NSX-R sold in US?

I was just watching the Montegi battle from Best Motoring and the NSX they drove was the NSX-R, in fact most of the Best Motoring vids I have seen have an NSX-R. Then I got to thinking Do they sell the NSX-R in the US? I know the NSX has 290 HP but how much does the NSX-R have?

I know it is simply an amazing vehicle, and that is why I ask? Is it sold here in the US? And what are the differences between the NSX-R and a regular NSX?

Well it isnt sold to U.S buyers but you could probly import it but in my case if I wanted to get it I probly could if I had the $. The nsx r comes with a little more hp and has a big weight difference then the reg. Its lighter and has a better racing suspension.

The engine is the exact same 3.2 v6 Vtec engine, tuned to give 10 more horsepower or so...the power difference does not really matter, what really matters is the weight difference, which is 350 lbs or so less than the 3150 lbs NSX, as well as the stiffer suspension, thiker bars...

NSX-R is a track ready car
NSX-R compare to the regular NSX
is like M3 CSL compare to M3 SMGII
or 360 Modena CS compare to a 360 Modena

Re: NSX-R sold in US?

talking about the BM video

look at gan san brutalness on his tranmission

every gear he only did half clutch, ouch
and at the end he just tap that clutch and just pull down the muthafuxking stick to upshift
and the downshift that he made, just made the car went overheated and messed up
