2009-10 NSX Prototype

Before you jump to say its an S2000....check again. It might look like one but its not....that sound cant be from a four banger...its a beefy V10.

So testing the new powertrain under a mule of a discontinued model is definitely...FTW..lol

sounds stupid to me... why would they take away the classic look of the nsx and make the nsx look like a retarded s2000 on steroids... just stupid if you ask me...

well he is wrong according to the article


The hood line has been beefed up and the passenger compartment is also bigger. This test mule is very close to the new 2009/2010 NSX and Honda could be using this heavily modified S2000 to test the upcoming powertrain and platform for the next NSX. Notice the four tailpipes in back, the huge B Pillar and the heavy-duty double wishbone suspension.

looks like they are just using a beefed up S2k To test the NSX powertrain

they said its very close to what the NSX is going to look like. i like the older style NSX for sure but they need a new look if they wanna revive something that never was a good seller to begin with. V10 vtec would do that lol.

that is not what the next NSX will look like.

they're testing the V10 using the S2000 chassis. not sure why but possibly because its the only other RWD car that Honda has in their lineup currently.

the new NSX body is still being designed.

There was an article on autoblog that thats just the test mule because honda wants to keep the new NSX underwraps until it is officially unveiled so nobody gets to see it before its unveiled

thats all talk for now. a V10 from honda would be really big news but again the price would go up sharply with that. its not easy to sell an nsx (from a business standpoint) considering its positioning among the high end sport cars.
