I like it, totally new car, designed and engineered to be a proper driver's car.
Shame it'll be only offered with paddle-shifter, manual gearchange made by Honda are among the best in the world. Gordon Murray took the NSX gearbox as inspiration for the McLaren F1...

The front clearly looks NSX, I think the windows look very Enzo-ish don't you think? but to be honest I think it needs some side mirrors...but overall I think the next NSX should look something like this... as many other I still have doubts about the rear....but I like it..

That cant be a japanese car !!! I just cant believe it.
I agree the car seems to have "borrowed" a few styling elements.
The side looks like an enzo.
The back looks like a possible skyline replacement.
The trunk looks a bit like a zonda, and has the transparent cover that looks similar to a 360 ferrari.
but heck, it still looks pretty darn good. But isnt it a big short for a "super car"...hah. and that engine looks pathetic when compared to the likes of a zonda, but i guess thats not being too fair.

Some info:
The engine is a bored (and stroked??) version of the current 3.2 liter, with volume increasing to 3.5 L and output at "300+" hp. The transmission will be a new six speed sequential manual. The car's design places an emphasis on exotic materials--notably carbon fiber and aluminum; the aim is to bring about a similar change in design thinking as the previous NSX (which was one of the first cars to heavily use aluminum in any kind of volume production). There is also emphasis on light weight (which it will need in a world of 500 hp exotics!). Price is expected to remain near constant.
I really like it (except the back which is a bit tacky to me), and let me be the first to say that 300 hp is enough for me if it's in a good package. Can't wait for more details!

Awesome! Man I can't wait for that game to come out! The McLaren F1 made it in too (although currently they only admit a longtail race version is in--I bet (hope!!!)the road car is being kept secret until its release).

Well, the official motivation is "licenses"... and IMO no GT4 will be the same...

Not really sure afterall... in the last year there were LONG ASS discussions about that, but a real and true "why" is still not known as far as I know... so useless to keep trying to guess just cross your fingers
