The front is growing on me with those hi res pics.

Terrible car unveiling. I wonder how much longer we have to wait before they bring the live feed back.

Every single person is saying, "great, now do more about the car and not the music"

Looks like it could be turbo friendly as long as you rip out all the emissions crap modern cars require these days.

God I love living in a place that requires no emissions.

Cool to see the entire engine behind the steering rack, like an S2000. In 15 years when the ND is a cheap track rat it will make engine swaps a lot easier

Edit: is that an electric power steering pump hanging off the front of the rack? sweeeeeet

No specs at all. Lol at the guy saying "I dragged that out as long as I could" before they killed the mic.

The interior seems to be very cool. The tach was huge and in the center and there was basically nothing but 3 ***** and the screen. There were USB plugs and such in the lower part, but other than that, it looked very clean.

+1 awful unveiling with the USA feed.

The car looks good so far. The tail lights are the biggest stylistic departure to me. The front end looks NC evolution, which is fine.

I love how mid-engine the car is. The polar moment looks nice n tight, just the way I like it.
