We traveled to Japan to discuss the history and development of the first-generation NSX with the original Honda engineering team responsible for cars such as Integra and S2000. They helped explain the past and how it applies to the future application of sports cars. While the original owners and design team continue to age, the car stays relevant thanks to a new generation of enthusiasts, keeping the story alive.
