More dis­ap­point­ment as the UK’s Auto­car mag­a­zine announces the “Advanced Sports Car Con­cept”, revealed back in Detroit in Jan­u­ary and largely con­sid­ered to be the new NSX, won’t be at the Tokyo Motor Show in October.

The con­cept shows a front-​​engine machine, though Honda aren’t say­ing any­thing at all about the engine’s dis­place­ment, whether it would be a V6, V8, V10, nat­u­rally aspi­rated or forced induc­tion. It is expected we’ll be kept hang­ing way into 2010, mean­ing Honda will be late to the game as Nis­san and Toy­ota gear up to release their Japan­ese super­cars; the GTR and L-​​FA respectively.
