Honda’s answer to the Nissan GT-R and Lexus LF A hit the ring earlier this week when our spies caught a black and white clad NSX prototype powering round the circuit. We had been questioning what kind of performance we can expect from Japan’s newest supercar but now those questions have been answered after information has surfaced that Takeo Fukai, CEO of Honda demanded the development team build an NSX that is faster than both its Japanese rivals.

That would be cool, but when was the last time Honda/Acura "wowed" us w/ their stock power output.

I'm not saying it won't happen, I'm just not getting my hopes up... The NSX only has 270hp, and I know that is not the point of the NSX, it's a handling/aero machine but... I'm just saying, I don't plan on being shocked by Honda's power numbers.

Toyota/Lexus, however, I would not be surprised if something ridiculous comes out.
