When the Honda NSX two-seat mid-engined sports car was released in 1990, it was widely regarded to be Japan’s first proper supercar. NSX stands for New Sports car – eXperimental, and saw inspiration from many corners including Formula 1 and the F-16 jet fighter. It also showcased Honda’s now-ubiquitous VTEC system, and received development input from the late great Aryton Senna. In the United States, the NSX was sold under Honda’s premium Acura badge, which showcased its positioning appropriately. Today, we have a nice 1991 Acura NSX for sale from Tampa. This car has driven just over 84,000 miles so far and comes with the original owner’s manual and service records. Furthermore, it's got an all-aluminum monocoque frame, a feature that the NSX was the first production car in the world to have.
