The 2010 Honda NSX through X-ray vision

November 19th 2008 22:32
2010 Honda NSX underpinnings


Rumour has it that the replacement for the Honda NSX won't arrive until sometime in late 2009 or early 2010 but when it does, expect it to come with a stonking F1-inspired 5.5-litre V10 engine developing some 418 kW according to the latest scoop from Auto Express.


The new Honda supercar will go head on against the likes of the Nissan GT-R, high-end Porsches, Ferraris, Lamborghinis etc. in both technological advancement and performance. The hi-tech 5.5-litre V10 mill will be mated to a six-speed semi-auto gearbox with steering wheel-mounted paddles for super fast shift times, while all 418 kW will be unleashed on the tarmac via all four wheels courtesy of Honda's Super-Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD) system.

This is enough to propel the second generation 'NSX' from 0-100km/h in under four seconds and onto a top speed of almost 300 km/h.

Video: Nissan 370Z at private gathering

November 16th 2008 22:05
2009 Nissan 370Z


Following Nissan’s release of three official images and the confirmation of some tech specs on the LA Auto Show website, some much anticipated video footage of the new 370Z has made its way onto Street Fire. Captured while at a private Z gathering in the US, the footage shows the likes of the 240Z, 350Z and even some GT-Rs for good measure.


The star of the show, however, was the 370Z and it didn't disappoint in blue and red liveries. While the jury is still out on those wraparound 'boomerang' style head- and taillights, the smaller but wider looking body with flared guards looks sensational.

The 2009 Nissan 370Z will be officially unveiled at the Los Angeles Auto Show on November 17.
