Ignorance is a weakness..
13 second car with a mere 280 flywheel hp. Power to weight is key. The NSX is built for the racetrack though, not driving in a straight line, so it's priorities were placed elsewhere. You want dedication to the lightweight = fast mindset? When Honda's engineers were trying to figure out how to shave even more weight off the NSX type-r, they replaced the shift boot with chainmail mesh, because it weighed less.
You don't need a big V8 to have a fast street car, you need light weight. Light weight requires less power, thus less stress on the drivetrain, not to mention nice fuel mileage.
In the end, you're still a prime example of why guys who drive Japanese cars tend to dislike domestics. You refuse to accept that the muscle car era ended 30 years ago. You refuse to acknowledge a fast car, reguardless of where it's from, while giving it the respect any fast car should deserve.
You are not a car enthusiast. A car enthusiast respects a fast car, reguardless of displacement or turbo size. Stop giving your fellow domestic enthusiasts a bad name.
