Default New NSX

I was just cruising around on my lunch break for a breather when I look up and coming my way appears to be a Ferrari.... no thats a vette... no... Lotus... damn thats a NEW NSX! I must say that I didnt like the new NSX when checking the magazine photos of it, but i must say it is one damn good looking car. I wanted to bust a U-turn and chase him down but couldnt. Anyways, actually saw one.

Not possible as it is not slated for production until mid 2005 at the earliest. You might have seen the HSC, but that is not going to be the exact final iteration of the NSX.

I think what he's saying is that he saw the newly styled NSX with the fixed headlights.

I can't imagine anyone thinking the HSC had already been released.

Also, the HSC is a show circuit concept, which auto manufacturers go to great lengths to keep secret. The HSC very likely was not a final technology, production piece. I'm guessing that the HSC may also not have been fully operational (like a lot of concepts). And we don't even know if the HSC will be exactly what a new NSX will look like.

It HAD to have been a current NSX. Without pics, we'll never truly know.

But I'm willing to be the one proven wrong here. Show me the money and I'll shut up.

The HSC is a working prototype.
