Acura DN-X Concept '02

[STI9]

Its 749,273 in the UCD, is it worth the money, I've never seen one before ?

Not really. It doesn't do anything better than any of the dozen or so NSXs in the game. I'm pretty sure you win one for something as well.

You get it from licenses, so no don't waste your money.

The DN-X Concept is 4wd, whereas the NSX is rear wheel drive, so the DN Concept will have more traction in the lower gears when it's highly tuned and still on sports tyres, like mine.

It's a very good car, I found it handles very well, alot better than I expected and compared to other cars with the same power to weight ratio, on sports tyres, it could do a very good lap time.

There's two of the DN's (Dual note's - because it has two engines, one in the back and one in the front). One of these is called just the Dual Note, the other is the Dual Note Concept '02. One you win and the other you can only buy - I think, but check the thread for prize cars and this well tell you.

Using the qualifier of being better when you dump tons of money into it, there are also many many cars better than the DN-X. Stock, though, the DN-X doesn't do much better than the better NSX models.

No. It had a hybrid powertrain and one engine.

There are only two "variations" of the car: The DualNote and the DN-X. You win both of them. The DN-X for IC Bronze, the DualNote for Grand Valley 300KM in B-Spec.

You can buy better cars for the money.. Just try something else.

You said it doesn't do anything better than the nsx, well a highly tuned 4wd car will have better grip from a standing start than a rwd car, especially with sport tyres on, so that is something - not nothing. Like I said - ''lower gears'' (which I believe, is what you use when accelerating away from a standing start).

So hybrids don't have some kind of engine then?? Whether it's an engine, power source, power train whatever - it still the part of the car that propells it either forward or backwards, we're not talking about the seats or the stereo. As I said, the DN concept has two of these, one in the front and one in the back.

If you want to be pedantic, then fine, you win, but generally, there was nothing really that wrong with what I said.

I was generally describing the car, I wasn't trying to be specific, otherwise I would have copied or recited a load of technical information about the car and been alot more precise. Most people don't want that, most people I speak to just want a general opinion, which is what I gave.

Again, when using highly tuned as a qualifier. I specifically said stock, at which point the DualNote is about even with the better NSX models. And when the OP mentions that he is going to spend 750k to buy one, I imagine he wants a more definitive answer than "it is better off the line than an NSX when you have dumped tons of money into it." Which is why I said that it doesn't really do anything better than an NSX, because based on what the OP seems to be asking about it, it doesn't.

Engine is a misleading term, which is the only reason I made the clarification. It wasn't so I could be "right."
Yes, it has the electric motor the front and the normal engine in the back. That isn't necessarily the first thing that comes to mind when you say "two engines," though. It could mean something more like the Suzuki Cultus from GT2, ie. two separate gas engines in the vehicle.
