    Coming To Detroit: Honda NSX Successor Concept

    If there is one thing that has bemoaned enthusiasts for the past few years, it's the lack of the NSX from the Acura/Honda lineup. Orginally, Honda had originally planned out the NSX replacement, but was canned due to the global economic crisis.

    But within the past year, Honda has hinted at a return of the NSX, with their CEO Takanobu Ito adding fuel to it.

    If a report from Autocar is to believed, Honda will be showing a concept version of what could be the successor to the NSX at the 2012 North American International Auto Show in Detroit. The car, known as the Super Sports Concept will follow the Small Sports EV Concept that will be shown at the Tokyo Motor Show.

    Not much is known about the Super Sports Concept, but expect either a hybrid or electric powertrain.

    Instead of wasting resources bringing back a low volume, high-priced supercar, Acura should bring out a desirable, reachable car, because the current lineup isn't cutting it.

    consider that the latter US-market NSX was watered down from not only its then-current Japanese version, but its previous iteration (the NA1 is largely considered better than the NA2 as far as the Acura variants go). Also consider that Acura's lineup--rather all of Honda's lineups--are utterly boring. They desperately need a car like this to put some soul back into their lineup.

    I always liked the NSX. Just don't screw this up, Honda (they probably will).

      My vacation this past week didn’t pan out as planned, had to take an abbreviated trip closer to home.  Spent the last 3 nights in Marietta, Ohio down on the Ohio River.  Took the scenic route today up Ohio Rte 7 to my childhood hometown of Steubenville and out Rte 22 to 250 around Tappan Lake to I-77 then back home to the CLE area.  Took a couple scenic drives around Appalachian Ohio back roads Fri and Sat, my CT6 performed great on windy, hilly roads for such a big car.  It’s really a great road trip car.  Averaged 27.7 mpg over almost 600 miles.   Saw some interesting cars on the trip—an orange 70 Mustang coupe and a clean black ‘71 Chevelle.  Saw many dead and dying old cars in the backwoods fields and hollers.  Near my hotel, saw this red Thunderbird, orange MGB, red 1st gen Honda Insight (haven’t seen one of those forever), and a white C8.  Also saw sternwheelers and barges on the river. Fun, restful little getaway.

      Have to say this I totally agree with: Leasing is the best, most affordable way to get a quality new EV — here's why (thecooldown.com)

      CA made it impossible to use or enforce non-competes in the state.  That is why Silicon Valley became so dynamic over the last 30 years or so.  The abuse of non-competes is directly responsible for the crackdown and ban.  Good riddance!

      I have to say this is an interesting read and I align with what the editorial author is saying. Biden’s FTC just exposed one of the GOP and businesses’ biggest lies to workers (msn.com)

      Interesting read, it does bring up a very important point, will the current CCS power walls work forward once everyone moves to NACS charge port? Does EV home-backup capability outmode the Tesla Powerwall? (greencarreports.com) Which Electric Cars Have Bidirectional Charging (V2L, V2G, V2H)? | Zecar | Resources | Lists
