Acura yesterday announced the launch of a new Honda Heritage Parts program in the U.S., by offering reproduction parts for the first-generation Acura NSX exclusively through Acura dealerships nationwide beginning this summer.
“In this 40th anniversary year of the Acura brand, the launch of Honda Heritage Parts is especially meaningful, giving Acura enthusiasts the support they need to continue enjoying their first-generation Acura NSX,” said Steven Bailey, vice president of Honda and Acura Parts, Service and Technical Division. “At its core, the new Honda Heritage Parts program honors our shared passion for these iconic vehicles and helps ensure they can be enjoyed by future generations.”
Honda Heritage Parts
Honda Heritage Parts will include two categories: Genuine Honda Reproduction Parts and Honda Compatible Parts. This was made possible by the establishment of a new collaborative framework with parts suppliers, technological advancements, and adoption of new materials and manufacturing methods.
- Genuine Honda Reproduction Parts will be reproduced using the same materials and production methods that were used for the original parts.
- Honda Compatible Parts are newly redeveloped and reproduced to replace original parts no longer available for sale by Honda.
Parts for other Acura and Honda performance models are being evaluated. Additional details, including pricing and parts availability, will be released closer to launch.
Honda Heritage Works
Honda Heritage Works is a new global service business consisting of Honda Heritage Parts and Honda Restoration Service for customers who wish to preserve and continue driving classic Honda and Acura performance models. The service will reproduce discontinued genuine parts, including powertrain, interior, exterior, electrical and chassis parts. It will launch April 1, 2026, in Japan.
CARLIST THOUGHTS
The Honda Restoration Service will be offered exclusively in Japan for Japan-market first-generation NSX models and will utilize Honda Heritage Parts to restore customer vehicles. Formerly known as the NSX Refresh Plan, the service has restarted in Japan under the Heritage Works initiative.
