No HSV? Designed in Ohio? No thanks, unless some serious name dropping like Kenosuke Taki starts happening.

There's plenty of Acura's patented ugliness in that rendering. It kind of looks like Big Bird fcked a retarded Auroch, and this was its offspring. Hell, that rendering even makes Mazda's happy face fascia's look attractive with that derp beak/grin.

It's like Honda and Mazda both got drunk at a party, smashed, Honda got knocked up, and had that thing in the picture. It has some decent features but it has the smiley/fishy face of the Mazda 3 and the beaks of the acuras

That thing looks ugly. Honda has alot of making up to do and I too have lost all faith in them. Better not be 50k for a K engine.

Honda should close the Ohio design studio. I am not liking what they design at all! Honda could do a lot better in the looks department. Does any Acura or Honda win buyers from looks alone? Luckily Honda has some quality underneath the surface....

This entire article is just speculation.


...artist's impression.
Seems like people aren't reading.

Power will likely be provided by a turbocharged direct-injection engine.
Right...

...the Small NSX would likely cost between $50,000 and $60,000.

Agreed. Looks like the art for a hotwheels package.



No thank you. I don't think that rendering came from Acura but they need to fire all of their design people and bring back the ones that were there during the 90 and very early 2000's.
