Here we go again...

Honda, MAN UP and build the new nsx already.

 

They need to keep the MR format.

 

They'd better actually build it this time. That thing looks badass!

 

prob another 2 years before the car comes out...

 

used to love honda... owned just about every cool car they made in 80's and early 90's.

now they are boring and bland and im sure the future nsx will be more of the same...

 

Its supposed to be a V8 I believe, or at least I think the class limits in GT500 limit it to that. It is front engined. The front wheels are placed well ahead of the engine though, so I am not hugely pissed about it.

As long as it revs better than the Toyota LFA, and has tremendous build quality.

EDIT
Just found the specs:
Engine name HR10EG
Liquid-cooled, NA, longitudinal 90° V8, Gear-driven DOHC 4 valves per cylinder, Dry Sump
Displacement (cm3) 3,397
Bore × stroke (mm) 93.0 × 62.5
Compression ratio (Not disclosed)
Maximum output (kW[PS]) 370 (500) or more
Maximum torque(N·m[kg·m]) 392 (40.0) or more
Tires(Front·Rear) 330/40R18 ·330/45R17


It also says steering wheel mounted paddle shifters attached to a constant mesh gearbox.

 

^ Bah! No front engine -_- ....sigh....
What source was that? Great info, thanks!

 

I wonder if they will sell this program to Ross Brawn.

Then it will be a success for sure!

 

Well after been basically shoved down the totem poll because of the buyout deal that happened w/ Benz, I would not be surprised! But who knows...

 

I got the info from this press release shown on Autoblog.com

Honda HSV-010 Press Release


It was posted in January of 2010. Which goes to show that this thing has been around for a while. I just want them to make the thing.


If they dont then I will be forced to save for a project car doing something unnatural to the NSX.
