A couple months ago I set an auto-record wish list on my TiVo to grab anything with "NSX" in the title or description of any channel I get on DirecTV. In that time I've got a pair of recordings that I thought I'd share here for y'all to be on the lookout for.
The first was on History International, channel 271 on DTV. It's a show called "Voyages" and the title of the episode is "Automobiles: Honda NSX". The description of the episode is "Sochiro Honda introduces his Honda NSX in 1991."
This is kind of misleading. Of the 30 minute show, the first 25 minutes is about the history of Honda. Not that this is bad, it's actually quite good, but it leaves the NSX for the last 5 minutes of the show. Film from the production line and a recitation of some trivia and facts but nothing I didn't already know. Worth watching.
The second was on some channel called (or abbreviated) FINE on DTV channel 232. The name of the show is "Life in the Fast Lane with Steve Natt" and the title of the episode is "Exotic Motoring". The description for this episode is "Dodge Viper and Acura NSX: French Automobiles from the 1930's."
The first 10 minutes of this show was Steve Natt cruising around in a Viper and a late vintage NSX doing comparisons and asking the man on the street what they thought. I won't go into a lot of detail but the NSX compared favorably for reasons we'd all understand. Natt had some insight to why any certain person might favor a certain vehicle and it was actually insightful. Again, worth watching.
Anyway, I'll post again in this thread if more shows pop up. Add your own if you got 'em please.
