The GR-1 Concept was at Cars and Coffee this morning as well as many other great cars from what I hear. The marques car was the NSX. I didnt go, I decided to sleep but I found this gallery and thought Id share.

I saw this at SEMA a couple years ago, and TBH, 'didn't really care for the looks of it too much. (sorry!) And, since I'd owned a Delorean with the bare stainless body, the thought that kept nagging me about it was, "Think of all the finger prints!!"

And, yes. I know. They'd never make a "production car" finished like that.
 
I still like our GT's shape much better. The GR-1 is narrower, shorter, but look bulkier than the GT at the same time. Here's my Heritage next to it.

Hey there,

Was there this past Saturday. Talk about drawing a crowd. When the car was pulled out of the building it was like a bunch of bees attracted to a pot of honey. Almost as bad as the crowd around the Veyron at the LA Auto Show a couple of years ago.

Interesting car - not sure I would want the polished exterior though. Have seen pictures of a painted one (looked like Tungsten) with white stripes. MUCH nicer looking.

Just my $.02 worth.
