Acura previews 2008 NSX with Advanced Sports Car Concept

Honda today unveiled the Acura Advanced Sports Car Concept, a preview of the design direction for the successor to the Acura NSX. The concept is designed to incorporate a powerful front-mounted, V-10 engine and a new high-performance, rear-wheel-drive based version of Acura's 'Super Handling All-Wheel Drive' (SH-AWD).

"Our intention was to design an exotic sports car that gracefully combines advanced technology and strong emotion," said Jon Ikeda, principal designer, Acura Design Center. "The technical, machined surfaces and keen-edge design are balanced with sweeping curves and dramatic lines, all of which results in the ultimate exotic sports car."

The production version of the new NSX will arrive at the Tokyo Motor Show in fall 2007.

I especially like the rear! Plus overall, this is much better than their sedan concept in LA.

Looks cool. I wasn't aware that the next NSX would have a front-mounted engine, though...
