Next Acura NSX to launch soon?

Look out Ferrari! Work on the new Honda NSX is well advanced with a pair of stunning prototypes already testing in Japan, according to company insiders.

The old model featured a mid-engined layout, but engineers are testing this format and front-engined to ensure that the latest model is capable of challenging the Ferrari F430, Lamborghini Gallardo and forthcoming Lexus supercar.





Honda's technological tour de force will hit showrooms in 2009, and is intended to highlight its engineering prowess. Power is expected to come from a high-revving, normally aspirated 500bhp V10 engine, which will ensure the NSX offers storming performance.

Do doubt this will be able to be used as a daily driver, but where does it totally fail?

The looks department.

That rear-end, although only a concept, is absolutely terrible.

God that is ugly.

Acura's first NSX proved to the world that you CAN have a supercar for everyday driving. Since it's inception, Ferrari, Lambo and others have made great strides in making their cars the same way. If nothing else, this is great for those who can afford it.

This article failed to mention the "other" supercar coming out mid-2007, the Audi Le Mans (R8). Now THIS is something to get excited about :-)

I saw these pictures three years ago I believe or maybe even longer. It does have a stunning design and it could potentially compete with the Lambos, Ferraris and the other exotics out in the market.

With this V10 engine they will be in the race this time. Honda has finally thought of jumping out of their shell and create a monster like the HSC concept. Two thumbs up! Build it Honda!
