Manufacture and release:
Upon its release in 1991, the NSX was a design ahead of its time. It was the first time that a Japanese automaker had made a car to compete against the products of the traditional European exotic car manufacturers and the infamous Chevy Corvette. Besides competing against these manufacturers the car was also intended to showcase Honda's racing technology, exemplified by the NSX's six titanium connecting rods. The car was designed with the input of Ayrton Senna.
