Simplify the front of the car and it'd be sooooo much nicer. Also heard that it's gonna be a gas-electric combination, gas engine powers the rear wheels and electric motors power the fronts during cornering or something. Dunno if it's true, just read somewhere.

Not a fan of the headlights, but I like it. As said though looks VERY similar to an r8.

It's a shame it's not taking after the original NSX with that nice exotic shape and mid-engine.

^it is mid-engine

but also AWD and a hybrid - could be a good thing, but it has almost nothing in common with the original(s), other than the placement of the engine

Theres no way the production is going to look like that... if it ever comes out.

I could be wrong, it is on the acura.ca website.

sure as hell isn't ugly. might not match up to the expectations people have for the original 90's nsx, but I'm fairly certain we'll all still have eyegasms when we catch one rolling by, despite what some of us think right now.

Sorry, I'll believe it when they actually show the production model.

There was the HSV concept that was "production ready". That went nowhere.
(except for Japan race tracks).

It's the car I'm most anticipating. I love how, um..... futureistic it looks.

Has some really sexy lines and I don't mind the beak.

Except that looks nothing like an NSX.

I personally love the new look, I'm usually pretty stern on changing a classic shape, but I think it's close enough.

Not too bad. However, the whole front clip of the car needs to change... or maybe it's just the Acura shield that's preventing me from liking it...
