2009 Mugen NSX RR Concept news, pictures, and information

Even though the next generation of the Acura NSX and its potential successor has been officially scrapped, Honda's long-time motorsports partner Mugen has created a very exotic one-off concept of the NSX. It is dubbed the Mugen NSX RR and it has been given several significant updates over its NSX sibling. Its length has been stretched to 177.95, which is about four-inches more than the original NSX version, produced from 1994 through 2005. It has been widened by 5.5-linches and both carbon fiber and aluminum body panels have been fitted. The car rides on very attractive rims with upgraded brakes and a GT-style body kit. There is a new rear wing, hood-scoop and diffusers. The stock 3-liter V6 engine is mated to a revised six-speed manual gearbox which handles the 350 to 380 horsepower and sends it to the rear wheels.

It made its debut at the 2009 Tokyo Auto Show.
