It looks ok, prefer the original one tho

Excitement levels not rising with this one.

Completely agree on the i8. I did around 100 miles in one and could not wait to get back in my own car.

Just had no power past 75 mph

On Our roads, you dont need to go over 75mph. So.. Why make it so it can? :rolleyes:

Too heavy. Steering is pretty lifeless too apparently (caused by the torque vectoring).

I'm glad they're making cars again. Got a bit scary when they axed the NSX, S2000 and Type R within a few years of each other.

Doesn't appear to be strictly true. It's caused by trying to stop the driving "feeling" the torque vectoring, not the torque vectoring itself. It's been artificially numbed.

And in Germany you have unlimited Autobahn's.....we're not the only country on earth.

What is the likely price of this? What will it compete with?

I think that is what primarily will determine whether or not it's a success.

Its $150k I believe. So likely to be £130k ?

I like the look of it, but why does it sound like it's blowing bubbles after revving it lol.

See I was thinking at £75k-90k (or thereabouts) it could compete with the GT-R and other similar cars. Over £100K I'm not sure who would choose this over the alternatives (911s, McLaren sports series...)

At a guess they will be looking for the NSX Halo effect and hoping for very strong residual values.

Exactly what I meant.

I couldn't go through the pain of buying a car of this calibre from a Honda dealership.

Just doesn't look special enough for a £100K plus "super car"

May not need to, but the want is certainly always there.

The designer doesn't look too bad mind you..

Lightweight? No.

Vtec? No.
