This sounds real impressive. All-wheel drive and she is beautiful. Most likely will be completely out of my price range, however wow...

All we know is its going to cost a lot. A ridiculous amount compared to the old NSX.

It looks like a lot of other cars... doesn't stand out in any particular way.
Looks R8 ish in the front and like a modified TL in the rear.
You wanna be excited because of the name... but is it really something to be excited about... I guess you don't have much choice? Maybe over time it will grow on the community.
I don't remember not being excited about the NSX in its orginal form, but we're not there and that time is not this one.

Considering the majority of NSX sales was here in the US, it's going to be built and developed in the US. On the flip side we'll probably get special editions too.

The technology like the first one will be a huge leap forward for super cars.

One could say the original design was a Japanese copy of Italian cars of the time. The Japanese Ferrari. Did that make it any less cool? Nope.

I'm saving my pennies
