Acura today celebrated the highly anticipated line-off of the first serial production 2017 Acura NSX at the new Performance Manufacturing Center (PMC) in Marysville, Ohio. The PMC is the exclusive manufacturing home to Acura's next-generation NSX, the only supercar made in America.
"Today marks the realization of a big dream here at the PMC and the culmination of more than 30 years of manufacturing experience and expertise here in Ohio," said Clement D'Souza, engineering large project leader for the Acura NSX. "Our world class team of expert technicians, through their passion, has realized major innovations in the design and manufacturing of a next-generation Acura supercar that truly delivers incredible precision crafted performance."
The first customer, Rick Hendrick, earned the right to custom order the first production NSX with a winning bid of $1.2 million at the Barrett-Jackson auction in January. All proceeds from the sale went to the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation and Camp Southern Ground. Hendrick drove his Valencia Red Pearl Acura NSX off the line. VIN 001 features exclusive interwoven wheels, carbon ceramic brake rotors, leather and Alcantara interior trim and carbon fiber upgrades including the engine cover, roof, and rear decklid spoiler.
Curb weight: 3,803 lbs
Horsepower: 573 hp
Engine: 3.5 L V6
MSRP: From $156,000
Warranty: 4 yr/50,000 mi basic, 6 yr/70,000 mi powertrain
MPG: 21 city / 22 highway

Pretty slick.
I've heard some reviews say it was a bit of a disappointment, though.

Yep...it would be hard to attach truck nuts to them.

Hate Acura's new body styling (on all newer models), especially the rear - it's hideous.
I do, however like the car. My buddy still has a first gen model that's fun.

I would love to know how many serial number one cars ole Rick has. I know that number had to have grown by a good bit when Ron Pratte sold his entire collection in 2015.

As a huge car guy, this really does nothing for me. The design already looks dated and it really has nothing in common with the first NSX. Though I am excited that Acura/Honda is getting back into the game. I just wish I had enough money a few years ago to pick up a NSX before they tripled in price to what they are today.

If there's a SN1 at Barret Jackson, he'll be staring it down

Does the new TLX come in a V8?

Looks nice but... I'd take an older model before it.

I mean I know why other people bid bc it goes to charity, but you aren't going to outbid him unless he lets you. Lucky bastard.

It kinda reminds me of what Clarkson said about the McLaren MP4-12C.
"It's great but it feels clinical and antiseptic"

The (separate) electric motor vectoring of the front wheels is a pretty cool technological advancement. Hope the complexity doesn't create repair issues for them.
