The more I have been reading/looking at the upcoming Acura NSX, the more intriguing it is to me. There are some good recent pics of it as #acuransxontour. It is going to have a more sophisticated hybrid set up compared to the LaFerrari or the 918 Spyder, with independent motors to each front wheel (as opposed to a motor to the front axle).

I've been in the top spot at my local Acura dealer for the Acura NSX for the past ~3.5 years. I received a call from him this weekend and he said they are delayed again and they aren't orders until next year with delivery in 2017. I may put a deposit down on one when he calls and tells me that it is ready for orders. I really like the NSX design, but not sure yet if it will be the successor to my F-Type R.

In the looks department I don't think it compares to a F Type.

NSX, hands down. As much as I like the F-Type, the NSX is in another class/league, competing against 458/488, McLarens. A bonafide supercar. If it's even half as good as the original NSX it'll sill be an amazing car. The SVR, at the end of the day, is derived. Tweaks, tuning, etc., but still a F-Type at heart. But the NSX is an entire new platform with much more advance technology. It represents the future whereas the F-Type is the present. Performance wise I will beat anything that the NSX runs circle around the SVR.

NSX looks awful to me. I don't care how fast it is. I like my girls pretty.

Original NSX was amazing looking, the Acura "wedge" design aesthetic has never appealed to me in the slightest. Sadly for the new NSX they have cranked the angular look to 11.

It is not a pretty car, but should be a fast car. Same thing can be said about the GT-R though.
