Honda NSX 3.0 L VTEC V6 1991
Allgemeine Beschreibung :
When you think of Honda/Acura, what do you see? Better yet, when you think of Honda/Acura in the '90s, what do you see? Fun and pragmatic runabouts like the Integra and Prelude? Well, that's to be expected, since everyone's favorite manufacturer of high-revving imports has built quite the reputation for technological and industrious transportation. And that reputation is exactly why classics like this first-year NSX are such cool finds. Virtually every automaker has to build its fair share of vanilla appliances. But there's just something incredibly exciting when a 'big seven' behemoth throws caution to the wind and lets its engineers do the talking. Sporting only 15,515 miles that were logged by one enthusiastic owner, this NSX is an unmodified beauty that's always resided in the mild confines of the southern United States. Want an incredible modern classic that's virtually guaranteed to build equity? This well-preserved Acura is your hot ticket!
HISTORY/CONDITION
During the late '80s and early '90s, Toyota, Honda and Nissan enjoyed unprecedented success as they built powerhouse brands that could compete with the world's biggest automakers. That success inspired Honda, already well-known for its efficiency and engineering expertise, to create what they considered an 'everyman's super car'. Enter the elegant NSX, with its highly advanced engine, forged aluminum suspension and all-aluminum body. This super clean NSX is a first-year model that was ordered by its one and only owner three years before production even started. That's right, the owner, who had carefully followed development of the car, was such a fan that he decided to just show up at his local dealer with cash in hand. The salesperson he spoke with had no idea the car was even being engineered but, upon checking with his manager, was happy to take the deposit. When the beloved NSX arrived, the owner traded in his early '60s Corvette. And today, this Acura rolls as an unmodified, low-mileage garage queen that, residing in the southern United States, has never seen snow and rarely seen rain.
ENGINE
To many folks, the sign of a true super car is exclusivity, and exclusivity is one area where the NSX has major chops. Toss this coupe's hatch and you'll find a 3.0 liter C30A V6 that, due to its cost and complexity, was never fitted to another production Honda. That's virtually unheard of in the modern era of platform sharing, global propulsion systems and government certifications. Mixing the brand's proven V-TEC variable valve timing with variable volume induction, that all-aluminum mill turns a respectable 270 horses and an impressive 210 lb./ft. of torque into a pleasingly flat power curve that tops out at 8,000 RPM. That level of revolution can be reliably maintained thanks to iron-sleeved cylinders, a lightweight rotating assembly and the C30A being one of the first mass-produced powerplants to utilize titanium connecting rods. Those meritorious powertrain characteristics, the same mindset shared by the car's high-strung S2000 brethren, are no doubt aided by 24-valve heads, which are wired with electronic fuel injection and direct ignition. And, as you can see from our high-resolution photos, the engine is every bit as fresh as a 26-year-old classic can be, with most of its ancillary components showing minimal wear.
DRIVETRAIN/SUSPENSION
Park this NSX on a lift and you'll find a well-preserved undercarriage that, according to the car's current owner, has only seen one rain event. Behind the V6, a twin-plate clutch kicks a row-it-yourself 5-speed, which spins a limited-slip differential around aggressive, 3.18 gears. Below that drivetrain, a forged aluminum, fully independent suspension, which remains exactly as it was back in 1991, benefits from standard traction control. That chassis turns thanks to electronically assisted rack-and-pinion steering. At the corners, power disc brakes utilize 4-channel ABS to increase stopping performance. There's a pristine exhaust system, which gives the engine a signature growl. And everything rides on forged alloy wheels, which, benefitting from the car's well-known tire recall, spin 205/50ZR15 Yokohamas in front of 225/50ZR16 Yokohamas.
