Flip up lights are not allowed due to DOT mandates as far as I know.

I'd take an NA2 97-01 NSX over just about any other Japanese car.

Wow. It looks amazing at Geneva. I'm looking forward to see the NSX at NYIAS.

Wow holy crap, I just noticed that the C pillars are...separated? There's a gap between the cabin and the C pillar at the end... That's rather interesting...I'd like to be able to see that up close. If it is what I think it is, that is REALLY F***ING COOL. I'd like to see a bird's eye view of this car.

The 'flying buttresses'? Ferrari 599 has already done it. Something to do with aero?

Ah okay did not know. Yes, something to do with aero. The C pillars have a slightly mild slope, while the rear windshield seems to be angled just enough to prevent significant flow separation. The greenhouse seems to taper quite a bit in the back, I like that.

The Ferrari one has too steep of a rear windshield, so the effect should be slightly different.

Looks like a Mazda to me.. And this is aperantly me that thinks this.. Most likely going to be just as overrated as the last NSX's.. Always been an ugly car and just not that special.. I don't see the hype..

But great exhuast note, hope they keep that in final production
