New Honda NSX Concept GT Car Debut!

Subaru's mighty racing machines at 2011 Tokyo Auto Salon

Subaru's booth at the 2011 Tokyo Auto Salon has all the new tS models on display, as well as three STi concepts (earlier post), and some impressive racing machines. One of them is the Impreza WRX STi Nurburgring Edition 24H test car, which will compete in this year's race and Subaru aims to win its class.

Another impressive machine on display is the Legacy Super GT race car, powered by a Boxer engine, competing in the GT300 class.

Honda TS-1X and Sports Modulo NSX at 2011 Tokyo Auto Salon

The TS-1X has some fancy "floating flaps" as you will notice, but a press release hasn't been published yet explaining the actual use of them. In any case, it looks like Batman's CR-Z...

Honda displayed also some new items for the legendary NSX, including a Modulo carbon fibre spoiler, Modulo shocks, springs and even control arms. It's nice to see that Honda still supports old models! Now, what about the NSX successor Honda…?

The last scale model is...

The initial order included an Arta HSV-010 SGT500 2010 SUZUKA 700km Winter model, but that was before the end of the 2010 Super GT championship. As you will know though, the Weider HSV-010 won the GT500 title and therefore, I swapped the Arta model for the Weider one. As a model of the winning car, it's special since it comes with the signatures of both drivers!

Honda at 2011 Tokyo Auto Salon

The 2011 Tokyo Auto Salon opens in a couple of days, at Makuhari Messe in Chiba, and Honda just announced that Honda Access will display a TS-1X test study model based on the CR-Z.

Also on display are accessorized production cars and motorcycles, along with a variety of specially designed vehicles to show the playful nature of customization, such as the Freed Spike caravan car, the Acty Truck and the Enepo generator special coloring editions.

Oh, the HSV-010 GT machine, which won both the driver and team titles for the Super GT Series GT500-class races, will be there as well!
