    3rd gen NSX?

    Run was conducted in 2016 This design has been simmering in the oven for over 6 years now. The police sirens are comical. They are there because the unit is really quiet. It will make a much cooler noise for production. You won't be pulling people over on the streets :) <iframe...

    3rd gen NSX?

    The supercar on the right has green halo on the wheels, which I speculate that to mean 4wd electric motors. If you recall, NC1 had a 4WD variant running around Pikes Peak. That unit had a crazy 1050 hp. I find it hard to believe Honda will release that high hp unit for production. But why...

    Type-S Announced

    1999. Honda had a tough time selling all 49 Zanardi editions. Some dealers went into year 2000 to sell them.

    Refreshed NSX?

    Since this was taken down, we now know this is the real deal. Does anyone else think the rear end now looks rather busy with too many conflicting lines and surfaces? Perhaps more functional at the expense of beauty. BTW, What kind of license plate is that? Can't tell the state nor the country...

    Refreshed NSX?

    I gathered the type R variant or the refresh got put on pause at one point as they regrouped to finalize direction for next generation, refresh, and a performance variant. With sales volume so low and sales being much lower than expected in Japan, they took some time to figure out next steps...

    Refreshed NSX?

    I saw this when it first came out. The problem is we keep getting pics from same angle. You figure the person who took this picture would take one in the front and the interior, even if it was covered up

    Is the Base NC1 Really the Type-S?

    Budget was quite limited to begin with unlike Gen 1 which had much less restrictions with project driven by Soichiro. With the switch to longitudal engine and twin turbo, they blew the budget and were counting on succes of the program before offering more options. They soon realized with low...

    Is the Base NC1 Really the Type-S?

    I think they ran out of development money so options were limited. They were to come out with customization options almost like Porsche menu. It hasn't happened and we are in year 5 of NC1 so I'm certain the budget got cut due to low sales. Building PMC sedans and SUVs is partially a life...
