NSX To Be The Most Expensive And Advanced Car Ever Built In the US

NSX To Be The Most Expensive And Advanced Car Ever Built In the US
Honda Motor Co.'s decision to build what it calls a racing-oriented "supercar" in Ohio highlights confidence in its U.S. engineers and plants.

It also shows the difficulty of producing autos in Japan as the yen rises.

When the high-performance hybrid Acura NSX goes on sale within three years, it will be the most expensive and technologically advanced car ever built in the United States by an Asian or European automaker.

The article says "...The original $89,000 NSX that sold from 1989 to 2005 was built in Suzuka, Japan, and was favored by performance-car fans for its high power and light, all-aluminum body..."

In fact, it's 270 bhp V6 was criticized for being UNDERpowered. So much for accurate media reporting.

The new NSX is challenged by Acura's styling, which includes the traditional "parrot beak" grill and angular kit-car rear end. The profile looks good, however.

I was never impressed with the NSX. Cool for the time, but was outclassed in 18 months and never caught up.

Sounds like the R8.

What is the most expensive vehicle that has been built in the USA so far? Ford GT?

It depends on whether Honda means the most expensive car to manufacture or the most expensive car built in America at retail.

The Saleen S7 in top spec easily cost more than the Ford GT, which price was inflated by the dealer network. If you want to go way back, don't forget the Vector.

Blacks make up 13% of the overall U.S. population - what's your best guess? Do they make up more than 13% of welfare recipients?


"The per capita income for the overall population in 2008 was $26,964; for non-Hispanic Whites, it was $31,313; for Blacks, it was
$18,406; for Asians, it was $30,292; and for Hispanics, it was $15,674."

Simple, I don't post hateful comments about religion, race, or anything else that is offensive. You don't get banned for simply having a view point that differs.

The most expensive and advanced I think is the Tuatara or Ultimate Aero right?

Yes I think you're correct. Also, Moslers get quite expensive (>$300,000)... and then there is the new Hennessy Venom.

Maybe Honda needed a more technically advanced workforce to assemble their next masterpiece.

I watched coverage of the Detroit Auto Show and they said the new NSX was engineered in America.

Hateful obama wants to rob all wealthy people and target them as pariahs to society.
Who will be left in the new communist America to buy expensive cars? Guess only odumbo.
