First let me start off with a "This is in no way to disrespect the accomplishments Zanardi had in a Honda."
The Zanardi NSX came out at a time when Honda was dominating the competition in CART with their products. Yes, Zanardi was a great CART champion who was very well liked by all the people who mattered at American Honda. Name a flagship car after him though?
What about the man who was "first" in our cars? Ayrton Senna? His accomplishments in Honda F1 were very impressive while he was with McLaren. I was pondering this question with my buddy (who is fortunate enough to own Senna MV Agusta number 173) the other day and thought it might be a good question for my friends on Prime.
I would love to hear different points of view as to why you feel Honda made a Zanardi edition instead of a Senna edition NSX?
