It looks like a very quick car, particularly the rapid yet fluid change of direction in high speed turns. The exhaust note is dead sexy, sounds like an F1 car.

is that going to be the repalcement for the acura NSX?
I have never heard of that model before looks like it would be a good contender to take on the new GT-R

That's their entry for SuperGT racing, and yes it is rumored that it will be a production "replacement" for the Honda NSX. IMHO, they won't sell this as a production car. It's a shame, but I just don't think they will. Many sites say the same-- no production, but folks really want something sporty from the company so they keep hope alive.

That's a 3.4 liter V8 you hear singing the Honda theme song in the first post above.

Yeah, it is no replacement for the NSX. Its a car Honda is claiming is production ready so it can race in SuperGT, that is all. Look at some other SuperGT cars and you'll get an idea of how loosely based they are on actual production cars.
