I like it. The interior could have gone farther, reminds me of the C4 instrument panel. But this is a significant jump forward for the car, the car that made me a car enthusiast when I was a kid.
As sports cars continue to try to eke out every last once of performance, low slung, front engine, two seaters will continue to look closer and closer to each other. Aerodynamics shapes today's performance cars, and unfortunately body shape similarity will be a result of it. It will become more difficult to find something that looks like this:

Initial C7 renderings were are big turnoff for me......
I am pleasantly surprised with the new car.
Go USA!

sharp car. not similar enough to the stingray to deserve that name though
Man, I dunno. I'm not too excited with the exterior or interior. To me, it looks over-styled. It doesn't flow and has complicated sight lines. Maybe b/c it's w/o complemeting aesthetic features. The performance will be there though and I guess that's really what matters. Maybe it'll look better in person.
The interior is a leap forward though even w/ a few retro touches.
EDIT: the above pic in front 3/4 view looks much better.

Really? Because the stingray on the left was kind of a POS. LOL
Let me simplify my graphic just for TURBO2GO
Sharp looking fruit, but not similar enough to the apple to to be called an apple, looks more like an orange.
I hate to say this, but Acura needs a redesign of NSX 2.0 asap!
I also don't see why they called it stingray. I really hate these shallow marketing teams who ride the coat tails of earned reputations with their cheap buzz words.
I still like the NSX 2.0 design.
Though, I thought the C7 would have incorporated flying buttresses like the Ferrari 599

You know you could have used two girls instead...
Can't argue with a good idea.
Hot looking chick, but not similar enough to the brunette to to be called an brunette, looks more like an blonde.

I don't see how an opinion different from yours makes me a hater?

Considering what the first Corvette Stingray looked like, there is enough family resemblance to say there is lineage. But yeah, they don't look the same. And I am ok with that.
Comparing that silver '63 fastback coupe to that 165 HP '72 is like comparing a Tag Huer to an Armitron. They never should have used the stingray name past 1969. Let's hope Honda doesn't ruin "NSX".
I want that splt window coupe... Wow is that thing cool. I do see a lot more resemblance from the new one to that than the red coke bottle one.

C7 vs. New Viper

Is that a hood vent or cowl induction. I wish they would have made up their mind here. If that's the faux hood exhaust vent i'll be very disappointed. There's enough Hyundai Genesis coupes with fake hood vents running around.

on second thought.. this looks functional!

The stock market isn't very excited about the C7 evidently lol
