Kasino JohnsonJan 18, 2012 I only wish that Acura would revise their whole lineup. It went south. I drive a 3rd gen TL & when '12 TLs pull up next to me … I wanna crack the "don't you feel stupid" smile.
Devon NelsonJan 16, 2012 They will make this I'm sure
Ron VinsonJan 14, 2012 While I think it's attractive, it already looks dated as a concept. The Audi R8 came out 5 years ago.
Cody AndreeJan 13, 2012 The original NSX was far from flawed. 280 hp and hitting 0-60 in 5.5 or less is damn decent. And for the time it was a beaut and still is. More like extremely well rounded
Paolo PreziosoJan 13, 2012 Size ratios don't equal power ratios. Your logic is flawed :o
Jake KnickmeyerJan 13, 2012 There's such a thing as absolute speed though. Aerodynamics will probably never allow a street legal car to make it to 300 mph.
Devin BabynJan 13, 2012 I love the old NSX. Little bit of tuning and a couple upgrades and that car kicked ass
Maury L. MeredithJan 13, 2012 Acura will produce another underpowered NSX. Watch how they mess this up again. All show no go.
Justin RouthJan 13, 2012 1/10 scale size. Doesnt take into account that rc cars are made out of plastic. They can also put batteries where they cant in regular cars..
Blaise StevensenJan 13, 2012 The need to ditch the electric motor and put some turbos on it. It should be a GT-R competitor.
Justin TuckerJan 13, 2012 Don't think it will make it
Description: Acura NSX Concept: Ever since the original NSX ceased production in 2005, fans and enthusiasts have practically begged Acura to build a replacement. The Japanese automaker was always keen to do it, b...Add Comments2
Mario CallirgosJan 13, 2012 @brad. Your absolutely right It was great when it first came out but they failed to updated it and the compitition got better and left it for dead
Brad WoodJan 13, 2012 They wouldn't buy them off the showroom floor, but begged to build a replacement. Why, to hang a poster somewhere? It was a sales flop. Don't build it unless it is absolutely world class; quality, design AND performance. Or history will repeat itself

Chris PenzaJan 13, 2012 This isn't the car for me. I'm proud to say I will never drive an EV or any hybrid
Mario CallirgosJan 13, 2012 Hybrid awd Sounds like if you want an NSX... By used
Matt PiccoloJan 13, 2012 This is sweet though, I loved and still love the nsx
Alex LeuJan 13, 2012 It's does not take 2 year to build this car -_-
Blaise StevensenJan 13, 2012 I read they were going to start building it in three years. That means it will be in showrooms in more like five years at the earliest if that's true.
Nick MitchellJan 16, 2012 @evan is you CAP lock broke because it seems like you only use cap... And this does not feel like the original to me
Henz HerreroJan 14, 2012 Mid engine wid sh-awd.. Lets give it a chance.. Will be built in ohio so i wanna check it put
Thomas TrudzinskiJan 13, 2012 It will be like Captain Kirk driving the classic being chased by a robot on a hover bike. Although I would take the Audi from iRobot.
Cody JacquesJan 13, 2012 I dont have doubts that this will be a decent super car. but for a tuner fanatic, calling this an NSX is sort of offensive.
Cody AndreeJan 13, 2012 If we didn't have hybrid systems we wouldn't have sports cars in ten years. Period stop complaining people
Cody JacquesJan 13, 2012 This car in no way resembles the NSX. The NSX is a simple, light, RWD, tuner/track car.
This car is none of those, this car desperately needs a totally different name.
Kevin RehbockJan 13, 2012 Never said it was a failure, it's just not my preference to have a car gain more weight over each generation. The SLR McLaren was a porker but I think it performs very well with the weight it has to haul around.
Jake KnickmeyerJan 13, 2012 It's called evolution. Car manufacturers are trying to make sports cars more fuel efficient so that they can actually exist. Don't knock the hybrid systems if they actually work and give good performance numbers while increasing fuel economy.
Mario CallirgosJan 13, 2012 The cars rep is already ruined. AWD and hybrid
Tyson BroadbentJan 13, 2012 Weight doesn't always = fail Kevin, there are lots of examples of heavy cars that did well. Whether it be top speed or on the track.
Kevin RehbockJan 13, 2012 AWD plus motors and batteries = more weight, no bueno
Puneet DassJan 13, 2012 Electric motor = instant power
Zaire WilkinsJan 13, 2012 this will have tons of torque cause of the hybrid system
Jimmy Jose LopezJan 13, 2012 Never mind hahaha my mistake. Sorry about that lol
Jimmy Jose LopezJan 13, 2012 Except this isn't the NSX haha read on....
Kent SullivanJan 13, 2012 Callum you do realize Lexus is rivals with Acura right? Why would they give them their prized LFA V10?
Carlos Ernesto GarciaJan 13, 2012 Mid engined super car hybrid with electric boost. So this is wat u buy if u cant afford a 918 spyder
Callum MckayJan 13, 2012 It should have a small V8 or a LF-A V10
Byakka HirakawaJan 13, 2012 If they do (which i doubt) make this
It just wouldnt seem/feel like the nsx

