It was a pleasure working on this poster car. The NSX is a 90s icon and this example is a low kilometre 1991 3.0 v6 which comes bolted to a 5 speed manual.
Developed with the assistance of Aerton Senna, it produced a v-tec induced, 270bhp, in a 1300kg mid-engined chassis.
No power steering, minimal electronic aids and a 7,300rpm redline. Excellent.
A two stage polish was required to required to dial out the worst of the swirl marks and scratches. Interesting side note, Honda tinted the clear coat red in the NSX to double down on the pop achieved by the paint (which very quickly turns your pads red).
The finish was locked in with Auto Exotica Infinity ceramic coating.
