Wow, these pictures are so high-res.

Almost all the cars look absolutely amazing. But what car is the red/orange "G" concept car? I have never heard of that brand

Wow Superb pics!

Call me crazy but I really like the Kia Soul 2 door thing. Nice!

And Honda fanboils have been utterly quiet that the Acura NSX is a Honda NSX in Europe That is what happens when you are not a global brand and clearly didn't get the memo on branding the first time around

man, you'll do anything to slam honda/acura, when of course Toyota did the same thing (Toyota Celsior, Soarer, etc.) just let it go.

And you'll do anything to defend it? Its 2012 not 1992 and they are puling the same tricks which do not work for them. My apologies if that is somehow offensive.

Its a Geneva thread, the Honda NSX debuted in Geneva. I find it hilarious how the media isn't covering this and its being swept under the rug. If Lexus debuted the Toyota LFA 2 years ago or the Toyota LF-LC all hell would have broken loose.

not defending them, it's laughable, ok sad, how long hondacura has been talking about stuff and not delivering. as for calling the new nsx a honda, maybe the acura brand is non-existent in europe, or maybe they decided honda need a halo/image boost, i don't know, so maybe it makes sense to call it a honda. of course toyota has much more resources (esp. money) and has stuck it out in europe with lexus, and good for them, but that doesn't mean all companies can or should do the same.

Its 2012 not 1992 and they are puling the same tricks which do not work for them.
believe lexus brand only debuted in japan in 2005.

My apologies if that is somehow offensive.
not offended, thanks.
