Not bad. Not thrilled with the nose and all of the mesh on it.

NOT streetable and get in/out of any normal driveway

and I feel that modern car designers have run out of ideas, and this is a more typical end of the road approach, needs backed off out of that approach....

but then it looks like everything else.....as if anyone can tell anything at a glance.....

Bring back a modern version of the '59 caddy and the HUGE tailfins.....

take that exact body, keep the exact style, update all the mechanicals.....

Wow, only three years from motorshow concept to... another motorshow concept... are actual people ever going to be able to buy one?

Because recession. Lots of projects got put on hold in 2008 & 2009. And not just in the auto biz.

That explains the first attempt at the NSX II, which died in '09 and all the more reason to keep designs under wraps until you're much closer to production.

In '12 they showed us this car, saying it was going into production. Three years later, they show us this car, again, and tell us "no, really it's coming"... We've had this exact design to look at for so long, it's not new anymore.

The LFA had the same problem, by the time it came out it was old.

Even Porsche does it. I honestly thought there was no way Porsche would actually just build the 918 the way it was, I was expecting some kind of design change after three years with the concept. This is why the P1 and LaFerrari look modern and the 918 looks very much last decade... because we've been looking at it for half of one.

I dunno, maybe it's ME being bored with auto designs since the BOX concepts have taken over......they all look alike.....I can tell a VETTE from a mile away....all generations.....maybe a few mustangs, but nothing else....they just blend in with the crowds.....well OK, OLD GTO's.....

So, I'm watching Marvel's The Avengers movie on FX last night, and at the end of the movie, Iron-man Tony has one of these Acura what-ever-it-is cars. He and Capt America actually drove away in it.
Nice looking autombile.
Movie premerred in 2012.

:iagree: Yup, it is waaaay to busy. Other than that, not too bad looking.
