Acura NSX Approved for Production! Concept to Appear at 2012 Detroit Show - Page 14 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

i think Japan may be heading for 0-3 (arguably 1-3)

Nissan GT-R, great car, but too much technology spoils the car's character (the arguable one)

Lexus LF-A, excellent engine, great shape, but ridiculous price tag and limited run of 500 denied the fans access.

Acura NSX, just seems uninspired

Subaru BRZ, just what everybody has been waiting for but it badly lacks power.

Looks like it's going to be priced in 458 territory. If it is, I might as well just buy a 458.

Just stop. NSX is going to be priced as GT-R and be faster than 458 Italia. Nothing can beat AWD AWS LTW Hybrid.

I wish....

The NSX will definitely not be GT-R territory price wise when you consider that back in 04' they were pushing 100k new

I'm thinking more along the lines of 991 Carrera 4S/Turbo territory, 120-130k is probably the neighborhood the NSX will push for the whole (exotica & exclusivity factor)

Turbo 4 hybrid

Teasing us with the Super GT version just like Subaru did with the BRZ before launch. Something I learned in this forum: Swan neck spoiler looks unconventional yet is hellafunctional.

NSX gets a longitudinal mounted brand new developped biturbo V6 (<90°) engine, unlike the initial transverse mounted NA V6 (60°) engine. That is good news. Makes the rumor of Type-R version with NA V8 possible. I'm sure this will be the best and fastest supercar on the market, proof of its potential is the 918 Spyder, which holds the lap record for a road going car.

Just think of Hybrid, Turbo, AWD, and AWS? Nothing can be faster. More, nothing will have better mileage.

So happy to se the Japanese back to the game in a new era. Nissan GT-R Nismo with a time of 7:08 min on the N-Ring, new NSX, new Civic Type-R with a time under 8:00 min on the Ring, new WRX, new RC, coming Supra,....can't wait for all this. Good times ahead.
