About the NSX 3.0 VTEC (253 Hp) RWD Auto

The automatic NA1 lost 17 hp due to a different ECU tune and the four-speed torque converter added 40 kg. Purists dismiss it. Reality is more nuanced — the automatic NSX was still a mid-engine Honda VTEC V6 with aluminum construction and supercar handling. For buyers who wanted the NSX experience in Los Angeles traffic, the automatic made daily ownership effortless. Not the one to buy. But not the mistake people claim.
