2008 Honda NSX In Testing

May 22, 2007 by Alborz Fallah  




We last wrote of the upcoming Honda NSX (or Acura NSX for our American readers) back in November last  year. Since then Honda has been a little quite, perhaps trying to avoid a great deal of hype prior to the car’s launch.

Nonetheless, photographers have spotted a highly modified S2000 in Germany which appears to be powered by the same engine lined up for the NSX.

The NSX is expected to come in two forms, one powered by a 4.5-liter V10 and the other by a 3.6-litre V6. There is also talk of an AWD system for the V10 variant.

These spyshots were taken outside the famous Nurburgring track in Germany and suggest that work is still very much in progress. As you can see the Honda S2000 features four tailpipes and a heavy-duty double wishbone suspension. Is this powered by the new Honda V10? Expect more details are they become available.

    wow

    japanese car makers are really stepping it up now when it comes to performance cars. i think with the “gentlemens” agreement now being shunned we are going to see a lot of amazing cars coming out of the land of the rising sun

    That car in the pic is not an NSX, its an S2000, also Honda have dropped the NSX.
    Nice pic though.

    Wow! Look up there! Above me! Why I do believe it is a moron!

    They dropped the NSX name for the car but that’s what the public’s calling it. The car in that “nice pic” is a test mule.

    Re; Sam

    No shit Sherlock…

    It’s a rather heavily extended/modified S2000 exterior to hide the new drive-train/engine/car they are testing.

    dumbass.
