S2000 and New Skyline Replacement? Also New NSX - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

In a car magazine I was looking at over a buddies house, it was loaded with a bunch of talk about all new and future cars that are coming out. I found some information about these cars online.

It first talked about a new car that would be replacing the Honda S2000. It is called the Honda XGA.

The internal name given to the S2000s replacement is XGA. We had thought all along that the XGA would be a 4-door sports car showcasing Hondas SH-AWD system used in the RL and its advanced hybrid technology (remember the Dual Note concept car?). Well, now were hearing the companys leaning toward producing a coupe based on the RL platform, but equipping it with either the V8 or V10 for the NSX replacement. Honda will surely equip the luxury coupe with its SH-AWD system, creating a car that would match up with the likes of the Nissan GT-R. If the XGA & the next NSX make it to production as we foresee, it would mean that all of Hondas sporty cars would be AWD. Could Honda be trying to redefine the classic sports car formula, and change the way we think about sports cars and AWD? It’s a definite possibility because Honda has expressed that much confidence in the capabilities of the SH-AWD. The XGA will be front engined, and will look different from the RL, and it may go head-to-head with the GT-R. A hint of its styling may be seen in the Sports4 Concept shown at the Tokyo Motor Show. While its too early to tell when this car will be available, were sure that Honda is hard at work to reestablish its image as one of the worlds leading sports car makers. It shouldn’t be long after the end of the S2000s run that well start seeing exciting new stuff from this techno-driven company.

It showed something about the Nissan Skyline replacement called the Nissan GT-R

Lastly it talked about the newly redesigned NSX. This car is supposed to have a Acura Built Vtec V8 or V10 motor... Man a V8/V10 Vtec.. that is going to be sick.

In case you missed all the hype surrounding the GT-R, http://www.tristatetuners.com/forum/...ead.php?t=7164

The new NSX almost looks like a McLaren F1 to me.

IMO, the NSX looks better. Now I just hope it actually looks like that.
