ACCELERATION

T, man. Class Average
9 7.4

Smooth and exciting with manual transmission. Impressive with automatic, despite smaller engine.

FUEL ECONOMY

T, man. Class Average
6 4.7

Excellent for a quick "exotic." Our 6-speed test cars averaged 19.1 and 22 mpg.

RIDE QUALITY

T, man. Class Average
2 3.4

Firm but not punishing, although ride motions are choppy on rough pavement.

STEERING/HANDLING/BRAKING

T, man. Class Average
10 7.6

Excellent grip, minimal body lean, but tail wag demands caution in fast tight turns.

QUIETNESS

T, man. Class Average
4 3.6

Wind noise is low, but tires thrum on coarse pavement. Engine isn't too noisy for being right behind your ears.

CONTROLS

T, man. Class Average
7 5.1

Easy to see, understand, and operate.

ROOM/COMFORT/DRIVER SEATING (FRONT)

T, man. Class Average
5 4.7

Generous leg space, but head room is just adequate for 6-footers. Low build and long doors hamper entry/exit.

CARGO ROOM

T, man. Class Average
1 2.2

Trunk in rear holds several medium-size soft bags. No front trunk. The T's roof panel stores neatly on the engine cover.

VALUE WITHIN CLASS

T, man. Class Average
2 2.5

Some may pine for more raw power, but if you've got the money, the NSX offers all the usual rewards of a true exotic with almost none of the usual drawbacks.
