I recently read that Honda has dropped the concept "HSC" that debuted at the '03 tokyo autoshow. For packaging purposes, honda claims it will use a 10-cylinder engine instead of a V8. also, it will move toward a Front-Engine design... i sure as hell they know what they're doing, you can't fuck around with legend like this....

Yea, back when the NSX first came out, nearly 15 years ago, it was one of the most technogolically advanced cars out there. The problem was, they never updated it, & it turned into a $90,000 car with only 290 HP.
A VTEC V10 in the new version would be a sweet thing. Could very well make upwards of 600 HP if they tuned it correctly. I agree, the front engine design seems a little iffy, espically if they are planning a V10 upgrade. We'll have to wait & see for the final product though, hopefully it'll come into production before the end of the decade.

I read a press release where Honda hinted at V10 and possibly a mid-engine, all-wheel drive setup. Either way, I think the NSX wouldn't be the NSX without the mid-engine configuration.

Honda was a real gouber for keeping the NSX NA.
A 280hp $90K is a joke. i know about the agreement in Japan
Honda has continued to be hard headed with na powered FWD.
Each platform has a place.
the NSX should have shocased a SH-AWD drive train.
If they wanted to keep it na it should have veen a v10-v12
that would have blown peoples socks off.
280hp v6 x 2 = 520hp v12 with VTEC FI sound screeming in your ears.
But sadly no. They built it and walked away.
For a company who makes great cars.
It was criminaly stupid. How deff do you get when you run one of these companys.
