Lice Locket, Steve C is correct, the NSX-R is actually 320hp. I have no idea why they still advertise it as 276bhp, since they've already broken the agreement. I'm at Uni right now, but once I get home I'll try to find a link where they've blueprinted the exact changes made to it compared to the regular NSX engine.

The "next" NSX will win over fanboys across the world with a V6 and the styling of ten years ago.

No NSX replacement. Not for now! Honda it's working on the new Supra with Toyota.

Sure they are. Dogs and cats living together....

The rumor is that Honda is licensing SH-AWD to Toyota. A second rumor on top of that is that the new Supra would have SH-AWD. That's a far cry from Honda and Toyota working together.

Personally I'd believe in some form of sharing way before believing the Supra is ever coming back. Those dorks have promised it practically every year since the last one was killed.
