There are only two different types of Acura NSX, the first generation (1990 – 2005) and the second generation (2016 – present).

The first Acura NSX ever made which has been an icon in the motoring world was produced in 1990 based on a 3.0L V6 and featuring VTEC. Later on, in the first generation featured a slightly larger 3.2L V6 and came with the option to fit an automatic gearbox. It continued to be in production until 2005 and still remains one of the most sought after JDM cars in the UK.

In the United Kingdom, the first-generation NSX will only require an MOT unless it has been dramatically modified.

After the first generation was deprecated the new Acura NSX was upgraded with a 3.5L twin-turbo V6 and it remains to this day to be an incredibly rare and exquisite car. You’ll require an IVA alongside an MOT to register the second-generation Acura NSX.

We understand the rarity of the Acura NSX and take the utmost care to ensure that at every stage of the import process your car is handled with diligence.
