NSX owners should get a our of the factory free of charge if desired. We should be able to make an appt via the NSX concierge. Travel/food/lodging is on us, of course.

I fully agree..... It's not like they're sooo busy building cars...... But at this point there may be no cars being built to watch??

I saw this too when shopping for an NSX, even emailed them to ask if the $3,000 price tag for a factory tour was real. Crazy. Acura is showing they're not at the same level as the true exotic brands by screwing their owners with something as simple as a factory tour.

I've toured Ferrari 3 times courtesy of my Ferrari salesperson and Lamborghini once with a private tour as a "customer", all entirely free of charge. It's low class for Acura to charge for this. I take things like this into consideration as I consider NSX vs. Huracan. Little things like getting invited to cocktail parties when the CEO of Lamborghini is in town go a long way in building customer loyalty. Acura (or Honda) seem void of that.

That is too bad that they are not allowing NEW NSX Owner to tour the PMC. The NSX Club of Canada was given a tour of the PMC back in July 2017, it is an amazing facility.

Yeah, you would think with a new NSX purchase an invite would shortly follow.

They should take a cue from Malibu Boats. Over in that forum guys are ordering their new boats are always talking about the factory tours and even seeing their boat being made. It builds tremendous brand loyalty, makes you feel like part of the family.
