Cutaway Shows The True Nuts And Bolts Of Acura's New NSX

My god, even with their supercar they cannot get rid of the hideous beak!

The rest of it looks like a cross between a Jag XF and a little mini C hatchback Mercedes.

All that time and once again Honda fails.

When will Acura finally design an attractive car? Supercars are supposed to be sexy (Ferrari or Aston Martin) or brutal (Lamborghinis, GT-R) looking. This just looks odd, especially with that corporate beak.

that car is hot I think this is the only other one I could get past the beak besides the MDX. I think this car will be a very tough competitor (bone stock) w/o modifications. put me down for one!!!!

Acura has about 8 months to study the 370z and hopefully they'll reverser course and retool to make the exterior of the NSX a truly desirable shape.

Looking at it more now, it actually looks like a group of Woodpeckers got together and redid the 6-series.

5.5-litre V10 delivering 560bhp and more advanced and powerful than GT-R, i think that will make it faster than not only F430, GT3...etc but also the bigger 599 and GT2. Good job Honda but the front end especially headlights and grille could be made more stylish.

If this is the next NSX this is hideous imo. I've been a Honda/Acura fan, however their designs from the 2000 and on are just not up to standards of the designs of the 90's. This design doesn't look like a super car. It looks like a replacement of the CL

Acura design staff fails again. They can't even pen a exciting looking supercar. The red flags should be waving all over Honda. Once again another Acura with out orignal lines.

Aston and Ferrari? there's delusions of grandeur. I insure you all, not one buyer of Ferrari or Aston will consider the car. Porsche 911, BMW M6, the ZR1 vette and GTR buyers perhaps, but not the real supercar buyers.

The best car that I ever drove was my friends NSX! It was also his favorite! His Ferrari spent most of it;s time in the shop $$$$ and he has had Porsche's too, the NSX just handles so well.Although this NSX could use a beak job. Aside from performance you have to know that it will be reliable.

So which will sell more, a supersexy low hp mid engine NSX that handled poorly or this ugly front engine AWD state of the art peerless handler? Looks or performance?
