HONDA NSX
Convinced that all 'proper' supercars come from Italy? Think again. The mid-engined NSX caused shockwaves when it was launched in 1990, and the Japanese firm had Ferrari's 328 firmly in its sights. Stunning looks were allied to cutting-edge electronics, making the NSX a technical tour-de-force and potent street car – and more than a match for Maranello's finest.
None other than Ayrton Senna was involved in fine-tuning the suspension, ensuring that the NSX goes as well as it looks. By today's standards, the naturally aspirated 3.0-litre engine isn't powerful enough to be considered a true supercar, but in its day the NSX was right up there.
The NSX can still be considered a bargain but, with prices on the march, the time to strike is most definitely now. Early cars represent the best value for money and are the most likely to increase in value – owing much to the charm of the pop-up headlights
