New NSX at 'ring?

It seems that the next NSX was in testing at the nurburgring this week disguised as a heavily modified S2000:

And according to the wonderful DVLA the engine is a not insignificant 5L, unless they're planning on shoehorning in a V10 into the current s2000?

Least it seems it is on its way rather than just a few sketchy concepts at car shows.

I love this - top marks for comedy disguise

This has been on the S2000 forums. 5 litre V10, nice

unusually good disgiusing. manufacturers usually just stick on black tape

That'll be the fourth manufacturer with one - what is it with this engine configuration all of a sudden?

Wouldn't exactly help them sell cars though, would it?

V10 was the old F1 car setup I think

the disguise is amazing

the black tape some manufacturers use makes it too blatantly obvious
