Trivia

• The car's in-game model is based on the racing modifications for NA2 generation NSX models.
  • Because of this, it suffers from an issue where the rear wheels could be seen thru the car's rear trunk due to the wheel polygons having lower Z-byte priority compared to the trunk; this issue was fixed in other NSX models in GT2, except on this car.
• In early builds of the game, the car was also available in white. The white version of the car also appears in some game artworks.
