If the price for this hits 150k+, there is no way I would get this in lieu of a used F430 or Gallardo.

If it has the interior of an Aston Martin with Honda's usual toys/gadgets it'll be worth the $150,000

Looks great. Front needs to be a little more aggressive though.

That was the first thing I thought, too. Not really feeling it, especially the stacked exhaust. No way they'll get $150 for it.

If you read the limited edition NSX book that's silver/black from 1990 it makes it very clear why the NSX was designed the way that it was. This new car is... nasty.

I think it looks great. The stacked exhaust isn't the best looking but the car's exterior is definitely

I'm sure in person it will look nice but too bad it's not the first prototype Honda did, the HSC.

Looks pretty nice but not for the price tag!!! This design looks like something priced in the $40-50k mark. Does not look exotic like the current NSX. I still rather have an Audi R8 for the same price if this model did come in production.

Looks kind of like this, not to de-grade the render of nsx, but there are design que taken from the accord coupe!

It looks more like a CL replacement than the NSX.

I think it looks pretty attractive but I'm not sure if I like it more than the previous NSX.

Atleast they haven't put the new Acura bionic bird nose, I mean grill, on it....yet.

it looks great as a car, sounds nice as well. but it doesn't look like an exotic. stacked exhaust reminds me of the is-f.

pretty damn sexy though

The NSX will remain a classic forever ... and this new shape really reminds me of the old prelude shape .... not impressed at all ... no way to shell out 150k for this beast ...
