well if they make the replacment front-engined and AWD, then at least when I buy myself a used NSX, it's still going to be unique!

7:26.4 for the ZR-1, I wonder who will be the first one to say, "hey don't forget about the GT-R V-spec!" or something like that...haha

Moog-Type-S 06-27-2008 05:50 PM

ZR1 :toocool:

TypeSAddict 06-27-2008 05:54 PM

3 seconds over a gtr?! wow.

swift22 06-27-2008 07:36 PM

wait i thought the LS7 was a 7.0L or 427?? so wouldn't that be in the Zr1 with a supercharger or am i mistaken?

Why post this in an NSX thread anyways ?

Should have been posted in the Vette thread (someone already beat you too it).

Because this supercar is set to beat that time now, hence that car.duh

Black Tire 06-29-2008 04:56 PM

sounds like a Ferrari!

titan 06-29-2008 10:00 PM

I hope it doesn't turn out looking like that... not feelin' the CGI.

is300eater 06-29-2008 10:53 PM

there's not enough angles and corners

Mokos23 06-29-2008 11:07 PM

it's still too early to put judgement on the shape of the car

I am not liking it so far... style-wise.. it looks pretty bloated.

and.. the front end = fail.

truaznballa25 07-05-2008 06:13 PM

im loving the front in the first picture..... the second one is kinda ehhhh

dont like the back either way

is300eater 07-05-2008 06:14 PM

whatever happened to just having regular quad exhausts? Why must all these new cars coming out have stacked ones? (Even the Ferrari California has stacked exhausts)

srika 07-05-2008 06:19 PM

yeah .. stacked exhausts = fail. they are a fad.

pretty disappointing that Ferrari jumped on board.. :whyme:

then there's the Lexus LF-A (or whatever it's call)... with the tri-shaped exhausts in the middle

Xpditor 07-05-2008 08:04 PM

Chunky. Choppy. Disorganized.

And they should the shoot the guy that came up with that corporate overbite, buck-toothed grille.

The Dougler 07-05-2008 09:16 PM

I dig it.

gocubsgo55 07-05-2008 09:52 PM

Love the shape, dislike the trim.

srika 07-05-2008 09:55 PM

the side profile reminds of MKIV Supra.. another car which is quite bloated looking..

Moog-Type-S 07-05-2008 10:00 PM

meh

MarbleGT 07-05-2008 10:03 PM

It just looks like a normal car.

Who'd thought Acura would do somthing boring......

The 1st gen NSX STILL looks like nothing else on the road. Case and Point.

Xpditor 07-05-2008 10:14 PM

They still bring big bucks, too.

AsianRage 07-06-2008 02:46 AM

I like the drawings. They need a better artist though. So I'll wait for the official drawings from Honda.

We've been waiting for years already !!

biker 07-06-2008 09:16 AM

Someone has too much time on their hands - why go the trouble of putting the license plate upside down? :toocool:

MaximaPower 07-06-2008 10:57 AM

love the overall shape of the car...kinda aston martinish

side looks good

front needs a lil work...that big mouth in the front needs to be smaller..headlgihts can be a lil bigger

rear has too many creases around the license plate area...those need to be smoothed out...not liking the tailights much.....the middle part of the tailight light can go...stack exhaust FTL

excuse the crappy shop..did it on paint on my laptop

not gonna lie...i think i like this cars look

fsttyms1 07-06-2008 07:42 PM

Ill wait for the originals from Honda but im liking it so far.

csmeance 07-10-2008 01:31 PM

Just to inform, these pictures that were on the last page were taken down by TOV due to brenda priddy and her team complaining it would take a cut out of her busniess, this is the only set left on the web....

I have saved a copy :ninja:
