Overview
2005 Honda NSX-R GT appears on the official Forza Horizon 6 car list as a A Class (sharp performance) entry in the base roster. This page covers how it tends to drive in its class, where it fits inside the Japan setting, how to think about a starting tune, and which roster entries it naturally compares against.
Background and Forza Horizon 6 context
The NSX-R GT was a homologation special built so that the NSX-R could be raced in Japan's Super GT championship, with a longer-nose body, larger air intakes and a top-mount rear wing. Only five road cars were built in 2005 and each commanded over $500,000 at launch, making it the rarest NSX variant ever sold. On the official Forza Horizon 6 car list this 2005 Honda entry sits in the A Class (sharp performance) bracket inside the base roster, which is the placement players come to this page expecting to confirm against the public source. Inside the same A Class (sharp performance) bracket, the closest comparison roster entries for players are 2007 Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione and 2014 Alfa Romeo 4C, which is the A Class (sharp performance) peer group this car is usually weighed against. The JDM tag fits the wider Japanese setting of Forza Horizon 6, where this make tends to be a focal point of cruise lobbies and theme nights.
Driving feel in Forza Horizon 6
NSX-R GT was the Super GT500 homologation special — five road cars built so Honda could enter the wider-body GT500 racing NSX. The chassis is essentially a road-legal Super GT car. In A-class events on Japan's mountain routes the GT bodywork and chassis stiffness make it the most extreme road NSX ever sold; values now exceed Ferrari 458 Speciale levels.
Where it shines
A class is the sweet-spot bracket for many Horizon road events, especially mid-length point-to-points and Street race playlists.
Tuning starting point
A class rewards smarter aero and gearing. Test whether a top-speed gear or a corner-exit gear suits the events you actually run.
How to get 2005 Honda NSX-R GT
This car is listed without an add-on label on the official Forza Horizon 6 source, so we treat it as part of the base roster. Forza Horizon 6 launches on May 19, 2026, and before that date the public Autoshow may not surface every base-roster car yet — players asking 'how do I get this car, it is not in the Autoshow?' on Reddit or the Forza forums usually find the answer is 'wait for launch day or a post-launch update'. After launch, base-roster cars are normally available through credits in the Autoshow, Wheelspins, Festival Playlist rewards, or the in-game showcase that introduces new vehicles.
