Chris Harris Invites NSX, 911 Turbo And R8 V10 Plus To Bad Weather Party

Top Gear presenter Chris Harris is a fan of the Honda NSX, going as far as to call it a "cut-price Porsche 918" during his first review of the car.

Having said that, there's always room for a good comparison test, and few cars are better suited to take on the NSX than the mighty Porsche 911 Turbo and the equally competent Audi R8 V10 Plus.

Right off the bat, Harris boasts about the NSX's excellent engine and handling characteristics, which shine through even in extreme conditions such as when it's pouring rain.

The R8 V10 Plus however has the best sounding engine of the lot, according to Harris, and is exceptional in pretty much every category, from balance to handling to acceleration.

As for the 911 Turbo, well, let's just say that it handled its business like a champ towards the end of the clip, when all three cars successfully got off the line well during the drag race (the previous two attempts failed due to the conditions). Also, this is the base Turbo, and not the Turbo S, and yet it seems the more powerful Audi never even stood a chance.

In the end, Harris didn't want to name an overall winner, but it sure sounds like he fancied the 911 most in terms of which felt like the most "complete supercar".
