Nuff said.

Wonder if we'll ever see one at Barrett Jackson? :biggrin:

 

[Jim]

So they priced it at almost $500k to ensure none of them will ever hit the streets? :biggrin:

With only 280hp at $500k...why bother???

Oh ya, you have to sell em to race em.

Cheaper to convert your brand new NSX to a type R, then buy the nose and air scoop.

Is this all the info there is? I can only find duplicate stories..

I saw the little snippet in Autocar, i personally think the car looks stupid but surely there must be something special under the skin to justify the cost? Otherwise thats a rather expensive periscope..

Embarrassing...

 

[slashmatt]

The only thing that seems a bit interesting is the rear wing. Is that taller than the NSX-R wing? Looks like it to me.

This is certainly an embarassment to NSX and Honda. I could take a $35k 95 targa, bring it up to date with supercharger, 02 headlights and have carbon fiber acoutrements created, all for under $65k and it would look 1000x better. Why would anyone in a right state of mind purchase that hiddious mockery of an NSX.
