I'm with everyone suggesting it should just be lighter and more powerful.
-Couldn't care less about "improving" interior
-Make it sleeker (not bolder) while maintaining classic shape.
-Stylistically draw more from AP1 than AP2
-Lighter wheels
-Fabric option
-Keep it RWD (not AWD)
I suppose I won't really be happy unless its successor is more hardcore in every percievable category. I have disliked all the chages from '04-on with the exception of the 04-05 wheels.
on best motoring, only lambos with almost double the HP beat the NSX. you call that slow? on the track the NSX will out run most cars out there assuming the driver has decent skills under his belt.
Lambos arent exactly known for their great lap times. They are very heavy and not really made for racing, they are more for showing off how fat your wallet is. That isnt a regular NSX either FYI it cost +120k and it overheated trying to beat those Lambos. Your cars life isnt centered on the race track nor drag strip but it would be nice to excel at both wouldnt it? I wouldnt call a car balanced if it cant do anything otehr than corner carving. Did you see how far the Lambos left the NSX as soon as they got some open track?
Had it been a race between a 360 challenge, 911GT3 etc i would have been more impressed. Instead it was the base model cars vs a track prepped NSX-R. That isnt apples to apples.
PS i wouldnt take BMI as anything serious since all the drivers arent equally talented.
The entire principle of this post was pointless. The car wasn't intended to be spacious and practical. You want 2400lbs yet you want truck space, get outta here. 90% of the people complaining are dreaming because you can't have your cake and eat it too.
Update the styling when the time comes like 03->04 [even though the car won't be in production that long], upgrade the diff and transmission to take more abuse, and add 40hp anyway you want to. All the car needs is low 13's in the 1/4 to compete with anything you can bring up within 10k of its price range overall.
That's it. Turbocharged AWD? You missed the point by about 500,000 light years on this car. If you even THINK AWD you must have got VERY lost on the way to the Honda dealership. That being said, you probably don't have an s2k to begin with so that's not too much of an issue.
I would be happy with a lighter chasis, maybe using glue like Exige and Elise chasis insted of soldered weld.
With a lighter chasis the 240 hp is nice for track but not for high speed driving, but tihs car is made for tight turns and track, not as extrem as a lotus, rather than Autobahns. An LSD would be nice too. No more changes are necessary
Regarding the interior the guage cluster should be a liquid screen, like the Casio Watches, because on Sunny days is hard to read the gauge. I am 195 cm high and I am can't to see the guage cluster well becuase the wheel, and the roll bar is almost at my neck level when should be at my head level, see pic below, I have a red helmet
hmmmm
-full carbon fiber body
-stick with the f20c
-high compression ratio
-higher redline
-stronger differential, driveshaft, axles
-make it lighter say 2400 pounds
-make it sound like a f1
-make the chassis lighter like the lotus elise
-make the roll hoop a LITTLE higher so we won't have to add an aftermarket roll bar
-how bout make the car wider and lower
-make the push button start automatic so we won't have to hold it till it cranks(just 1 push)
-keep the beautiful red/black leather seat
