The further developed series of the Honda NSX went into production in 2002. The NSX is now considered a classic of automotive production, thanks to its innovative features and the widespread use of aluminum in the general project. Powered by a 2977cc engine (for 255 HP), the 2002 NSX remained in production for three years. At the same time, Honda added an even more extreme version to the catalog, the NSX-R, with a 3179cc and 280 horsepower engine. Like the previous ones, also the NSX of this generation have experienced a competitive use, especially in the Japanese GT.
