I don't understand the dislike for the interior. I think it's a fantastic looking, clean, timelessly modern design. It's a good example of "less is more" philosophy. A lot of people also criticize the current gen NSX interior, but I think it's a beautiful design as well.

i think the real problem is that the new NSX has absolutly nothing to do with the original, except for the name. It is just a desperate marketing strategy to make money fast. I think the same thing happened to the Corvette, they just took everything the Corvette was and then threw it all away

The same thing will happen with the NSX, let alone that it is already fast in its first base version. It would only get faster as it is obvious it has loads of potential. Let's take a moment to welcome the 4th production hybrid supercar ever built and the first Japanese brand to launch its first hybrid supercar.
