i understand why someone wouldnt like traction controll, or power steering, etc... but variable timing? fuel injection? c'mon now. but you are right, to each his own. i see how it would be more fun to drive a car without traction control, thank god there are switches for those days when you need a little spark in your life

i dont think the front flows with the rear, the hatch looks... weird. the front i like though. its the rear that needs some taking care of.

the photographer said the lines and everything looked better in person. he said it looks a bit bigger than the previous nsx but he said that could be just because of the doors. i like it but i think it will take a while for it to grow on me.

i don't know, the look of it is still quite oragami-like and bizarre.

I just love it, I don't know why, either. The front seems to kind of resemble a Modena. Anybody else see that? I also see a little bit of an Enzo look to it. I absolutely love the tail lights, too.

it still has severe angles, and it's rip-off ferrari look doesn't suit it. The original NSX was great because it was a first rate supercar done the japanese car. No one ever complained that NSX was ugly, or even at all. A good windy V8 would have been nice. A good little refresh, with a bit of the new theme would be nice, but that concept seems too far for me. Maybe you are right, it is better in person.

also it is projected to have well over 300 hp. rumors are that it will be in the 360 range, but i dont know how they are going to do that with an na v6. they have to have some sort of trick up their sleeve...

honda's new 3.5L/3.8L DOHC V6 has plenty of displacement for honda's magic to work with. They could easily get over 350 from that, and it isn't that heavy. I've always liked NSX, i'm hoping they can get some decent horsepower.
