This looks pretty good, but i doubt we will ever see a new NSX produced.

i gave up on Acura long time ago. IF they were to get back on track and start being good competitive automakers again they would have a chance in my book. They should start with with this new NSX which should blow people away and build the rest of their line up after that...but that will probably take 10 years so....

NSX Prime is a fantastic forum. Great members. Seemingly not of the same cloth as the rest of them They are well aware. Here is their description of the 2nd gen NSX forum there

Second Generation NSX / HSC / Unicorn Discussion Any and all news, rumors and speculation about the 2nd generation NSX and other mythical creatures.
http://nsxprime.com/forum/showthread.php?t=144981


V-8 Acura smilie-

New NSX smilie

The funniest thing is watching the fanbois off themselves or going to other brands.

I told you all this TEN YEARS AGO. They are a complete joke.

So now instead of building one of the best cars and trying to be the best ala the first NSX, they are going to dumb it down just to say we have it. Brilliant.

I'm going to ignore future topics regarding "new" NSX because we always end up talking about the old one

Me and my coworkers are still in awe of how much work that guy put into the car. Looking at those interior electronics completely sourced from the RDX, that must have been a good amount of man hours to make it all fit and look good. That interior is nearly flawless! And those Carbon/Kevlar fender liners are too sick

Honda's lost its street cred years ago. Porsche already did the hybrid supercar in the new 911. Honda had a great concept NSX that Ferrari wound up building. So they are too late to the party.

Even their normal everyday cars are getting bad reviews like the Civic. I expect Hyundai to kick Honda while they are down and expect a revolutionry supercar from them before Honda, shame really.

I wonder if the internal codename for the new NSX is "Project Unicorn"
