I hope GM takes the NSX as a very serious warning. It doesn't matter how great your spec sheet looks. If the car is priced wrong and completely ignores all the reasons its predecessor was so highly regarded, it's doomed.

Gm needs no "warning" or anything else from Honda. The Corvette has been doing just fine for over 6 decades and 7 generations without any advice from Tokyo.

I just passed a silver NSX, the first I’ve ever actually seen on the road, and I live in a suburb with lots of Corvettes, Porsche’s, and was even a Lamborghini dealership. I thought the NSX looked “nice,” but you don’t spend almost $200k on “nice.”
The C8 should look and sound much more like a supercar and at way less than half as much.

GM unfortunately does not have ongoing government subsidization like the Asian car makers do and have had for decades. Extremely unfair advantage that many foreign manufacturers enjoy that also includes staggering tariffs on American goods. Finally we have a President with the ***** to turn the tables on these countries and stand up for Americans and their products. These bastards have it coming to them.

$20K off, that is only a 10% discount. For a car that is not selling I would have thought you could get more than that any day of the week.

When you look at the NSX now, it is still somewhat in keeping with the original ethos, Ferrari performance for less money.

I had one. Got it when Acura was offering 30k off plus dealer incentive to move them in 2017. If you look at the option list most of it was fluff. All carbon fiber cosmetic stuff which ballooned the car price to 200k. Dealers optioned these cars out thinking they would be a hot item. They didn’t count on the fact that no one wanted or asked for a 3800 pound hybrid that cost McLaren money. I paid 128k for mine. I enjoyed but certainly not worth 200k. Honda better take note if this comes out at 70k. I think it’s curtains for NSX.
