that looks nice, but they are right that Honda needs to clean up the rear end a little. Cant wait to see a price on that, or maybe I missed the price.

Rumor has it that the new NSX wont be coming out before 2006 (instead of 2005) cause the most of the europeans have ridiculous power figures that the NSX ("300+ HP) cant match. Honda engineers were reportedly "sent back to the drawing boards" in search of more power. I think I read it on vtec.net.

A feckin' V6?

Did those imbecile Honda engineers have a brain tumor for breakfast? When are they going to learn that V6 engines are inferior and inadequate?

Must've been designed by the same douchebag who put strut suspension on the current Civic platform.

Honda sucks.

It's funny they can make a K series that can bump out 200-300 whp NA with some boltons and internal upgrades, but are having a hard time finding enough power for the exotics.

I'm not crazy about it. It needs to be 20-30% smaller too. That thing is just too big.

Absoloubtly Completely Amazingly ALL THAT, A BAG OF CHIPS, and THE DIP!

I like the way the cotpit looks like its advancing towards the front of the car. Amazing design lines. I bet that thing GETS DOWN in the turns...

Overall

I agree. A V6 belongs in an accord, not a super car.

If they opt a V6, it better be to the tune of at least 350hp to compete with the crazy hp cars of today. I dont know why they go for something more desirable like a 4 liter v8.

Er....the NSX-R with the "oh-fecking-V6" still puts out mid 12 sec 1/4 mile performance. USDM NSX have low-13 sec performance. You all forgot about how light NSX is? Not to mention, this new HSC is even lighter.

Remember, this is a high-revving variable timed V6, not your everyday low-torque V6. What form of power plant does not matter, but the statistic of its performance. If it breaks 11 sec running a NA V6, it's a supercar in my book.
