You will notice, there are a tonne of photos with the lights in the event turned on, I stuck around for a while after last call and dodged security guard after security guard until 45 minutes later 2 of them cornered me and literally walked me out of the show.
Top tuners in the Nissan and Honda sectors come together for the first time on US ground. Mine’s Motorsports president Michizo Niikura explains and shows us Mine’s Motorsports Tuned Nissan R35 GT-R (with 600hp Nissan GT-R - Amuse Tuned in second?) and Spoon president Tatsuru Ichishima explains the limited production NSX-R GT.
We have recently been treated to several zebra-pattern camouflage 2010 NSX spottings in June at the Nurbrugring in Germany and as a result here are some speculative renderings to surface of Honda’s new V10 powered Acura NSX replacement.
HOT OFF THE PRESS FINALLY!!! Honda has apparently started testing pre-production prototypes of its highly anticipated 2010 Acura NSX, as speculated by these recent spy photos taken in Germany.
By most accounts, Honda originally planned to show off the next generation NSX to the seething throngs at last year’s Tokyo Motor Show. But due to the less-than-positive reception the Acura Advanced Sports Car concept garnered at the Detroit show, Honda’s designers headed back to the drawing board to redesign the front clip housing the 550 hp, 4.5-liter V10.
Confirming widespread speculation, American Honda Motor Co. Inc. CEO Tesuo Iwamura told WardsAuto.com “We are developing it without any delay, so most probably we will have it in the period we already promised”. The car will arrive in 2010.

Ferrari has started the development of mid-engined F430 successor.
First test mules are based on the, yet to be released, F430 Challenge Stradale and have now started to rack up test kilometers on the Fiorano test track as well as the winding mountain roads around the Maranello headquarters.
Listen and watch Murcielago after Murcielago, Gallardo after Gallardo, Diablos, 2 Ariel Atoms, F40, NSXs, Vipers, 911 Turbos, plus MUCH more awesomeness pull out of the event parking lot and completely destroy the asphalt!! I would have loved to be there to feel the power of these sweet Italian machines.
There's mixed information about the new NSX, particularly around what the target market is. If it's going to combat the Gallardo and the F430, that bumps the price and the performance. If it takes on Aston Martin, that changes things as well. Maybe Honda's heard the same rumors and decided two different layouts as a result.
The Acura NSX has a mid-engine, rear wheel drive layout. Plus an all aluminum body and chassis. The engine which is a V6 comes in two flavors, the 3.0 L C30A V6 and the 3.2 L C32B V6. Photos of the last 15 years included.
I am currently in the market for my next car, which I have decided to be a used Acura NSX. I plan on reporting the state of the used NSX market in North America as well as detailed findings for every car I interview to take the position as my daily driver car for 8 months of the year.
For the first time in 30 years, a new Honda factory will be built in Japan. Among other things, it will manufacture V10 engines for an upcoming supercar -- unquestionably the new NSX for the 2008-2009 model year.
