Sorry if it's a repost but I didn't see it when I checked.


Can't wait to see what the real one looks like.

Wow! Bold claims from Honda. Can't wait to see a show down. Since it's an Acura, I expect this car to be a lil more expensive than the GT-R.

I need to see one in person, under that wrapper it looks like shit to me. I'm not a fan of the shape so far at all.

As far as being faster than the gtr...I hope so. That would be interesting, but I'm not sure if that will happen. That will take a lot of vtec

I'm sure Acura is aiming higher than just the GT-R.

looks more like a glorified 350z/g35 to me than an nsx

I can't wait until they name this fucking thing so they'll stop using "NSX."

Also, if Honda aims to shit all over the GTR, they'll shit all over the GTR. That's just how it works.

+1

Or any other car/motor if they feel like it. But then everyone would complain about the price so what are you gonna do?

it won't be faster, for the GTR price range... the v10 automatically knocks it out of that. i didn't read this guy's link because i've read far too many of them about this fugly thing. i for one think you can't call it an NSX if it isn't mid engine. besides, it doesn't take much to beat this http://www.nagtroc.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=25361

hell, even the old nsx had around the same MSRP as the new GTR

Can't agree more. NSX v2.0 old school haha Love how the white magnets on it plays with your eyes, reminds me of a show I watched about how its suppose to trick your depth perception and throw you off.
