==In-game description==
This description is taken from the original Gran Turismo:
When Acura came out with a new 3.2 liter engine and 6-speed manual transmission in 1997, the sports model Type S was added to the line-up. Also, Type S Zero, with enhanced sportiness and more emphasis on circuit driving, was added. The Type S had managed to remove approximatelyShortened to "approx" in the game. 45 kg from the standard NSX, but the Type S Zero went even further, stripping away a staggering 96 kg. With these changes, the NSX became an easier car to turn compared to previous incarnations, especially with the Type S Zero. The suspension was given added rigidity at the rear and slightly softened at the front, resulting in secure communication between car and road surface, and a more neutral handling. These alterations changed the car's looks far more radically than the previous generation had done, and resulted in a car that requires a certain amount of skillful driving. Genuine sports cars choose their own drivers.

==Trivia==
*Acura did actually offer the NSX Type S in the US market as the Acura NSX Zanardi Edition, a limited edition NSX model made in honor of CART driver Alex Zanardi (then driving for the Honda-powered Chip Ganassi Racing), available only in Formula Red with black BBS rims. The Type S and Zanardi are almost the same, the main difference being that the Zanardi Edition uses leather seats instead of Type S' full bucket seats, resulting in slight weight increase compared to Type S. This Zanardi Edition was alluded in the description for Acura NSX '97 in GT2.
