2006 Honda NS-X

Engine: 3500cc NA V6
Power: 400ps

Information from 'Best Car' magazine, Japan.

As you can see, lots of design cues from the Dualnote concept car.

What do you think then...?

What the hell did they do to one of my favourite cars?

...crammed a three and a half litre engine into it and gave it four hundred plus horse-power, that's what.

I know what you mean though, Rumple, has it lost the purity of the original?

 

[Rumple Foreskin]

It looks like poo poo

The current NS-X has aged very well, but it's due a facelift isn't it?

 

[Rue]

Oh, I almost forgot, here's the back...

 

[Rumple Foreskin]

After seeing the old NSX for many years I have grown very fond of its shape and after so much time this looks so different, it hurts to see the NSX badge on it

That's progress, Rumple

But I agree with you, the original NS-X is a legend in it's own right. Maybe Honda ought to think of a new name, after all the NS-X was soooo underated that I don't think that it would be too much of a problem not to use the name. The NS-X could live long in the annals of motoring history. LONG LIVE THE NS-X!!

Now for some reason, the back picture of that NSX reminds me of an Enzo Ferrari.

I agree, U18, my first thought of the back-shot was "enzo".. Otherwise it looks strange to me. Mabye the car looks a lot better irl. I mean Honda usually makes good designs.

 

[kazesupra]

I kind of like it, although I'm with the rest of you in the fact that it needs to look more like an NSX. Now if this engine was in the original.............damn.

 

[Klostrophobic]

Blah, what have they done? I know it's only a concept, but it's so damned hideous. Is Bangle designing cars for Honda now?

The current NSX is beautiful.

 

[TOYOTA FR3AK]

Looks like a photoshopped pic to me.

 

[Klostrophobic]

How so?

 

[nitro_2003]

no way is that a photoshopped pic. it just doesnt look like its been photoshopped,and besides its a scanned section from a magazine.

 

[Rumple Foreskin]

What The Hell Are These?

 

[Klostrophobic]

Bullet holes I hope. I know I'd shoot at it if I saw it.

 

[retsmah]

You guys are being a bit unrealistic.

There's no way they could make something that looks better than that

 

[under18carbon]

Yeah, but they can't keep the same design for a car without changing it eventualy. Every car will have a turning point, it's design will surely change to some futuristic ****, so, it might, I repeat IT MIGHT evolve into that fugly NSX that was posted in the first post.

No it isn't. The car before it might be beautiful. The current NSX makes one want to jam a pin in his eye, much like the 300M does.

Ok, I exaggerate a little.


Like the 360 Modena, I just don't see the big deal design-wise.

 

[Solid Fro]

Hopefully, Honda will realize their mistake and send this pile of crap to the junkyard.

The rear reminds me of the GT-R concept. I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing...

 

[skylineGTR_guy]

headlights are nice...the side makes it look ferrari-ish the vents near the window are freaking gay...i dont like tha back bumper or the lights....or the bullet holes...so keep the front and side but re design the rest.....

 

[Driftster]

I personally think it looks horrible in comparison to the prior NSx..it looks nice overall however..I don't like the Ferrari styling crossed with bubble Cab shape. And I think those rims are attrocious..

 

[Driftster]

gimmie this ANY day

 

[Hell Patrol]

The car look too Euro!!

 

[skylineGTR_guy]

the more I look at it the more it screams murcielago

I'm leaning more toward a blend of the 360 Modena and the Enzo. It looks nothing like an NSX ... infact I think it looks nothing like a Honda.

I would be very surprised if this car gets produced anything like what we're looking at.

 

[Dark Skyline]

everything but those stupid looking wheels:tdown:is fine:tup:

 

[bmwx]

That is a whole lot different from the NSX I'm used to. Such a major change, I don't know if I like it. Granted the 3L is very nice, but why did they have to go and style it like that? It looks like a wannabe italian car. They need to tone it down IMO.
