Re: carrera
The NSX has superior looks, handling, exclusivity, reliability.
It just doesn't have the badge or the branded golf bag. But who give a damn. It's a superior vehicle.
I find myself liking what you are saying The NSX has superior looks, handling, exclusivity, reliability.
It just doesn't have the badge or the branded golf bag. But who give a damn. It's a superior vehicle.
But then remembering that the Audi R8 is probably the closest/best modern day interpretation of the NSX in the abscence of the real thing.trackdemon said:

Along with the retirement of the S2000 - for which no immediate replacement is planned - Honda has also scrapped plans for the return of a rear-wheel-drive successor to the NSX.
On another site (and quite a few others saying it would be front engined)NSX: A sports car will debut for the 2011 model year and boast a 5.5-liter V-10 engine making about 550 horsepower and 420 pounds-feet of torque. Sources say it will have a front-engine layout and incorporate AWD. The NSX, which had a midengine layout, went out of production in 2005.

"The Germans had better dust off their old manuals on how to build cars properly again. They've been getting away with little more than badge engineering for far too long recently."
Kink is so right-- except the Japanese ain't any better-- and YET why isn't the automotive press saying as Kink says????
Usually it is the investigative press's job to review the state of the art products and comment on their state??
Indeed if the press continues to merely go on press junkets in sunny climes; and continues to publish boring slightly processed press-releases as the makers like... then who will give makers the idea theres a darn thing wrong? People are usually like sheep most just do as they are told as long as nothing in their life is too disrupted- well maybe that last line needs modification now that the US is becoming the USofUnemployment.
