Passenger compartment seems fairly uncompromised.

Yeah :D

Not too desperate to apologize for Honda, champ.

I am now. Back in 2003 when they were pimping the HSC concept I wasn’t. But you know, way to be a snob about it.

So, it’s taken them so long because they’ve taken a long time? Is that the circular logic? Honda has been working on this since before the last NSX went out of production. And all the while they’ve had various motor racing endeavors. They just don’t care enough to deliver.

Plenty of other manufactuers released high end sportscars during the crisis.

Yeah, on the part of Honda/Acura.

I guess Porsche, Ferrari, McLaren, Ford, BMW all produce shit?

Did I think that?

Pretty much. Overpromise and underdeliver.

Sure, it happens. It’s called Honda and Toyota.

Huh? That’s Honda’s problem.

Ford wasn’t teasing us with the new GT for over a decade.

That’s Honda’s problem. Other manufactuers don’t have to scrap plans and start over.

That’s really all it’s got going for it. But at that level it’s got to fend off sexiness like the R8, 911 and even stuff like the 570S.

This. Honda/Acura doesn’t understand market relevance. NSX is trying to do too much, has lost its way.

Other manufacturers can roll out a new product much more quickly.

Well for about 50% more price and being about a decade newer, I’d hope so.

4Runner is without a doubt a better vehicle than Wrangler. But the Wrangler just looks so much cooler. ;)
