Confirming widespread speculation, American Honda Motor Co. Inc. CEO Tesuo Iwamura told WardsAuto.com “We are developing it without any delay, so most probably we will have it in the period we already promised”. The car will arrive in 2010.

However, 2010 is at least a year later than the 2008-2009 time frame earlier set by Honda Motor Co. Ltd. CEO Takeo Fukui.

“We are now focused on the development of a new model to succeed the Acura NSX for a new era,” Fukui said in a July 2005 speech. “We would like to debut a new super sports car equipped with a V-10 engine in three to four years.”

Last January, Honda unveiled the Acura Advanced Sports Car concept (see photo below) at the North American International Auto Show, saying it hinted at the new Acura NSX.
