NSX Trivia & Fun Facts

Most supercars are built to be admired. This one was built to be used. In 1984 Honda commissioned a mid-engine concept car from Pininfarina, and the project that grew out of it set itself an unusual target: a car that could be measured against Ferrari, but that an ordinary person could drive every day. Ninety verified questions — the all-aluminium body, what Senna really did at the Nürburgring, the first Type R, and the racing car that won its class at Le Mans.

Q21 · PART 3 · SENNA AND THE RING
What word did Senna use about the NSX prototype’s body after driving it?
Fragile. According to Honda’s own account, Senna said he was not sure he could give advice about a mass-production car, but that he felt it was a little fragile. The team took it seriously and set a tougher stiffness target for the body.
