So I was cruising the net reading about the increasingly frequent rumors about a turbocharged Honda production engine (namely a 2.2 or 2.4L turbo) when I came across this...

Supposedly this is the NSX-R GT. 5 units will be built total. Rumored engine is a turbo 3.2L sporting 500 hp. The chassis is a widebody but not sure if it will be lighter than the regular NSX-R II (28xx lbs). It looks as if Honda is just doing this so they can properly homologate their JGTC car. Want one? Do you have $500k? Um...yeah. For that money this car had better have the cantilever suspension of the JGTC car. Oh, and it should weigh like 2500 lbs.
For the life of me this is shocking but maybe this is a result of having Takeo Fukui at the helm. Maybe the powers that be at Honda have finally decided to start letting it hang out.
