yep, that rear shot was in R&T a couple issues ago i believe. The front looks awright to me.

Very similar to this old sketch...which i kinda like better.

Rear shot is the Honda DualNote concept car.

It's all photoshoppings...don't believe anything until it's hand drawn or from the factory.

I remember reading an interview with Honda's chairman/president (?) discussing a hybrid NSX. It would have been about 2 weeks ago, I think its from autoweek.com, but he said that the types of drivers considering the NSX would not be interested in fuel economy or hybrid technology. Makes me wonder if the next NSX will use IMA. I mean, IMA is great for fuel efficiency, but performance? Its possible, but doubtful in my opinion. But then again maybe he was just trying to throw us off!

Or maybe he's just trying to tell us that it's not gonna have an IMA anytime soon. Maybe they still need to test some more. To make sure it's completely reliable w/ those HP rating.

I could care less, at least at this point, what the NSX will look like. I want to know what is powering it.

To me, the rear of the car looks so awesome~~~ ^_^ I really like it. If they can stay with that design and make the front a little bit sharper, the next NSX will definitely look 10 out of 10. It will be a + if they can come out with some new technology like IMA to put on. But for now, with a little more luxurous goodies like auto-climate control and any other performance engine other than the retuned C-32 will lure me from going to other cars like Porche 911. It's not I don't like the C-32 engines~~ It's just NSX. I want some different stuff. I hope Honda can show us some new things they have developed so far~
