While everyone thinks that Acura is not up-to-par in the luxury or performance game, the upcoming next-generation NSX will change all that for the Honda owned brand. According to AutoExpress, along with the Nissan GT-R and the Lexus LF-A, the 2010 Acura NSX will take on the Aston Martin V8 Vantage, Maserati GranTurismo and the Jaguar XKR.

So far we’ve heard rumors that the 5.5L V10 powering the next-generation NSX will produce 500-hp. According to a new report the 5.5L V10 is expected to produce 600-hp with a peak torque of 443 lb-ft. It will be mated to a rear-wheel-drive architecture and a 6-speed dual-clutch gearbox.


For everyone that judges a performance car based on Nurburgring lap times, the 2010 Acura NSX prototype has lapped the famous German track at a record time of 7:37.

AutoExpress also says that the next NSX will weigh 1,500kg - 250kg less than the Nissan GT-R. Pricing is expected to be £100,000 ($283,000).

Don't worry about that price, I don't think that is correct.

personally i think its ugly.

i agree with smith... they need to do some serious adjusting to the body to get me to pay that much for a car that looks like that. id rather the gtr due to the way it looks... or id rather have an older nsx lol.

[beckertb]

I serously just threw up in my mouth a little bit looking at that thing......

But if it can lap the ring in <7:26.4, would it then be the fastest production car to do so :banghead:

[JustaSloWgn]

WTF.. that looks nothing like the concept

[killa_D]

so sad to see honda had to throw a v10 to hang with the big boys while we still havent even seen Nissans gtr v-spec thats all.

[davidf]

What is sad is the NSX platform has been mid engine for 17 years and now it goes away.

The Honda NSX might be gone, but it's set to live on as the HSV-10 GT in Japan's SuperGT championship.

Although we don't have an official release or specs yet, we do have the image above and some preliminary details on the HSV-10 GT or Velocity Sports Honda. Built to the 2010 GT500 regulations, the new front/mid-engine racer from Honda is packing a 500+ hp, 3.4-liter V8 and sending power through the same Ricardo sequential manual gearbox fitted to the 2010 SuperGT cars from Nissan and Toyota. Underneath all that glorious carbon fiber is the same chassis Honda's been working on (originally as an NSX replacement) for the last two years. The SuperGT season opener is scheduled for March 20 and 21 of 2010, but we expect more details and a host of high-res images to hit soon. Stay tuned...

^Yep, they're going to race it but not sell it to consumers.

They can do this because the rules state that the car must be "production-ready" and not necessarily produced for the public.
