Far too much Audi/Lamborghini styling influence IMHO. Which will date rather quickly too.

An old NSX with the new car's bodywork grafted on.

And a dodgy-paedo-teacher-look guy driving it.

New video published on the Acura YouTube channel on 4th August 2013:

"It's not finished. But it is complete. The Acura NSX concept has moved to prototype and added an essential piece. The driver. One more step in the quest for perfect synergy between man and machine"

God, I hate all this Prick-teasing marketing.

It hasn't even got the right fucking engine in it yet.

My dealer sent a leaflet saying they expect these to be in the showroom in 2015. People are apparently coughing up 5 grand just to book a test drive.
Not sure if that's just marketing hype though. How can they get away with charging that just to test drive it.

A deposit, probably.

The car will be limited-production and Acura is trying to apply the same bulsit as M-B and Ferrari and the other experienced premium makers.

They tried a lot of that with the S2000 too, which is a reason I bought mine in Belgium.
