2nd Generation NSX - Page 10

Aaaactually, I bet that will be there.

This is a mid engined car, after all, and there needs to be somewhere for air to get to the engine.

Tis True I suppose.

I think the 19" TL wheels would look good if they resized them to 18's for this. I like the silver/black rim concept. Could just be me..

Those.

The wheels on the ILX concept look great...I wish they would have put THOSE on the NSX, frankly.

Directional wheels are retarded...because they will not make left and right.sets... so on one side it will lookcool, but on the.other it will lookretarded.

Driftster · Jan 26, 2012, 11:27 AM

^^^This guy..

Which is why the big hype over the wheels designed to draw air to cool the brakes on the SLR is retarded..because it was unidirectional on the production car.

First experience with direction wheels that look great until you see the other side?

which is why everyone would much rather have these..

ElctrcTelsa · Jan 26, 2012, 11:39 AM

I don't even like the top ones. Looks like they are terrible warped instead of actually made that way.

Cooper "s" · Jan 26, 2012, 1:04 PM

^^ 370z forged rims.. and they pissed me off to no belief... MAKE THEM SYMMETRICAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ElctrcTelsa · Jan 26, 2012, 1:08 PM

Hows the hybrid been treatin ya?

Cooper "s" · Jan 26, 2012, 1:11 PM

its good man... it has its things that annoy me.. and I do miss power... but It is a blast to drive... it goes very well for city and even highway driving, and I love playing with the paddles... even though it is very very very gay... I pretend I am in an f1 car.

ElctrcTelsa · Jan 26, 2012, 1:59 PM

I can't tell you how badly I want one.

Good to hear about the CR-Z. I told my brother he should get that over the Focus, but my family did not listen.

Tisk tisk.

Cooper "s" · Jan 26, 2012, 2:11 PM

What does it run? $500, $1000?

ElctrcTelsa · Jan 26, 2012, 2:58 PM

1330.

Way too expensive really.. You could probably make one yourself if you had the tools for way less than that.

Its the only real F1 inspired seat that I've found. There's a lot of NASCAR ones but nobody really cares about those.

On topic, I want a NSX playseat.

NSX will be marketed/sold as a Honda in every other country, it will only be an Acura in the US. Apparently Honda has no intentions of extending it's luxury sub-brand abroad.

It's also been said that the final production car (due at the end of 2013) will run around £100,000 instead of being priced competitively with the likes of the Nissan GTR (not my words). The selling point will be this cars' ability to acheive economy unheard of in its sector of the market.

I look forward to it, I just hope it sells well. The original NSX prices have remained stable but are now set to rise a little with the release of the new model...
