Overview

The Honda NSX NC1 represents one of the most technically advanced supercars ever produced by Honda and this exceptional 2017 example offers buyers the opportunity to secure a highly desirable left hand drive model directly from Japan.

Finished in stunning Nouvelle Blue Pearl Metallic with a full black leather interior, this Honda NSX NC1 has covered just 10,979km from new, equivalent to approximately 6,822 miles. Finding low mileage examples is becoming increasingly difficult, but finding a low mileage left hand drive example is rarer still.

For buyers in Europe and the UAE, this configuration is particularly desirable as it eliminates the compromises often associated with importing right hand drive vehicles. Combined with its low mileage, premium specification and advanced hybrid drivetrain, this NSX represents one of the most attractive examples currently available through the Japanese auction system.

Awarded Auction Grade 4.5 with Interior Grade B, the vehicle presents exceptionally well and benefits from a number of expensive factory options including carbon fibre exterior and interior packages together with carbon ceramic brakes.

Auction start price is approximately £75,000 with an Autoselecta guide price of £85,000 for a competitive bid and up to £95,000 for a strong bid.

What Makes The Honda NSX NC1 So Special

The second generation Honda NSX was never intended to be a simple successor to the original car.

When Honda engineers began developing the NC1, they set out to build the most technologically advanced driver’s car in the world. The result was a vehicle that challenged Ferrari, McLaren, Porsche and Audi by combining hybrid technology, supercar performance and everyday usability.

At the heart of the NSX sits a twin turbocharged 3.5 litre V6 paired with three electric motors. Combined system output exceeds 570 horsepower while Honda’s revolutionary Sport Hybrid SH AWD system continuously distributes power between all four wheels.

Unlike many high performance cars where electronic systems simply intervene when grip is lost, the NSX actively uses electric motors to improve handling, acceleration and cornering performance. The result is a supercar that feels remarkably intuitive regardless of driver experience.

The NC1 proved that hybrid technology could enhance driving enjoyment rather than diminish it and helped redefine expectations for modern performance cars.

How The Honda NSX NC1 Refined Everything The Original NSX Stood For

When the original NSX arrived in 1990 it completely changed the supercar world.

Honda demonstrated that a supercar could be reliable, comfortable, easy to drive and capable of competing with the best Europe had to offer. Ferrari engineers were forced to re-evaluate their own products after experiencing the original NSX.

The NC1 follows exactly the same philosophy.

It delivers genuine supercar performance while remaining comfortable enough for daily use. Visibility remains excellent, ergonomics are superb and reliability is significantly better than many competing exotic vehicles.

Where the original NSX introduced aluminium construction and Formula One inspired engineering, the NC1 introduces hybrid performance technology, torque vectoring all wheel drive and advanced driver focused electronics.

Both generations share the same goal. Making an incredibly fast car that owners genuinely want to drive every day.
