Geneva, 86th Salon de lAuto 2016 In December 2007, Honda announced plans to launch a NSX successor by 2010, based on the styling of the front V10-engined Acura ASCC Advanced Sports Car Concept.[5] Despite prototypes being tested for production, just a year later, Honda announced that plans had been cancelled due to poor economic conditions.[6] Instead, in March 2010, Honda unveiled the HSV-010 GT for participation in the Japanese SuperGT Championship. This car never reached production as a street-legal car. The production model was displayed three years later at the 2015 North American International Auto Show, for sale in 2016. Although the original name was retained, this time it was defined as `New Sports eXperience`.[8] Unlike the first generation NSX which was manufactured in Japan, the new NSX was designed and engineered in Marysville, Ohio, at Honda`s plant, by designer Michelle Christensen and chief engineer Ted Klaus.
