The i8 is anything but uninspired.
This looks so underwhelming it makes me want to fall asleep.

I dunno. I'd be lying if I said I didn't like it but it looks very generic. Without badges this could easily be a Lotus concept or some unknown manufacturer. It has no links at all with the original NSX. I know the NSX is dated but I still love it. This looks good but not as a NSX replacement. It looks like BMW i8/Lotus/Maclaren MP4

I've never liked the Acura "crease" on the rear bumper either. Can't tell if it's coming or going.

It looks like an R8 crashed into a RL. It's kind of hideous.

I like it better than the R8 and the Gallardo, though in shape/proportions Audi R8, Lamborghini Gallardo, McLaren MP4-12C, Lotus Espirt, BMW i8 and Honda NSX are all the same.
The BMW i8 is also a BMW M1 Hybrid. The i8 compared to the NSX is a 2+2, and has the same power but with a TU 1.6l I4 compared to the NA 3.7l V6 in the NSX. NSX sounds more sporty than i8. Last edited by BMW269; 01-11-2012 at 06:23 AM.. Reason: added video |

Looks A LOT like the R8. That's not a bad thing.

Nobody would ever mistake the original NSX for anything else. This one just seems to have a lot less uniqueness about it. However, I hope it delivers in performance to deserve the moniker.

I bet a lot of people would think they were Ferraris. An enthusiast wouldn't mix it up, but there are a bunch of people that would think an NSX was a highly modified 6th gen Accord Coupe. . .
