The long version

For most of its life this was just a used sports car; values sat flat to declining through the 2000s while owners drove them like the Hondas they mechanically are, oil changes and all. Collector attention arrived over a decade late, roughly doubling values since 2016, and it has caught a chunk of the fleet mid-ownership rather than at the point of sale, so plenty of NSXs are still being driven by people who bought them before anyone called it an investment. F1 DNA nods to Senna's chassis input, but the real story is a supercar that spent twenty years failing to act like one.
