Mazda Furai vs Honda NSX
The futuristic weapon from Mazda looks as if it is not street legal. But infact it is, it was made by Mazda to fill in the the gap between super cars and track cars, being barely on the edge being a track car but still a super car. Although it is made street legal, the Furai can be used as a race car as well, with nearly the power of a race car under its hood. It is a match for even the fastest street legal cars like Lamborghini or Bugatti. The FuraThe Mazda Furai (マツダふうらい Mazda Furai) was a concept car revealed on 27 December 2007 and manufactured by Mazda. A teaser image of the vehicle was released on 11 December 2007.

The Furai (風籟 Fūrai), meaning "sound of the wind", was the fifth and last of the Mazda Nagare line of concept cars that have been made by Mazda since 2006. The chassis was based on the Courage Compétition C65 Le Mans Prototype that Mazda last used to compete in the American Le Mans Series, two seasons previously[3] and was designed to use E100 ethanol fuel, it was powered by a new generation 20B 3-rotor wankel engine that put out 450 brake horsepower (340 kW). The engine was developed and built by renowned rotary tuner, Racing Beat, who also built the car's rotary-shaped muffler canister.
The car wore the number 55, that of its 1991 24 Hours of Le Mans-winning ancestor, the 787B. Unlike many concept cars, the Furai was fully functional and was tested at various tracks. It ran at Laguna Seca and Buttonwillow.

2017 Honda NSX. If you’ve been awaiting the arrival of the new NSX supercar, there is a good news for you. Acura has confirmed that production of NSX hybrid supercar will be started at spring of 2016. And the new NSX will come as a 2017 model. But Honda isn’t saying when sales will actually start, altough saying that NSX price will be around the $ 150,000.
The new NSX engine is both unique and modern. This hybrid supercar will be powered by a twin-turbocharged V-6 engine combined with three electric motors which can make a peak output somewhere close to 550 horsepower. A nine-speed dual-clutch transmission and all-wheel drive technology will put the power down to the road.
The NSX is amazing car but it can't be compared with the edginess of the Furai .
