It turns out that Top Gear’s Jeremy Clarkson, one of my favorite people on Earth, actually plays Gran Turismo (the best driving simulator on Earth,) and actually likes the Honda/Acura NSX (by far the greatest automobile ever driven on this Earth.) 

So essentially, unless you’re an extra-terrestrial, this is about as good as things get.

In the video, he’s shown driving a standard (non-Type-R) NSX around Leguna Seca in Gran Turismo 4.  After setting a lap time, he proceeds to travel to the actual track in California, and shows us what the situation (real car included,) would be like in real life.

The fact that he too loves the angelic grinding noise that the NSX’s V6 makes at 7000 rpm, and that he plays a game that has been one of my great loves made my week.
