Not sure what I think about the new NSX yet... Wonder how much they threw at the worlds biggest Porsche fan to get him to do this?

Geh commercial, maybe the shorter one will be funnier. This is the Super Bowl leak.

So the tally so far:

1. Dog's barking Star Wars for Volkswagen
2. Ferris Bueller Honda CRV
3. Seinfeld Vs Leno Acura

Good year for superbowl commercials... especially since the game's going to be a snoozer :lol:

I've got big plans for Walmart shopping during the Superbowl

Looks like I will use the DVR to just record the commercials (esp Beckham's :eyebrows: )

I read that Honda spent $50 million just on the sound of the exhaust. No doubt its probably worth every penny but DAMN!

Honda restarted the nsx project 4 times and like Lexus did dump 50 mill to get the sound of the car right. This also means Mishibishi super car will become more then a demo too! And Honda also said a new lower cost sport car (s2k blooded) will be considered for 2015 I can't wait to test drive the Nsx if close to the LFA ill be a happy test driver, I know 8 people on the list already

i am always on the lookout for a older NSX but depending how this goes it might turn into what the movies did to the Supra......

The new 2012 Porsche 911 will decimate all competition. I rode in the new one and it is incredible.

NOOOOOO! Not this again! :lol: No way the NSX will hang with the Porsche, but....

GTR Black
Horsepower – 545 horsepower @ 6,400 rpm
Torque – 463 lb-ft of torque @ 3,200-5,800 rpm
0-60 mph : 2.9 s

911 Trubo S
Horsepower - 530 horsepower @ 6,250 rpm
Torque - 516 lb.-ft. (Porsche didnt publish what rpm)
0-60 mph: 3.1 s

Stock numbers published by each manufacture. On the track the GTR makes the Porsche look like a little girl.

Takes some queues from the Audi R8 I think, a little bit. But very cool, I like it much more. Unfortunately (as often with production vehicles), the wheels are horrible!

Yeah, the commercial is semi-ghey, and everyone already hates Leno, heh. Old NSX's are still commanding too-high prices it seems. AT LEAST high $20k's for decent mileage ones, ugh.

I haven't seen the Ferris Buehler commercial yet...

AWD hybrid vs MR, think I'd prefer the old NSX to the new.

+1 I do dig the older NSX's.

I love that Jay and Jerry's biggest dilema in their lives is who gets a new toy to put in their 200 car garage.

Yep. Life is rough for some.
