New NSX confirmed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
wait.... this subject sounds so familiar....
http://www.autocar.co.uk/News/NewsAr...llCars/259530/ New Honda NSX confirmed Honda's R&D chief Mibe Toshihiro has confirmed to Autocar that work is underway to produce a new sportscar in the mould of the iconic Honda NSX - and separate reports suggest it could be on sale as early as next year. Responding to comments made by Honda president Takanobu Ito about the new NSX, Toshihiro said that Honda was ready to start work on the next generation of its electric and hybrid vehicles, and suggested that a new sportscar would be evaluated as part of that project. See our drawing of the new NSX plus a pic of the original car "We are now at a point where we can consider the next generation of electric and hybrid vehicles," said Toshihiro while speaking at the Global Automotive Forum in Chengdu, China. "President Ito has already mentioned a new NSX, and we have looked at that in the R&D department. It would be an interesting project - electric or hybrid vehicles can be fun as well as economical. More than that I cannot say." Ito previously suggested that the new NSX would be a different vehicle to the original NSX, which weighed 1350kg and had 290bhp. Read our full road test of the original Honda NSX Reports have suggested that a concept car hinting at the new Honda NSX could be shown at next month's Tokyo motor show, with a production car being shown early in 2012, ahead sales beginning later next year. However, timescales for the project are said to be flexible, as Japan continues to recover from disruption following the earthquake earlier this year. Honda has also confirmed it will put its first full electric vehicle and a plug-in hybrid on sale in limited numbers in Japan, China and the US next year. For the full story on the next Honda NSX, including Honda president Ito's thoughts on the car and its possible powertrain, buy Autocar magazine or download the digital edition, available today. |
From all the rumors of what a new NSX could be, and the way Acura's/Honda's look now, I'd rather not see a new NSX next year

This car could be the turning point for Honda/Acura, look forward to it if it really gets into production.

Hopefully it looks a lot like Tony Stark's "Avengers" ride.

This is going to suck big hairy balls like the Insight and CR-Zzzzzz (old CRX to new CR-Z = old NSX to new NSX [if ever] ). I am not moved one bit... |
Yep, it's not going to happen.
|
Probably call it the NSZ. I agree with the above, I am scared to see what Honda would produce; everything lately has been touched by the UGLY stick.
The way Honda has been hitting home runs, if they aim for the NSX, perhaps they'll develop the 2nd gen. RSX Type S and should just call it that instead (ugly beak included). |
I am excited to see this new car go head to head against the GTR. If you saw the filming of the new iron man you saw what could be a concept for the new NSX. Its bad ass
|
So that's the 8th time we've been promised a new NSX. There should be punishment for not keeping promises.
