New Acura NSX to Be Built & Engineered in the U.S.


 
At the 2012 Detroit Auto Show this week Acura finally took the covers off a concept car previewing the replacement for its cherished NSX supercar.

At the unveiling Acura also took the opportunity to announce that the new NSX will go on sale within three years, but the big shocker was the announcement that the car is to be engineered by Honda R&D Americas and built at a special plant in central Ohio.

The original Acura NSX was built at Honda plants in Japan from 1990 to 2005.

Rest assured, the project is in safe hands as the man running Honda today, Takanobu Ito, was one of the chief engineers of the original NSX and he’s determined that the new car is done right. You’ll recall that Acura’s previous attempt at building the NSX successor as a powerful, front-engined GT failed miserably due to the automaker’s financial situation at the peak of the 2008 global financial crisis.

This time around Acura will be staying true to the ethos of the original. That is, to seek performance through efficiency.

"Like the first NSX, we will again express high performance through engineering efficiency," explained Ito. "In this new era, even as we focus on the fun to drive spirit of the NSX, I think a supercar must respond positively to environmental responsibilities."

In particular, engineers developing the car at Honda R&D Americas’ center in Raymond, Ohio will focus on an extremely favorable power-to-weight ratio. They have chosen to stick with a V-6 and lightweight, mid-engine platform, but will be packing it with the latest hybrid technology and an all-wheel drive system.

Utilizing a unique twin-motor electric drive setup with a bilateral torque adjustable control system, the special hybrid all-wheel-drive system will be able to instantly generate negative or positive torque to the front wheels during cornering.

Acura anticipates that the system, dubbed “Sport Hybrid SH-AWD”, will deliver handling performance unmatched by previous all-wheel drive systems. In addition to the handling benefits of the Sport Hybrid SH-AWD system, a powerful V-6 engine with direct-injection and VTEC works together with a dual clutch transmission integrated with a third electric motor for powerful yet efficient acceleration.

WORLD'S RAREST CAR, 1954 Concept Old's Rocket F88




This is the car that in 1954 could have "killed" the Corvette. Chevrolet, being GM's big sales and profit division, campaigned to GM to "kill" this car. When Chevy was coming out with its 6-cyl. sports car with its 2-speed "powerglide" transmission and side curtains, here was a sports car from Olds with a big old V-8 and power windows.
So, GM said no to Oldsmobile on building this car.
The world's rarest automobile: a 1954 Concept Old's Rocket F88 - the only one in existence. (read the story below)
John S. Hendricks, (Discovery Communications founder) paid in excess of 3 million to acquire this 1954 Oldsmobile F-88 Convertible Concept Car .
After spending decades as a collection of parts stuffed into wooden crates, the F-88 was reassembled. In 1954 the F-88 was a Motorama Dream Car and was one of only two, or an unconfirmed possible three, ever created. The F-88 seen here is literally the only car left of its kind and was sold to John and Maureen Hendricks at the prestigious Barrett-Jackson Auto Auction in Scottsdale , Arizona , for an unbelievable $3,240,000. This acquisition made automotive history and is the cornerstone of the Gateway Colorado Automobile Museum in its own special room in a rotating display worthy of the F-88!

Camaro, stolen in New Jersey in 1975, recovered in California

Sometimes things do workout.......

Janice Maffucci had given up on ever seeing her 1969 Chevy Camaro SS again. After all, it was stolen back in 1975.

So when California cops called recently to tell her they'd found the hot rod, she hung up on them a few times, thinking it was a prank.

"I never thought that this would ever happen," Maffucci said.

But it did, and here's how: In February, Keith Williams, a car enthusiast from Santa Maria, Calif., bought the classic muscle car on eBay from a Tennessee seller for $28,000. But he soon noticed some features that he knew were inconsistent with the original model. For instance, the original six-cylinder engine had been replaced with a 427 V-8, and other parts seem to come from different sources.

So Williams contacted the California Highway Patrol (CHP). CHP officers used identifying numbers on the car to find its original VIN number. And when they ran the number, they found that it matched the one for a butternut yellow Camaro stolen in Newark, New Jersey -- on July 8, 1975.

The cops called Maffucci, who was listed as the owner. She told them the car had been stolen from outside the post office where her father worked.


"I still can't believe it, but I think it's just great," Maffucci told KSBY, a local California TV station. She said she plans on selling it, though Williams is no longer interested in buying.

Williams had insured the purchase, so he'll get his money back, though not the $875 he paid to transport the car. Still, he said it's worth it. "I got a great story to tell my grand-kids," he told the TV station.

The CHP is still working to try to find out who might have stolen the car.

The 1969 Chevy holds an almost iconic place in American muscle-car culture. The narrator of "Racing in the Streets," Bruce Springsteen's 1978 ballad about a washed-up New Jersey drag racer, drives a "'69 Chevy with a 396, fuelie heads, and a Hurst on the floor." And a rival is said to drive a Camaro.
