Yes Mr Murray owned at least one NSX, and used it as a benchmark for usability. With a bit more research the BMW could have been just as good.

I met Nick Mason and his wife recently, and mentioned to his wife that Gordon Murray used the Nsx as a starting point in creating the F1. What I didn't know until the day after was that Gordon Murray firstly considered Nick Mason's range of Ferraris etc as a base, and decided against them in favour of the Nsx, doh!

Heres more information on Wikidpedia under the larger font " Specifications " . Interesting read the F1, imagine if Honda did agree to build the engine instead!

One of the members here owns a car that Gordon Murray previously owned I think?
