    Well I highly disagree with the premise of your question and I’ve stared at it far longer than you I’m assuming so no I don’t think it matters.

    Have you seen one in person?

    Doesnt look good in any photos. But it looks much much nicer in the flesh.

    i have seen a few in person. maybe it depends on the color. but it doesnt flow in a way i would like. the design elements of it appear disjointed. it looks too short and stubby to me.
    the original one had a distinctive look, and you knew what the silhouette was. the new one is just not memorable in the same way.

    i can respect the performance, but to buy it, i would have to like the shape.

    I can't recommend any car more. It would be a change from an NA v12 Fezza though.

    I think the proportions are spot on.

    Agreed to an extent. Colour matters alot. We have ours matte black. I really like it. Not sure I would if red or white. But matte black xpel stealth it looks good. Ill post some pics

    I traded my 360 in for one plus loan. I loved the 360 initially but eventually fell out of love with it. Too old. Too slow. Very in your face. Not my type of car i figured out. Couldnt drive it anywhere.

    Acura much more comfortable. Faster. Discrete in my opinion. Doesnt sound as good. Looks are a draw. Never driven an Fcar V12 so tough to say.

    Matte black really compliments the lines of the car. I'm pleasantly surprised!:)

    Exactly. I havent seen the car in any other colours but this setup makes it look really appealing to me

    I saw one in Valencia Red and it was beautiful. The color worked perfectly (IMO).

    Agreed. The proportions, in person, are the very first thing i feel in love with ... much like the Lambo Huracan, to my eyes. Most other performance cars are getting too "long" nowadays ... with seemingly endless overhang in the front, and extension in the rear.

    Not just your opinion :) the new NSX, in Valencia Red Pearl ... in person, if not photos ... is just about the most beautiful car on the market right now, to these eyes.

    Also, that's not a matte black wrap, it's xpel stealth over stock Berlina Black.

    A few pictures of mine. Just back from a full wrap using LLumar Platinum (same as SunTek Ultra) and window tinting. Plus ceramic coating.

    The 360C was my last fun car and the NSX replaces it. The Ferrari was so much fun on track, but so much work too, not to mention expensive with tires, brakes, etc. And my wife loved it too from the passenger seat! Glad to have a new car to replace it.

    The NSX has full leather seats which I wanted - wife more so. Pretty rare seats so that narrowed it down to this car. All options except no wing. No finance requirement to get the $30k, it was cash incentive off the deal price. Awesome.

    I had a 1992 gen1 back in the 90s. White/black. Exactly like the 1992 that just sold in the classified section. Fun car.

    Looking forward to some seat time.

    Then:

    Now:
    Still has factory seat covers and protective tape pieces on it.
    I asked them not to touch it after we settled on the deal.

    The new NSX is a pretty car and I liked the colour and rims on the car Jerry Seinfeld gave Super Dave. Wish it had a clutch option ;). Beautiful.
