Maybe a NSX GT3 RS in the future?
Yeah, the strap in interesting, but I personally think it's tacky touch to the car.

Although, I feel this like a spaceship controller in the beamer lol



Anything is possible tho, even if they decide to create a NSX GT3 RS in the future

|\|SX Yeah that's going to be far different from what any model for the road will be like. Just have a look at what the interior of any high performance GT designation car has, one you can buy, like a Porsche 911 GT3 and BMW M4 GT3. There's likely to be similar things going on in an NSX for the road... NSX Type R, NSX GT3, whatever. What would be cool are straps like this to close the door:

That interior was designed for racing...That's why it's so sparse and without the creature comforts you're used to and not meant for retail.

The NSX could be a one off Halo car since that was what it was originally designed for but we may see a RWD version with the NSX GT3 leading the way. Not sure if it'll be more powerful.

1fastAcura Now Acura just needs to do what Porsche does and offer a range of different performance versions of the NSX, even taking a page out of what Jaguar did with the F-Type R and AMG GT R (or will be doing since its not out yet). In other words we need something like the 911 GT3... offer in the NSX.

And the hood vents seems to have been replaced with a carbon fiber vent/indent in the middle. could be more effective for cooling but again, it looks a bit chunky to me.

What is nice is the paint scheme on the GT3 but that's pretty much it for me.
I only like it if it was on the tracks, but yeah I would agree if it was for a daily drive, then the original nsx would be nicer.

The color combo is nice, wish they didn't add that logo. I still can't get over that.

RedNSX Problem is, once they removed the road car's three-electric motor hybrid system they also lost 73hp since it's just relying on the 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6. Acura will have to tune the car or mod it to make up for those missing ponies and when they do, the rest of the NSX owners will have a frame of reference for what they can do on their own NSx for more power.

Same here. What else do you add to the car?

Yeah I definitely agree!

The logo needs to be GONE! it just kills it.
