New NSX or Not?
Hey guys, I'm a bit new here, but I'm wondering; do you think they will make a new nsx? I'm just wondering, so that if I grow up to make a good amount of money, that would easily be the first car I buy. I wish they'd just update the 2005 style, maybe give it a turbo, facelift, LED's, 6 speed standard/dual clutch, I know they could do it, I just think that they lost hope in it, since it sold under 1000 (If sales # is right) in 2005/06 year. They just need to upgrade the power if anything, because for the price, it really should have had over 350-400 hp. I'm just asking if anyone knows if they are making a new nsx or not.

That is scheduled for mid January. So you don't have long to hear more about it. The car doesn't appear to be anything similar to what you are looking for though.
If you liked the NSX your best bet is to get one of those. They are getting a little less expensive as time goes on. Though, to be fair that probably will not last forever.
Some firms are even doing drivetrain swaps to be more similar to the GT500 cars that have been running around in some GT racing series.

This is definitely not where those red heads should be pointing towards!

The main reason for turning the engine 90º was not only a better weight balance but primarily to fit the transaxle sequential gearbox as was used in the NSXs that raced in Super GT.

Isn't that like the HSV or something like that? I'm not 100% sure or anything. Although it does look to be the nsx, but your right, id be better off just buying a used one, or maybe a kit car. I just really wish they went back to their roots and didn't use all that crappy design thing on their cars.

That design reminds me of the new mdx, that beak grill design is ugly, my mom has it lol. Imo, they should have made the nsx-r gt a normal production car, cuz that car was pure sexy, along with a 1997 Acura NSX. They could and should have left it in acura, and left honda out of it.

Acura RSX = Honda Integra
Acura Integra = Honda Integra
Look it up,

Ya, but they do use nicer materials, i've been in a leather crx and a leather rdx, the rdx was much nicer quality. But still, in most cases acura has the nicer car, let alone even when they are base models.

Acura now is still just under the umbrella of Honda. Like Lexus is under the umbrella of Toyota. All the money and design comes from the same place.
