    Meeyatch1 + NSX unveiling in Detroit = AWESOME!!

    Yeah, low-light is good, and I'm sure they will use the same system in the new NSX. It would be great if they used the side + front cameras too.... the top-down 360' view is really helpful when parking or maneuvering in tight spots. I notice that the steering wheel in the new NSX looks...

    Meeyatch1 + NSX unveiling in Detroit = AWESOME!!

    Which year MDX are you looking at, and what are you comparing it against? I really like the camera on my 2015 MDX.. particularly with the 360' view using the perspective corrected front+side cameras. Low light/night-time viewing is also substantially better than the older MDX camera's...

    TOP Gear's Thoughts

    Well even the first year R35's were doing 3.0s 0-60, so I'm assuming that was the benchmark. They probably added P85D as an afterthought.. since the original was more like 3.7s and is not comparable to an R35.

    TOP Gear's Thoughts

    I thought this was interesting: "There is also a launch function that gives the NSX ‘zero delay' performance from rest. This is said to be bordering on frightening, according to one spokesperson. The benchmarks were the Tesla Model S and the Nissan GT-R. The new NSX beats both of those...

    Meeyatch1 + NSX unveiling in Detroit = AWESOME!!

    I'm putting in my deposit... I've got two dealers I'm working with but it looks highly unlikely that there will be any availability here in Canada in 2015. I'd love to take delivery in spring 2016, but I'm not sure if that's going to be possible. I wish they would just take my damn money...

    Meeyatch1 + NSX unveiling in Detroit = AWESOME!!

    I like it. I don't know why anyone is surprised by the ~$155k price point.... since they already said they're competing against the R8-V10. Rear's are 285.. .anyone catch the front size?

    Best guess on MSRP of the new NSX - Winner gets.....

    $145k USD for base model.

    What is APPLE planning?

    The issue is that it's using DP1.2 and you cannot drive a 5120x2880 display over a single HBR2 cable -- it's beyond the bandwidth spec.

    Audi quote on future manual transmission offering

    Yes, but they're moving to a new platform next year which is when it's expected that the only option will be the S-Tronic. Manual made a lot of sense with the older R8's that had the R-Tronic because it was such a terrible transmission. The new S-Tronic has had rave reviews … but also adds a...

    Jalopnik Article 10/7

    I think it's all relative. My point was that if money were no object, a sport car buyer would not be looking at an R8 or NSX.. they'd most likely be looking at an Aventador, 458, 650S... or if they were really rich, Pagani or Bugatti. Maybe it's just me, but I'm looking at the NSX or R8...

    Jalopnik Article 10/7

    1) There was not enough of an improvement in the 97+'s to justify the price tag IMO. There were other good options on the table and Honda did not do enough. It was a breakthrough in 1991... and then they sat on their asses. 2) They're not targeting the 458 buyers .. they're targeting the R8...

    Jalopnik Article 10/7

    Not surprising. Timing is interesting because it will coincide with production release of Audi's new R8 based on the Huracan platform. I expect the base V10 (non-plus) will probably be around 560hp, and the plus around 585hp. Chip it and unleash the full 605hp. I'm assuming Honda is...

    video walls / LED BOARD SIGNS

    You're probably already aware, but the quote you have is for two 2x2 walls, and not a 3x3 wall as in the picture. I can't believe the premium on those displays!
