Since when has the NSX had terrible brakes? They may not be the best out there, but they certainly aren't 'some of the worst brakes on a sportscar - ever."
From the last Road & Track test:
60mph-0 in 117ft
80mph-0 in 215ft
As compared to a F430
60mph-0 in 113ft
80mph-0 in 192ft
And the brand-new DB9:
60mph-0 in 133ft
80mph-0 in 231ft
Many sports-cars out there have brakes much worse than an NSX's. |
Yeah, try after 3, 10 however many stops you like - the NSX brakes catch fire quicker than a barbeque. They are terrible and I've yet to see worse since its release (of a true sportscar). I remember a comparison between a 993 4S and it beat the 4S in the first 2 stops and then after that the stops were so violently ill that the brakes did in fact catch on fire. This car is as exciting as a mullet. Uncool :roll:
