I thought the new "911" is called 993 or 996.

What does it say on the outside of the car? I believe it is still a 911. 993 and 996 are styles of the 911

IMO, the name NSX is perfect.

If they do indeed build a new NSX, I wouldn't mind seeing a name change to distinguish itself as the flagship model in the Honda/Acura lineup.

I agree, but I remember reading a post regarding this on another site. Someone mentioned that Honda was going for un-creative names for their cars to force customers to use the name "Acura", due to marketing research.
