Please do not reply to me unless I directly address you. Thank you.

Back on topic, I'm hoping for a mid Fall release. In my mind it's already ahead of the GTR and R8 simply due to the looks department.

There is a shitty video clip on instagram of it idling. #acuransxontour

I'm gonna ask the guy whom is driving one of them to make some video clips. He keeps taking photos of it throughout the day but no videos.

Was about to post this, but I believe the car is actually $170k, and that it is most definitely not befitting of.
The exterior however, looks the part.

I do like the interior but damn they could have done so much better with the front end. All I think of is the TL every time I see that front end.

I said through my eyes, not brand-whore spectacles. The Jaguar F-Type and 911 GT3 are the only comparably good-looking sports cars under $150k.

I'll say the same thing Ive always said.

The new NSX looked very nice in person a couple years ago when it was a concept at the LA auto show.

BUT

The 1st/2nd gen NSX is just a timeless design. See a clean one today and it looks like a brand new car that rolled off the factory line. Its just a great, solid, classy ageless design.

This new gen NSX...its going to look dated in 3 years or less. It wont stand the test of time.

I think it is defintley better than the beak on my 10" SH-AWD TL...
But hey, at least it is toned down and sleek. (in my view)

As from my thread, I was present while they were at the American Honda Center.

1. They bay was not covered, it did have a tinted glass. You can easily see the motor etc. Sure, you can't see beyond the top, but it was not "covered", at least not at this location.

2. The cars were driven thru the City of Chicago, onto the highway, and into the suburbs to the location in Hoffman Estates, IL. No tow trucks or flat beds of any kind. I can see if my mom can get surveillance video of the NSX (s) driving down the road and into the lot. (her work is RIGHT next door)

3. I have heard and seen the NSX there on multiple occasions, except this time not cloaked on a tow truck going into one of the bays.

Here's a Earth view to support my claims.





Circled Area is The American Honda Center

I like the look, but the corporate dial for the multimedia was lifted from the ILX/TLX/RLX..... At the price point, I think something else to distinguish the interior would be nice.

But I do like the overall look. A bit like the Lexus, but not quite that strong.

couldn't agree more. we've basically known what the car would look like for the past 5-6 years it already feels dated to me. mine officially became 20 years old this year and you wouldn't believe how people are shocked when i say its a 95. they always assume its in the 2010 or so range.
