Honda NSX Postponed Again !

[MeraBoy]

The on-off saga of the launch of Honda’s all new supercar took another twist last week when CEO Takeo Fukui announced that Honda was putting back the launch of its Acura brand in Japan – and that the NSX replacement, which will be badged an Acura this time round, won’t be launched at this year’s Tokyo Motor Show.

Honda will not say when the new NSX will appear, but Acura’s launch in Japan will now not happen until 2010 at the earliest. It is likely that Honda would want to launch the NSX at its home show in Tokyo, and as there’s no Tokyo show that year, the real launch date could be as late as October 2011.

Fukui cited concerns over the suitability of the Japanese market for the Acura brand as the reason for the postponement. According to a Honda spokesperson, it has nothing to do with the car not being ready for the show.

Japanese show-goers will have to make do with the global debuts of the Nissan GTR and Lexus LFA supercars then. Oh well.

That is just a dummy, what makes you say it's a RX8??? The body is an extended S2000!!!!

[TOMEI-R]

Yup...thats just an extended version of the S2000. Most probably a prototype like they have in the factory test tracks. It looks like they are trying to make the S2000 a tourer or cruiser like the RX8. The NSX is a a supercar. The one in the picture sure doesnt look like a supercar to me.....:hmmmm:
