Two of the Greatest Sports Cars Ever Produced By Honda
Honda is one of the largest automakers in the world and is based in Japan. They are known today for producing some of the most reliable and fuel efficient cars in the world available at very reasonable prices. The Honda Motor Company is not particularly well known for producing fast sports cars, but that doesn’t mean that they haven’t. We are going to take a look at two of the greatest sports cars ever produced by the Japanese automaker.
The first car we have included is the Honda Prelude which was produced from the years 1978 to 2001. The Honda Prelude was a 2-door coupe. There were five different generations of the Prelude produced and the last generation was produced from 1997 to 2001. The car was very popular among sports enthusiasts and a lot of people tuned the Prelude even further to increase horsepower and overall performance. The Prelude SiR S-Spec model had the most horsepower at 220, but Honda only sold this particular model in Japan. This was actually a lot of power in the time the car was produced making it very competitive when compared with other sports car models. Honda eventually discontinued production due to weakening sales numbers as the Prelude was competing with other strong models being produced by Honda at the time.
The next car on our list is the Honda NSX, perhaps the most well known car ever produced by Honda among auto enthusiasts. The NSX was also sold under the Acura brand name in North America and Hong Kong. The NSX was produced from 1990 to 2005. The NSX competed with other sports cars from Ferrari, Porsche, and Lamborghini. The cars stunningly good looks were thanks to the fact that Honda commissioned the Italian car designer Pininfarina to design the concept car that the NSX was originally based off of. Pininfarina is most well known for designing cars for Ferrari.
