Amen to that. I also dont find the 'new' nsx an attractive car either. If I were to choose between the GTR and NSX I would pick an old NSX

Then you obviously have a good taste in motors! (I'll forget your a Ferrari supporter for now ) So do you know if the new NSX going to be based on that odd looking concept car??!

FERRARI SUPPORTER???!!!! I NEVER WAS OR WILL BE A FERRARI SUPPORTER!!!

Anywho, no I dont know if the new NSX will be based on the new ugly concept. If it is, you might wanna take away its dignity as well.

Man thats harsh!

That is. That makes absolutely no sense to have a feature on a car, that if you use it, you'll void the warranty. I think Nissan are just over-hyping their own car.


Also, after doing more reseach, I found this.

Honda is pulling out all the stops for its replacement for the Acura NSX supercar, confirming it will be powered by a new V10 engine and boasting that it will be faster than Nissan’s GT-R. Expected to be sold exclusively under the Acura brand, the new model is scheduled to arrive in 2010 for the 2011 model year and availability is expected to be scarce.

Acura is determined that its new NSX is will be truly “extreme” and that its image must be one of high-performance and luxury. Integral in this approach is the NSX's V10 engine, which some Acura staff questioned as being unnecessary, the company’s executive vice president Koichi Kondo revealed during a recent interview with Automotive News.

Kondo also told reporters that the car will be priced higher than the Nissan GT-R but it will have better performance. The new NSX will also be a low volume model, with expected sales of just 1,000 units a year in the U.S. market.

In an earlier interview, Honda was adamant that the NSX would not be sold as anything but an Acura in order to prevent diluting the car’s high-performance, luxury image. This includes the U.S., Canada, Hong Kong, Mexico, China and soon, Russia, however leaves out other major markets such as Australia, the UK, and most other European countries.

I seem to remember that the older Aston Martins couldn't do a full bore 0-60 without blowing the clutch. They did cover it under the warranty, but said it was not recommended!

On the NSX front I'm both elated and bitterly disappointed. I've always loved the NSX but to brand it under acura and leave out half of the global market is a shot in their own foot!

Go Honda!

Seems the 2010 Subaru STi has set a new 'Saloon' lap record! If this is true I'm amazed simply because it was such a 'sloppy' lap, discuss;

I can believe that lap time is possible but as the article says; it's not exactly the production version with a bigger turbo and brakes system. Shame that they aren't going to release a decent STi version in the UK.. Still love the older Subaru Impreza that Colin McRae won his world title in!!!

I bet there are saloons out there that could beat it if they tried.