Anthony Villa-GarciaJan 14, 2012 Also for u people complaining the 300k lfa, go look at the price of lambos and ferraris, they are 250k and up.
Anthony Villa-GarciaJan 14, 2012 Im expecting this car to be in the 100k range if its a SC, but i also think it could be up to 200k to compete with lambo ferrari and mclaren.
Patrick SchalkJan 14, 2012 I dunno if I like this big turd.
Scott LenahanJan 14, 2012 super sexy one heck of a looker!
Ron VinsonJan 14, 2012 It's funny that I have not seen anything written about where this car slots in the Lexus lineup. I thought the LFA was cool but not for 300k. #Fail. What is the expected price point? SC?
Bull DogoneJan 13, 2012 Would change Lexus's reputation forever. They were bold enough to build the LFA (egotistical indulgence by chairman of Toyota "because we can" but obtainable by few). Could be considered rightful successor the the heritage brought forth by the Supra.
Jake KnickmeyerJan 13, 2012 Can I use that grill to shave? Outside of that, it's beautiful.
Adam LopinskyJan 13, 2012 I know that the mirrors will have to be bigger if this reaches production, but I really hope they keep those side intakes.
Kyle McCulloughJan 13, 2012 Its certainly striking. I think toned down a little, could make a nice 6-series competitor
Matt PiccoloJan 13, 2012 Idk what ur talking about, this is sweet and the interior is amazing

Vince DeMasiJan 13, 2012 The front looks like an Acura TL from this angle

P_R_N_DJan 14, 2012 this looks like a Hyundai genesis refresh not a Lincoln. I like the current one better than this.
donkatieJan 14, 2012 what the hell is this? a refresh for old people. they need to know we are in a different era, young generation, create something for young people. this crap is ugly.
Chris O'BrienJan 14, 2012 matt: there, they're, their. learn them well.
Hank AustinJan 14, 2012 I think Lincoln is gonna pick up all the old people that Cadillac has been trying so hard to shake off
Logan LeMonnierJan 13, 2012 I never thought the mk/mkx line was that ugly. Simple but not ugly. Why does everyone hate them so much
Kevin RehbockJan 13, 2012 Lincoln needs to ditch the MK crap. Alphabet soup nomenclature is god-awful like the rest of their lineup. They also need a new design language that kinda hearkens back to their 60s models. Oh, and a Mark IX flagship on a Panther platform replacement.
Maury L. MeredithJan 13, 2012 Lincoln bring back the old name plates. Also, you need to go back to your hay days and bring that brand back to market. I think the interiors are the best around;however, the big waterfall grills and small headlights don't cut it.
Lincoln, pilfer from your euro division. I'm sure you can do some badge engineering.
Duncan JolleyJan 13, 2012 Ford put a billion + dollars in their Lincoln line up to make them better, I can wait to see what Lincoln is going to have soon! And I think this is a pretty good looking car considering older Lincoln's. Stepping up.
Alex SmithJan 13, 2012 Ugly. And caddy over this. Any Mercedes over any caddy. (excluding CTS-V coupe)
Kyle McCulloughJan 13, 2012 This looks awful. I personally like the current styling, but this just doesnt look good at all
Henz HerreroJan 13, 2012 This car is rlly unattractive.. First the mkt then this..
Matt PiccoloJan 13, 2012 Ya their is not one Lincoln that I would want in this world... They think their compeating with caddy, I think their competing with no one cuz theirs no one nearly as bad as lincoln...and I hate caddy too
Alex LeuJan 13, 2012 Hate the grille but hey Lincolns are reliable
David JusticeJan 13, 2012 I agree Kent. I thought Lincoln was competing with Cadillac? With their crappy design themes, it looks like their target demographic is going to be older than Buicks. LOL
Kent SullivanJan 13, 2012 Just my opinion but I think Lincoln's are the ugliest cars on the road hands down. This is no exception

Boyd BoudreauxJan 13, 2012 The 140 didn't beat this, who picked? But I do have a good fix reskin this with the 140 concept and we're off to a good start. I'm a Chevy man, this is not a winner, 150 hp yeah rite!

Logan LeMonnierJan 13, 2012 Yeah jake. I'm sorry but seriously? I drive a jetta and I think it's girlier then a
truck but a beetle. They're still girls cars even now
Jake KnickmeyerJan 13, 2012 ...cont...I love the new styling. And my beetle was a chick magnet...unfortunately they thought I was gay at first but they learned. I would kill to have that car back.
Jake KnickmeyerJan 13, 2012 A 98 new beetle with a 5 spd was my first car. It was a really great car; great gas mileage, pretty good handling, and enough pickup for a 16 year old to be happy. The only bad thing about it was the fact that it used to be a girls car, not anymore..
Vincent ButlerJan 13, 2012 Colin I still wouldn't. Most ugliest car I've ever seen. Maybe The main reason I hate these cars so much, I see a lot of queeeeers driving them
Colin DzendoletJan 13, 2012 throw the Beetle R powertrain in there, and maybe, just maybe, ill take this concept seriously
Mario CallirgosJan 13, 2012 Who says the Porsche designers are lazy lol
Jeff BayuraJan 13, 2012 I think it looks really good, but notice how none of the people are looking at the car. Lol
Matt PiccoloJan 13, 2012 That's scary nice... For a beetle
Vincent ButlerJan 13, 2012 I still can't take these cars seriously. Just looks hideous
