No roll cage ???

From the in-car footage of this vid there is a roll bar in the car, but it is integrated so much as to almost be concealed.

There is no side impact roll cage structure however.

There is a full cage in the car including an FIA-spec side crash structure. Look at 4:55 into the video, look at the bottom of the screen in front of the steering wheel, you will see the top of the side impact structure. The side is an "X" that is boxed in at the joint of the 2 beams that you can just see from that camera angle.

It must be removable. At 2:39 of this vid (the same one posted above) there is a scene that shows the door removed and no side structure is visible.

Watched the whole video. Yes, it's weird that their is no FIA-side impact bars or any visible cage on the passenger (RHD passenger) area, but in that video, you can see the driver's side (Right side) crash structure a few times.

anyone know if the yellow on the spoon nsx is a nsx yellow or?

 

[NSXDreamer2]

spoon's yellow is a little darker for nsx yellow.

I might be wrong.
