<b>Alright, if you have not realized by now, these 3d renderings were done by me, <b>N Spec</b>. Please do not go around claiming you did them, or anything like that. They will be on my site soon when I revamp it and are copyrighted.

I appreciate the comments. I cannot at this time do any major adjustments or changes for anyone. The biggest reason because they are 3d models and modifying 3d models are alot harder than drawing some lines in photoshop. I can make new renderings, but not major changes to the actual model. This was a quick, personal study I did for myself, on the next gen NSX. If you would like to use them for purposes other than displaying just for show, then please ask for my permission.

If you would like to inquire upon my services or whatever, my resume is listed on my site. I try to keep that up-to-date. I also have HIGHER RES pics if anyone wants them. More pics are to come and I have some other iterations before these ones too. I even thought about doing a FR layout version since Honda seems to bent on that, maybe I will pursue that next.

UPDATE 2/22/07, It's kinda big, ~ 1.7 MB. I made a quick 360 animation:</b>

360 Animation

Taken from an anonymous source:

Acura has released teaser photos of the upcoming successor to the legendary NSX. After much debate, Acura designers have finally agreed on the design direction. In attempt to save time and cut cost, a preivous design was revisited.

The short-lived HSC concept is reincarnated after the last design direction for the new NSX became too controversial. This new concept deemed the Acura “New Sports Car” Concept is designed and built around a new platform to incorporate a powerful mid-mounted V-10 engine and a rear-wheel-drive based version of Acura’s exclusive Super Handling All-Wheel Drive™ (SH-AWD™).

The concept’s exterior seems to be a synthesis of the previous HSC and ASCC. Losing the long nose from the ASCC concept, the tail is elongated to hide the new powerful engine beneath. The long tail, mid-engine stance is much more provocative compared to the last long hood design. The cockpit profile is softened compared to the sharp angled roofline apparent on the HSC, giving a more balanced and elegant stance.

The wide and low appearance is very reminiscent of its predecessor, with subtle changes to accommodate the new performance platform. Thin LED illuminated headlights are stretched wide and designed to mimic the headlights found on the first generation NSX. Other styling hints include the large, red rear taillights that have slate-like texture and the original black top color scheme. The aesthetics of the NSC are quite familiar to the Pagani Zonda.

Short overhands with 105.1 inch wheelbase maximize the handling and agility. Slotted carbon ceramic brake discs and eight-piston calipers ensure the stopping power for a powerful machine. Five-spoke forged aluminum alloy racing wheels are wrapped with 245/35ZR19 tires in front and 295/30ZR20 tires in the rear. The wheels are brimmed with a deep dish lip that accentuates the aggressive stance. The body is constructed from aluminum and carbon fiber keeping the curb weight as low as possible. This new coupe weighs in at 1350 kg, which will allow it to be as nimble as ever.

Two versions are going in production: one will be a GT and the other will be a full-fledged super car. The GT version will receive a 3.7 liter high-revving V-6 that will produce in upwards of 380 hp. The base model will also feature a modest trunk and will have the option of having the SH-AWD™ for every day driving. The premium model will dawn the “NSC-R” moniker. It loses the trunk, but will include a V-10 engine with over 500 hp, SH-AWD™, race tuned suspension and extensive weight savings for shear performance.

The base GT expected cost will be in the $80,000 area whereas the NSC-R counterpart will be well over the $100,000 mark. Only the NSC-R will receive the F16 black top, extra air inlets on the cowl to provide more air flow to the V-10 engine and will have a limited production of roughly 1000 units per year.

Acura New Sports Car Concept dimensions:

Width: 76.3 in
Length: 170.3 in
Height: 45.4 in
Wheelbase: 105.1 in
Tires:
Front: 245/35R19
Rear: 295/30R20

*weight and dimensions are for V6 variant without SH-AWD™
**NSC-R specs are still undetermined and will be released at an undisclosed time after the NSC GT's debut

What anonymous source? :confused: Who? You?
Those are nice photoshop. It's a nsxprime members wet dream and motivation to find the money.

Believe it when I see it.

Couple concepts you could sat down and turned the key(HSC, ASCC) but probably wouldn't start it. hehehe...but I do agree with you.
 
Could you adjust it so the hatch flows into the truck so you can see the engine? Similar to Ferrari. Or after the passenger compartment, go straight down and straight back similar to the carrera gt.
 
Wow, that looks cool! Especially the side view - g - 3rd pic from the bottom. I want one :smile:
 
We need a marketing guy... who can slip this into the media, like its a real news release..:smile:

Send it to AutoWeek and Ferrarichat and see if we can start a PR wave that forces Honda to think for a second. :cool:

i think you're on to something there.

i think the op should create a presentation (graphics, marketing hype, etc) then put it on youtube so we primers can begin passing it around and drawing attention to it.

whether the next gen should be called "nsx" is not something i have an opinion on, so no flames, thank you very much.

Looks promising,,me so horny again!:biggrin:
 
I made a background (1280 x 960 & 1024 x 768) from some of the pictures of the NSC maybe some one wants a background of a V10 Honda (lol:biggrin::biggrin:)
