2011 Acura NSX | 2010 Honda NSX


New 2011 Acura NSX as a sports car off of Honda’s lineup attracted lots of rumors and speculations as auto enthusiasts were thrilled to learn about what was in store for this vehicle model. 2011 Acura NSX sports car has been good for the beloved sparkling original curve. There were also several predictions from industry experts about the possibility that the new ASX model will be patterned after the Acura Advanced Sports Car Concept.
2011 Acura NSX will have a front mounted V10 with at least 500 horsepower. But it can also just have either a V8, a twin turbocharged V6, or even a high power hybrid system. But for now we really think it will have a 5.5L V10 with 550 horse power and 420 pound-feet. We know Honda is going for Green. But since its going out as an Acura brand. The car will have a new Honda-designed double clutch automated manual transmission with 8 speed-steering wheel shift paddles. Most likely it will be All-Wheel-Drive or might even come out with rear wheel drive.
The all new Acura NSX was a car of firsts. It was the first production car to feature aluminum construction for its body structure, body panels, suspension and engine. Its engine was the first to feature variable valve timing and a variable-volume intake manifold. It was the first Japanese sports car sold in America to truly go head-to-head with the world’s best. Furthermore, all of this ichiban stuff came from an automotive brand that, at the NSX’s debut, had been in existence for just five years.

The latest prototype of the 2011 Acura NSX has finally hit the Nurburgring, Germany. Although the design of the original concept didn't get favorable reviews, it appears as though Acura has stuck with similar styling for the2011 Acura NSX production car. Instead of going for an all-out sports car, Acura is aiming for high-end GTs instead. As a result, Acura has adopted a traditional front-engine 2+2 layout. That said, the 2011 Acura NSX is still expected to offer supercar performance. One hand timed lap of the Nurburgring, Germany. came in at 7:37, just 8 seconds longer than the GT-R's fastest lap.  Credit the NSX's formidable new power plant, a 5.5-liter V10 with as much as 550 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque. Getting all this power to the ground will be a challenge in a front-engine car, so the new NSX will employ a modified version of Honda's 2010 Honda Acura NSX Super-Handling All-Wheel-Drive (SH-AWD) system. Packaging could be tight, however, with the big V10 up front. A combination of steel and aluminum will be used for the chassis that will form the basis for what looks like a relatively small car.