INTERIOR
Behind the doors, a weather-free interior offers a great balance between daily and high performance needs. Original bucket seats wrap tight leather around 4-way power adjustment. Between those seats, a molded console centers a leather-wrapped shifter behind a choice Bose sound system, which has been fully rebuilt, and automatic climate control, which benefits from a new compressor. The car's sculpted, color-keyed dashboard is in great shape and free of cracks and scratches. The carpet, protected by NSX themed floor mats, and leather door panels, framing controls for an array of power accessories, retain their showroom charm. In front of the driver, a leather-wrapped, Acura-branded steering wheel laps a tilt and telescopic column. Behind the passengers, a carpeted cargo hold hides a factory air compressor and aluminum jack with enough room for a couple of weekend bags or even a set of golf clubs. And everything, from the car's factory Cruise Control to its standard theft deterrent system, is lucid and ready to hit the road.

über Honda
Heute begeben wir uns auf eine Reise durch die Annalen der Automobilgeschichte, insbesondere durch die Geschichte der Honda-Autos bis zum Ende der 1980er Jahre. Es ist die Geschichte eines Unternehmens mit einem unerschütterlichen Engagement für technische Exzellenz und einem bescheidenen Engagement dafür, das Autofahren besser zu machen.Unsere Reise beginnt mit dem Honda N360, einem kleinen Kei-Car, das die Essenz des Nachkriegsjapans einfängt. Es war winzig, einfach und perfekt, um durch die überfüllten Straßen der Stadt zu navigieren. Hondas erster Ausflug in die Automobilwelt verlief bescheiden, zeigte aber sein Engagement für praktische und effiziente Transportmöglichkeiten.
Als nächstes lernen wir den Honda Civic kennen, ein Auto, das keiner Vorstellung bedarf. Es kam Anfang der 70er Jahre auf den Markt und gab den Ton für die kommenden Jahrzehnte an. Der Civic war kompakt, zuverlässig und effizient, ein Auto, das still und leise die Herzen von Autofahrern auf der ganzen Welt eroberte.
Weiter geht es mit dem Honda Accord, einem Modell, das die Vorzüge von Praktikabilität und Zuverlässigkeit vereint. Es war ein Familienauto, auf das man sich verlassen konnte. Es machte kein Aufhebens; Es hat einfach seinen Zweck erfüllt.
Lassen Sie uns nun über den Honda CVCC sprechen, ein Auto, das die Umweltbelange der 1970er Jahre berücksichtigte. Es führte den CVCC-Motor ein, eine bahnbrechende Technologie, die Emissionen reduzierte und den Weg für sauberere, kraftstoffeffizientere Motoren ebnete.
Die 80er-Jahre brachten den Honda Prelude auf den Markt, ein sportliches Coupé, das den Zeitgeist verkörperte. Es war ein Auto, das es wagte, etwas anders und stilvoller zu sein. Das Prelude war ein Einblick in die Fähigkeit von Honda, Praktikabilität mit einem Hauch von Sportlichkeit zu verbinden.
Und natürlich gibt es den Honda CRX, ein kompaktes und agiles Fließheck, das bei Enthusiasten beliebt ist. Es war ein Auto, das „Spaß“ in „Funktionalität“ verwandelte. Mit seinem leichten Design und den kraftvollen Motoren war es ein Kinderspiel, ihn zu fahren.
Schließlich kommen wir zum Honda NSX, einem Supersportwagen, der das Spiel verändert hat. Es war Hondas Art zu sagen: „Auch wir können Außergewöhnliches leisten.“ Der NSX war ein Wunder der Technik, ein Mittelmotor-Meisterwerk, das Größen wie Ferrari herausforderte.
Da haben Sie sie also, die Geschichte von Honda bis zum Ende der 1980er Jahre. Es ist eine Geschichte von Autos, die weder brüllten noch prahlten, sondern still und heimlich ihrer Arbeit nachgingen und effiziente, zuverlässige und ausgereifte Lösungen für den Alltag lieferten.
Und wenn wir über diese bescheidenen, aber innovativen Fahrzeuge nachdenken, werden wir daran erinnert, dass es manchmal die unauffälligen, gut verarbeiteten Dinge sind, die den bleibendsten Eindruck hinterlassen. Ganz großartig, wirklich.
