The good news....
I have just read that Honda are ending production of their NSX, there will be 12 special color versions in the UK for sale and a special presentation in November. Apparently Honda are developing a new version later on.

TORRANCE, Calif. 07/11/2005 -- To further enhance the division's performance image, Acura is developing a new sports car to succeed the award-winning NSX supercar. Acura also announced that production of the current generation NSX will cease at the end of the year due to the extensive retooling necessary to meet stringent 2006 emissions and equipment regulations for the U.S., Europe and Asia.
"We are committed to having an ultra high-performance vehicle in the Acura lineup in the future," said John Mendel, senior vice president, automobile operations. "It's too early to comment on specifics, but the all-new model will be just as groundbreaking as the 1991 NSX."

Just to emphasise it ain't all bad!

I don't know if anyone has heard, but i think Honda are stopping the production of the NSX later this year.. sad day... takes out onion...
Enough NSX obituaries - Ed.
Seriously though, it is sad.
A great car despite looking dated for the last five years.
Come on Honda - replace it with something that makes all those 'supercar'
manufacturers shiver.

Personally, I think the car has a sort of timeless appeal, but I think I prefer the pop-ups to the fixed lights.
See my separate thread re Acura's press release. (I hadn't spotted anyone multiple-post that bit!)
Do I rush out & buy one or wait?
