in America. Ok you got the looks, dont be stingy with the power.

  A fine instrument - 2002 Acura NSX
  By Kiwi - May 8 - 2:00 am

  Ill take hand-crafted aluminum over American plastic any day. As far as performance, too many muscle-heads are fixated on size. If you want cubes, get yourself a Caddy with an 8-liter V8. The NSX is a scalpel and the Corvette is an axe. To join the legions of macho men that have the world looking at your tail lights, buy the Vette. If you want every twist and turn in the road to be brought to life under your steering wheel and dont have the money for a Ferrarri, the NSX is for you.
