Acura NSX Roadster Concept Rendered by TopGear

TopSpeed renders a roadster version of the NSX Concept based on recent patent sketches and spyshots from the Avengers movie set. The look works well with the design of the concept, only time will tell if Acura will actually build an open-top version of the NSX.

Here’s an original artist sketch of the NSX Concept from Acura’s design studio. The contrasting shades of blue and red really work well to bring out the angles and edges in this artistic portrayal of the vehicle. There’s also a hint of the interior shown, but with a limited view it’s easy to pass it off as just a filler design.

You won’t have any trouble finding photos of Acura’s gorgeous new NSX Concept. A Google image search using the “past week” button will compile an endless amount of pages with images covering every angle and inch of the silver NSX.

While silver is usually best to bring out the lines and curves of a vehicle, seeing the same car in a darker color can give off a totally different aura. I went ahead with a photoshop job on the silver NSX Concept and painted on a new dark metallic gray color. Needless to say, I ended up with one fierce looking Acura.

Tony Stark might be getting his in red, but I think Bruce Wayne will be looking to get this one as his newest toy.

The above rendering from Auto Express shows a modified “Avengers Roadster“ which removes the Acura styled grille and adds Honda badges. Auto Express also predicts the new NSX will be powered by a hybrid V6 with over 400bhp which should push it from 0-62 mph in under five seconds.

We’ll get more official details on all future Acura vehicles at the press conference on January 9th, so continue to check back often.

Next Generation NSX Rendering by Walt Merchant

Acura will unveil the next generation NSX Concept at the 2012 North American International Auto Show next month, but if you’re looking for a sneak peak you’ll be hard-pressed to find any official photos.

Fortunately Automobile Magazine brings us Walt Merchant’s rendition of the future vehicle shown above. Again, this is NOT an official rendering but it does preview much of the same front end characteristics seen in the Avengers Roadster which is rumored be similar to the concept car.

Automotive News also shows their artist’s rendering of the NSX  in a post shown here, though I’ve heard it’s a poor representation of the actual concept we will see in Detroit.

“The Super Sports concept will follow the Small Sports EV Concept that will be unveiled at this week’s Tokyo motor show. The Super Sports design will be shown at the Detroit show in January and will form a halo model that suggests a spiritual successor to the NSX.” – Autocar 

Not surprisingly, Autocar expects that a hybrid/electric powertrain will be utilized as well as an all-wheel-drive system. Above is a very rough concept rendered by an Autocar artist. 

With no official announcement yet, I don’t think we have to be reminded to take all NSX revival rumors with a grain of salt.

UPDATE: Jeff of Temple of VTEC has reported from Tokyo that there may be some be some “BIG” news coming at around 8PM EST. Stay tuned!
