I love that damn car. The suit I can't see well enough to make a decision on one way or another, honestly. But it is awfully red.

That blurry suit looks awesome to me, I hope to see more soon.

hrm... Not sure what to think about the rider as we have so little to go on. But man that guy is RED.

The car looks cool but has to have a transformation gimmick in there some where. Either that or he literally has the WORST spoiler every conceived.

I definitely like the car, and from what I can see of Drive himself I like the overall look of the suit. Can't really make out the helmet that well though, unfortunately.

A part of me is hoping that they bring back the 600 yen Machine Robo toys(or Gobots for the Western world) for this as the key items.

The car appears to be a Honda NSX-T (Acura NSX-T in the US) with some interesting modifications.

The pictures make it hard to tell but I'm thinking it's a T based on the modified roof (easier to do with a removable panel) and what appear to be seal lines in the front and back at the top of the door windows (at the A and B pillars).

Other than the roof, it looks like they've touch just about every panel on the car (hood, rear deck lid, fenders, doors, rear quarters, both bumpers).

What's both interesting and odd about their selection of the NSX as the base car is it's no longer in production and is considered a modern classic. Never sold in large numbers, they can be hard to find in good condition (un-modified, not raced, etc) and weren't cheap.

So they picked a car they can't do cross promotional work with (as it's no longer in production), that was more expensive than many other sports cars and can expensive to repair.

So, yea, interesting but in a fun way. Makes me wonder if we won't see a Toyota Supra, Nissan R34 Skyline or Nisan S15 Silvia later in the series.

You forget that the new Acura NSX is still in development and should be released sometime next year. :P

I may pee my pants a little if they bring in some Nissan goodness. What if there's an old 90's Z as well??? Oh man; count me as sold on everything if they go this route!
