A friend of mine (Haredcore JDM guy)claims the original NSX was never that great
he continued saying the NSX was just "the result of a previous generation's biased hype"

he also said the NSX never won races like the MR2,R32, and supra did.

>Is he wrong?

Wait this guy is hardcore JDM and says the NSX never won races? I'm pretty sure your friend is parroting someone else's opinion and has literally zero fucking clue since NSX dominated more in Japan than anywhere else. You think the cult following for that car is insane in the US? Holy fuck the japs STILL go absolutely bananas for it. Tell your probably teenaged friend to shut the fuck up and save yourself the time by never listening to that shithead again lol.

the NSX was the fastes JDM car before the R35 GTR, he is a dumbass

Is this guy a GTR fanboy?

>fastest car around Tsukuba
>not great

fd was always the faster car

What?? This shit is iconic. Tell your friend to suck my dick

>what is the JGTC

Looking back at Wikipedia, the NSX didn't dominate it as much as I thought it did. Still is badass for managing to fair better than the new NSX though.

>class win at Le Mans
>JGTC/Super GT wins and championships
>best looking race car ever, a win by itself
is the best imo

I don't know that much about the NSX, but even I know it's pretty legendary

>slower than 40,000 cheaper E36 M3 while having 40hp more and 300lbs less
>2 seconds slower than the pigfat "can't turn" MKIV Supra

How could they even compete? Let me tell you, they didn't. And frankly if I was a richfag in 1997 I'd get two M3s or a 911 instead. Maybe a MKIV.

NSXs are hyped up meme cars. Only special because of their Ferrari like styling and pricetag. They really weren't that special.

b-baka

Wrong, the FD was faster.

>Haredcore JDM guy

I refuse to believe those Viper stats, especially those g-forces

Not that I've driven one.

it was basically a locost kit car with a 400hp v10 from a dodge pickup and 275 wide front/335 wide rear tires on it

the g-force stats are solely from the wide tires, that said they're supposed to be tamer cars than people give them credit for

>they're supposed to be tamer cars than people give them credit for

They are only a real menace in the wet, even damp, yes.

It's extremely over rated.

Retarded weebs don't understand that a Super GT car and a production car are not at all related.

>muh senna

the gts was an incredible car. It was a slightly comfortable street legal race car.

>Super GT car and a production car are not at all related

this

a fucking civic and a NSX have far more in common than production NSX and super GT NSX, the latter is a silhouette racing car

>FD was faster

Yeah nah famalam youtu.be/_reepMP3Htg
