Drive Tribe's Jethro Bovingdon takes the NSX, which you could view it as a mini Porsche 918 Spyder, to a runway to test the NSX against the 2017 Nissan GT-R and a new Porsche 911 Turbo in a race from zero to 150 mph (241 km/h).

 

While the winner wasn't much of a surprise for us, one car did surprisingly well... Watch the video and see what we mean.

The new NSX is vastly overrated and massively overpriced. The GTR, at least, performed admirably given its weight.

To be fair, GTR did well, considering its weight and its price too! The Porsche Turbo and Honda NSX cost much more than Godzilla, more so in Singapore. 

 

And the 2017 GTR is basically still the same model with a bit of upgrades in the suspension, power and looks departments, since 2007. But during this 10-year period, Porsche has come out with at least 2 new Turbo models (if I'm not wrong) along the way and NSX is completely new.

 

Still, these 3 cars are good in their own ways.  [;)]

Honda NSX is targeting youth with high income disposable. The nxs is designed for sporty look and purposes. Honda has good supplies of aftermarket parts and service. Thus making it a good investment for the long run. However the resale is low compared to porsche, mercedez & bmw. <a href="http://www.anzael.com"> Anzael </a>

  • Is 'tiny living' really irrelevant in Singapore?

    I discussed the possibility of living in tiny houses in Singapore in an earlier blog post. But as we know, it isn't an option to begin with – no thanks, of course, to our lack of land space.  Someone also pointed out that the idea of tiny houses is "romanticised" – which, I don't deny (but hey, that's why it's a dream). While it's clear tiny houses aren't going to work out here, the concept of 'tiny living' is; not just physically but also mentally. Anyone who has lived enough years lo
