2002 NSX Spyshots confirmed

[netNSX]

Today while driving through Torrance I saw the new Blue 2002 NSX. My personal opinion is that it looks stunning with the fixed headlights and the new nose. I didnt really get a chance to check out the back because I was going in the opposite direction but it looked pretty similar to the current model. If I was in my NSX I would have chased it down and taken some pics.

If anyone wants to stake out the loc, it is in Torrance near Honda R&D.

So Kent, how does it drive?

Shouldn't it drive just like the 2001?

I didn't think there were supposed to be any changes to the drivetrain or suspension; are there?

I'm speculating... But maybe Honda might have changed the suspension just a little bit with the new size wheels? Were there any changes in suspension when the wheels went from the 15/16 to 16/17 configuration? (Besides rear alignment?)

No. And the rear alignment was not changed when the bigger wheels were introduced in '94; it was the same as the revised alignment which was introduced for '93 and recommended for '91-92. (I realize that the FAQ shows this as a change for '94 in the "Changes by Year" section, but that is an error.)

Engine info of new nsx can be seen on the Japanese Honda NSX site. It is Japanese, but the engine label clear states 3.2 L engine.

The Honda NSX site in Japan (and in Japanese) clearly shows an engine drawing with a 3.2 L label...thus not change in engine
