Lol, be happy you are getting a DSG and not a 5 speed automatic from the 08 accord

I think the car could stand be a little more aggressive, like a sharper front bumper and a fixed rear wing...

Reminds me of the 03 gallardo, proper lines and greenhouse but adding a new front bumper + rear wing makes the new updated ones look properly menacing and makes the old models look properly shitty

Exclamation Detroit


Despite previously confirming that Acura would not unveil its production model NSX at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, a photo on the Internet is raising speculation that that might not be the case.

Back in October 2012, rumors brewed that the production NSX would make its official debut at this year’s Detroit Auto Show. When AutoGuide reached out to a Honda representative however, those claims were denied.

Instead, Acura announced it would debut a prototype for the next-generation MDX crossover.

The photo in question, however, comes from inside the closed doors of the show venue in the Motor City. It clearly shows a massive display prepared by Acura for the NSX – 1 that is certain to steal away some attention from the MDX concept.

if they were revealing anything worthwhile they would have teased/trumpeted/streamed it

The rumors floating around at Temple of VTEC are that they will be showing the interior of the car. Not as noteworthy as the actual engine specs, but still a big part of it.

The Acura stand had a nice brochure which shows an interior shot, if I have time after dinner I'll scan it and post. If it looks close to the rendering...I may have to reexamine my choice for waiting for the 991 turbo.

Sorry for the crappy quality, couldn't find the power cord to my ancient printer/scanner. This photo was in the official Acura media guide.

[IMG]<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/21583867@N04/8381190891/" title="photo-6 on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8517/8381190891_daaf1ddb20.jpg" width="500" height="367" alt="photo-6"></a>[/IMG]

All I can say is if the interior looks as sweet as this and the rumors of 500HP total and 0-60 in the low threes comes to fruition, color me very impressed.

That interior looks sweet, it's a mix of the old NSX and the LFA

If Acura can really pull off that interior, I'll be two things: 1) willing to eat crow for saying Acura has completely lost their way; and 2) pissed because they cut so many corners in everything else.

love that red, and all that stitched leather. BTW the NSX has always had a stitched leather interior, and this was way back in the 1990s!

ホンダNSXの追加画像が続々登場!
新世代の日本のスーパーカーがいよいよ初公開されます!

海外サイトでもここまでの画像は出ていないのでフェラーリランボルギーニニュース独占情報です ね






内装カッコイイですね日本車とは思えないくらいの出来だと思いますがどうでしょう?
恐らく1000万円以上するLFAに次ぐジャパニーズスーパーカーの登場にドキドキしますね

情報提供してくれた@yosuke_siatさんありがとうございました。

The only two things I don't like are the wheels (a few too many angles) and the two circular gauges on the instrument cluster (which I suspect will not be there for the production version) other than that H/A created a worthy successor to the 1G NSX.

Going for 50/50 weight distribution ?

The car's exterior looks real nice, all except the wheels.

Just wonder what the price will be ?

If you have to ask, you can't afford it

I know I'll never be able to

Hell I still can't afford a 2005 NSX, and maybe even a 1992-2002

I suspect that this is pretty close to what we'll see on the showroom floor.

I think it looks awesome!!

I'm glad that Honda didn't go the gaudy route with the new NSX.

Wow that's quite a lot of carbon fibre...even the wheels are carbon fibre, even though the design is a bit weird.

Nonetheless, this looks stunning!
