GT7 | '02 Honda NSX Type R | Gran Turismo 7 Car Review | NSX-R

The 2002 Honda NSX-R was already a beast of a car when we last saw it in GT6, and with its return in GT7, I'm happy to be able to say that it still is. Had this machine been featured in GT SPORT as well, boy it would've been an OP monster with that game's power based ranking system...
''Beginning in November of 1992, the first generation NSX Type R was available over the course of a limited three year period run, and then became an icon. Seven years later, a new NSXR was shown as a concept car at the 2001 Tokyo Motor Show, reviving the legend.
And not long after, the NSX Type R once again became available to the public when it went on sale in May of 2002. Why such a long period between the Type R models? With the base NSX's performance already so high, engineers elected to wait for new cutting-edge automotive technology to incorporate into their rather than just carry over pre-existing packages.
Special emphasis was placed not on the engine, which was addressed when the second-generation NSX's power plant had its displacement increased and was fitted with a new 6 speed manual transmission, but in the area of aerodynamics. The work done in this area resulted in a rare feat for a commercially available vehicle; a shape that not only produced negative lift but generated downforce.
In order to achieve this newfound aerodynamic efficiency, a newly-shaped hood and rear wing were created; lightweight carbon fiber was used in these vital components. The final result was a new NSX Type R that became the first street-legal road car to lap the famed Nürburgring course in less than 8 minutes, an unheard of feat for a full-fledged production car at the time.''

An absolute legend! The NSX will always be a favorite of mine! Great review as always!

PTSD to launch GT7 players where A-9 featured the older NSX round Suzuka. I miss when License tests were nightmares.

I remember hating that one...took me longer than the final F1 test did

Hands down is my favorite NSX and it’s sad that how it feared in the market to offer so much. The NA1,NA2 and the NC1 weren’t received well.
