The FT-1 looks really good but i wonder when they're gonna actually sell it.

Yeah it's like the GT86 and how many times it was pushed back...

hm.

Done.

is this going to be more BMW or Toyota?
the 86 is more Subaru than it is Toyota
let's hope it's not built in North America

glad it's finally coming after dozens of fan-rendering (the above is one)...16 freaking years!

What I find annoying about the Japanese manufacturers and their sports cars is how much they hype them (or how much the media hypes them) and how involved they are with drawing attention.

I didn't find the release of the NSX the least bit exciting because of how many times we've heard about the car coming out and how we already expected it.

I was FAR more excited about the surprise introduction of the new Ford GT than the NSX during the auto show.

I think it's the same as the Supra..I'm just not excited for it even if we are approaching the pre-production stage because of how much it's been covered and hyped...

Lol NSX hype was so tiring. It lasted so long that after several years I stopped caring.

been a while since new pics but... I'm worried

Has the NSX been released yet?
I know Jay Leno bought one, then nothing......

yeah that pic has been floating around but I doubt it. Just look at wheels, brakes and wheel gap. There's no flying fucking way that's the new Supra.

After all the buzz...I don't think Toyota would be dumb enough to do that, especially when NSX and GT-R are there to compete.

I think those pics might be new 86 or Celica?

the new NSX sales are hurting
they moved only 200 units in the first 6 months

Does anyone own one/know anyone who owns one? What made you pick it over the competition? I mean we're talking about R8/AMG GT/911T/i8....even the aging GT-R.

^ I want to say to be unique?

I cant imagine anyone who will buy it as their first supercar.... I mean unless you are like a die-hard honda fan or smth....

like it pains me to say, because I love, and love the LFA, but if my garage only allowed me to have one supercar, I would've gotten a Ferrari... because.. ya, now if I already have a Ferrari/Mclaren.. then yea, I will totally pick up a LFA and DD the shit out of that thing...

I imagine the people who got the NSX probably already have like a ferrari, lambo and what not... so they pick this up as a DD or smth.... I personally know someone who owns a 458 and bought a R35 just because it is not worth putting miles on the 458 constantly

That supra rendering is pretty tame. Still handsome though.

looks like some cheap mazda :heckno:

Are you saying Toyota re-badged Mazda's aren't hot looking? Just look at this work of art!

took a look (not to buy lol) at one at the Acura dealer a month ago. It was elegant and sharp but not overly imposing.

Its in a weird segment. It probably isn't going to take sales away from a 911T or GT3 as I think Porsche buyers are probably only looking at Porsches. It doesn't have the name to take sales from Aston Martin. It isnt a Super car so it isnt going to compete with McLaren, Ferrari and Lambo. So its market is basically someone whos looking at an R8. But compared to the R8 you get a hell of alot of tech and a way more advanced car.

Its a great car, just not sure whos going to buy it. $200-$225k. FWIW The one in Kelowna is sold.

mfw used R8 are still 6-figures
they've been 50-60k USD stateside for a while now.

The previous gen NSX was $142,000 in Canada. ($88,845 US)

The NSX was NEVER a popular seller.

People called it a poor man's Ferrari, Ferrari knock off, Ferrari wannabe, over priced Honda, and you would often hear "only 290hp for $142k, are you kidding me?" blah blah blah ...

NSX was a very niche car and only very few people understood the history behind it and what it's worth.
It was also substantially more than Dodge Viper GTS and Porsche 911, a lot of people couldn't understand why Honda would ever worth that much.

Gordon Murray said that if he was to give McLaren F1 10/10, he would give NSX 7/10, and Ferrari and Lamborghini are only 2/10 or 3/10.

some stuff has surfaced... usual disclaimer about this stuff applies:

Toyota Supra Specs Leaked, Pegged to Get 335 Horsepower - The Drive

So 20 years on and it's basically the same spec. That's a little underwhelming.

Whyyyyyyy... BMW turbo straight 6???? Hello BMW 335 and all of its vast history of issues. Not who I want building my engines.

HPFP Failures :sweetjesus:

Wonder how long before some one puts in a 2jz?

6 hours

lol
