NSX Mule at Nurburg
A couple of pictures of the NSX Mule taken at Nurburg the week before last:
When I first saw them I thought it was a 2000 .. but its longer !
Anyway Im sure you saw similar pics in an AutoMag recently - one thing I did note was what sounded like a waste gate sound when changing gear - could this be a turbo ?
If it is F/I then it would be very interesting, I haven't heard any F/I NSX rumours.

Great to get some "local" pictures and first hand info.
I would not take the turbo too seriously as they had turbo NSXs before the final one.
As disscused on prime they will probably target the same group of people that bought the NSX back in 1990 and they are in their 50s now, looking for a GT type of car.
I would even go as far as saying they will make it a lazy cruiser with a soup up J37A1 from the MDX!

Where is Detlelf, our man at the ring to tell us what is under the bonnet?
Can't tell from the pics, whether the car is front engined or mid engined. Or whether this is the next S2000 or NSX, or hopefully a completely new model.
Nothing wrong with turbos I guess. Probably will be the best way in the future to have powerful engines and fuel economy/emissions. Motorway cruising can be done at little to no boost, while increasing boost when it's needed.
And the weight is kept down with a small engine.
