#WanganCarChallenge

Hi there! It’s me, Honda! Back again fashionably late to every hashtag and challenge on CT! However, this time I actually try to do something!

Anyway, MR2Maniacs recent “Wangan Car Challenge” had me 110% hooked after learning so much from reading post after post from the Wangan Car god Debodeep.

The Ca-

1997 HONDA NSX TYPE S ZERO. Sorry, I couldn’t help myself.

Along with the ‘97 changes to the NSX, the Type S had a MOMO Steering wheel, Recaro bucket seats, a titanium shift knob, BBS Aluminium wheels, and Stiffer suspension. The Type S-Zero was on a diet, stripping out 110 lbs of stuff. A lot of stuff.
