Default My trip to Japan - Honda Accord and news ...

Folks,

I just came back from Japan - taking my baby to visit my my in-laws....this is my 7th trips, but this time I spent some times
going to different dealers to check out the JDM cars.

The Accord, with navi and etc only 2300000 yens, which is less
than 20K US. I have the pictures with the price tag.

I also saw the magazine which show the actual picture
of the new NSX, it's a V6, 330 horse power....it a "complete" change from the current look. It's more like a Ferrari...with the cockpit and roof line like 350Z. And the new Toyota Supra and GT and IS300. Unfortunately when I went back a few days later
the magazine was taken away and replace with the new edition.
The new NSX is NICE....perfectly WOW, like when the S2000 was
instroduce...it's a WOW.

I have more pictures of the FIT, etc...but I don't know how to load it ....

any question....feel free to email me.

:lmao: you're so gullible :rofl:

The "pics" of the next Supra, Aristo (GS) and Altezza (IS) can be seen in the news and rumors forum but are nothing more than photoshops or crazily done drawings. The "actual picture" of the NSX is you speak of is an obvious photoshop of an NSX Type-R. Trust me, the next NSX will have a lot more than 330 horsepower :lmao:

lol, it's a photoshop. In fact, I bet I have the picture. It's from BestCar if memory serves. It's clearly a photoshop, albeit a fairly well done one. The body is the same as the NSX Type-R. It even has the hood intake and the side scoops. The side scoops look to be exactly the same, as are the wheels. There are several auto magazines in Japan that specialize in speculation, BestCar being one of them. That is what you call a "fake". The NSX will have more than 330 horsepower, I'd bet my left nut on it. There's a decent chance that it might have an IMA drivetrain. So you can believe the white guy who moderates the news and rumors forum and guessed correctly on the S2000's displacement change and the Accord's horsepower before they happened based on Honda treneds, or you can believe the magazine from Japan that must be credible because it's from Japan.

Found the pic:
