The Spies spot the next generation of this popular Acura

Dear 001,

Here's the new Acura NSX




Translation from my Japanese source:

Although the development team of the previous NSX have met and brokenup numerius times, It seems that this time they have official go to start to a new NSX project.

The Theme of this new NSX project is: "Compactification".

Although there is a lot of hope of a new multi cylinder engine, the present thinking is to continue the V6 design, but also to start fresh and redesign a whole new engine.
The Engine is said to be a 3600 cc engine.

Another topic that is being discussed along with down sizing the body is the horizontal mounting of the engine.

Looking forward to seeing it.

Best regards,

Andy Lee

that is a very lightly photoshopped cadillac cien. they didn't even change the wheels. nice. but it does sound like acura will not use the hsc design for the next nsx as originally planned--back to the drawing board.

Who is your source? You guys are always so quick to pat yourselves on the back, now you just put you foot in your mouth. Any so called "car expert" can see that photo is a photoshop Caddy! What is your next scoop, Honda buys GM?
