Default NSX Coming back soon...

Always been a fan of the older models, never owned one. Would consider the new body style for the right price.

I expect that the new NSX will be closer to $130K+ than the $95K that article predicts, but with 'above 458 Italia' performance numbers.

We'll all find out soon enough!

This thing has been "coming" for seemingly forever now.

I didn't read this particular article, but are they still building it in Ohio?

Let us hope it doesn't turn into the quagmire of continued development that became the Lexus LFA. It took them 7 years to finally lock in the design for manufacture. But from what I understand the LFA was an excercise in keeping one of the descendents of the great Sakichi Toyoda busy and entertained.

But Honda with their philosophies shouldn't let the new NSX linger in development for too long. I just want way more power than the original. If they keep it light and as quick to change direction like a Lotus. I would love to see the Caveats and what Honda is aiming for. I just want room for someone who is in the 90th percentile in height - at least 6'5" comfortably. My heart had been broken more times because I can't fit my Mutant Height Frame into the car. Like I was when I was a kid in high school, seat all the way back, adjusted all the way back and my legs still hit the dash and the top of my head touching the top - that car the then new RX-7 Twin Subquential Scroll Turbo. That car I loved so much just by reading articles from Motor Trend which did a Comparo with the Mitsubishi 3000GT-VR4, The 300 Z (can't remember if it was an "ZX") Turbo, Corvette and of course the RX-7. This was circa 1991-92..

What was even funnier was trying to fit in a Honda S2000. Now that is truly a clown car for the lack of size of folks who can fit in it. They made that car specifically for the Japanesse market and then brought it to the U.S. as an aftet thought!
