    A pity, it looks more muscle car than supercar, can't see it having the impact of the last NSX.

    +1...looks more on the line of the new Skyline. Can't see it as much of a success really

    If you were to just show those pics without any hint of what it was, I'd be guessing that it was the new Hyundai Coupe, RWD V8. I'm disappointed to see that as the next NSX. Very disappointed.
    Looks like just another Jap coupe, like the Nissan GTR currently looks.

    Reminds me a bit of the Lexus LF-A.

    EDIT: In fact it might be another LF-A as the alloys are the same.

    Honda mentioned Aston Martin when they were talking about the styling of the new NSX in the past.

    It looks nothing like the GTR, which is deliberately very "Japanese".

    As quoted from the above link;
    New NSX is expected to get a 550 hp V10 engine.

    :eek:


    Is is just me or does it look kinda like a Hynudai Coupé from the front?

    Why are the alloys on the Lexus the same?

    EDIT. They were the same on the "S2000" mule too.

    new NSX lap time in traffic on the green hell: 7.37
    seems they are trying to break the time of a GT-R

    Interior picture and more pictures from the track here

    Wow, that's great news. The S2000 mule was doing it in around 8:20.

    They were trying to get it below the 7:30 to beat the GT-R, but then the GT-R V-spec did it in April in 7:25. I would say Honda are now looking to be quicker than the LF-A.

    It looks more like an RSX than an NSX... maybe it is!
