About the NSX 3.0 VTEC Type R (270 Hp) RWD
Same 270 hp. Same C30A engine. 140 kg less weight. The NSX-R achieved its transformation through subtraction: deleted sound insulation, lightweight Recaro seats, forged alloy wheels, carbon fiber hood, and single-pane rear glass. The suspension was retuned by Honda's racing engineers with firmer springs, stiffer dampers, and revised geometry. At 1,230 kg, the power-to-weight ratio transformed the NSX from fast to devastating. The R is the version Senna would have driven — raw, immediate, and uncompromising.
