I hope everyone loved the NSX Concept that Acura unveiled early this year, because there is a good chance what we saw is exactly what we’ll get. According to several several sites, recent images filed by Honda from China’s patent office show an identical design to the NSX Concept. The Acura grille remains in place, as the new NSX will be branded and sold in China with Acura badging.

Whether or not the Chinese patent images are legitimate,  this past week there have also been rumors spreading that a “production” NSX will be revealed at the upcoming 2013 North American International Auto Show in January, and that the styling will stay true to the Concept.

The next-generation NSX is expected to go on sale within three years, likely as a 2015 model.
