Neal's Fantasy Factory Fabricates the 2017 Acura HSX Hybrid Concept


I thought I'd try something a bit more "extreme" and controversial this time around. I've always liked Acura's SUV-X concept (except for the color) and how they designed the front end is a pretty unique interpretation of the plenum theme. I recently saw an old Audi 80 3-door which to this day is still looking sharp. And the auto shows have had some cool 2+2 concepts lately, so I was looking at those, too. I'm sure some will have strong opinions about this rendering, but it makes for an interesting re-interpretation of the Acura "hot hatch". A date of 2017 suggests it's a bit more futuristic and longer "down the road".





=====================

Neal's Fantasy Factory Wagon-izes the TLX Concept

http://vtec.net/news/news-item?news_item_id=1178489

Neal's Fantasy Factory has been running at full capacity, lately turning three shifts just to meet demand for the wildly successful CLX Coupe. The CLX's broad appeal is not a surprise in the North American marketplace, where coupes have long been hot sellers, but now the Fantasy Factory decided to venture out into more dangerous territory - the Sport Wagon.

Sport Wagons are generally loved by enthusiasts, but seem to be a tougher sell to the general audience, losing out to tippy crossovers and sport utes. As someone who recently endured the 2014 Atlanta Snowpocalypse, where I witnessed endless scenes of crossovers, pickup trucks, and sport utes resting on their roofs in ditches, I personally prefer to stay closer to the ground, in a lighter weight, more agile vehicle, such as my TSX Sportwagon. I would love to add SH-AWD and at least 50% more horsepower to the TSX Sportwagon's equation. With the ability to leverage the upcoming TLX's power train, this TLX Wagon concept could be the ticket. Just like the CLX, we could see a range of engines starting with the TLX's naturally aspirated 2.4L 4-cylinder, progressing up to a 280hp 2.0L VTEC Turbo, then on to a N/A 3.5L V6, and ultimately a turbocharged V6, hooked to a next-generation SH-AWD system. Oh, and a 2-motor hybrid option would be dandy as well.

Does all of this sound a little bit far fetched? Perhaps. But remember, Neal's Fantasy Factory is grid-neutral, powered entirely by dreams.

Wallpapers!

Don't worry. The TLX Wagon's upholstery is scotchguarded at the factory. The only options are desktop wallpapers, offered in 5 different sizes. Choose and save the desired size in the links below.

Neal's TOV Fantasy Factory Fabricates the Fabulous 2016 Acura CLX!




Over the years, there have been rumors concerning whether or not Acura would ever revive the CL coupe. These rumors have continued on into recent years, though we've never heard anything concrete from reliable sources. Well, perhaps this gorgeous CLX coupe concept (clearly derived from the TLX Prototype that was revealed last week in Detroit) will be enough to convince the powers-that-be that it's again time for Acura to have a proper coupe in the lineup.

Imagine a CLX Type-S, with SH-AWD, a turbocharged 3.5L V6 (does 450hp sound good?), offered with your choice of either a 9-speed automatic transmission or a 7-speed manual transmission. At a lower price point, we could see an "entry level" high performance version sporting a ~300hp 2.0T, along with SH-AWD and 6MT or 7DCT. Of course there would be more mainstream versions offered, with milder 4- and 6-cylinder engine tunes.

Are we dreaming? Probably, but that's what Neal's TOV Fantasy Factory is all about.

Wallpapers!

This CLX Concept looks too good NOT to be featured as your desktop wallpaper. Neal has you covered there. Click and save the appropriate size in the links below.

Neal's Fantasy Factory imagines a sub-NSX luxury coupe. Is Acura currently working on one?

Neal crafted this rendering this week. He calls it the SSX and imagines it to be a "sub-NSX" performance luxury coupe along the lines of the Lexus IF-S Coupe, Jaguar F-Type Coupe, Audi's 2010 Quattro Concept and Kia's recent GT4 Stinger. Neal sees this SSX as a sort of an evolution of Acura's Advanced Sports Car Concept from several years ago. This SSX concept is not supposed to be the OTHER "sub-NSX", of which rumors have been circulating throughout the Japanese "scoop" magazines over the past month. THAT car sounds pretty interesting, with a rumored MR layout (one of TOV's own rumor sources says that Honda is planning to use the transverse MR chassis that was under development for the upcoming NSX - recall that Honda scrapped that configuration and now the new NSX will use a chassis with a longitudinal MR configuration).

We know, it's getting difficult to keep up, and if we are to believe these Japanese scoop mags, there's apparently a LOT more in the works on the Honda Sports Car front. With that said, we wanted to mention something that we heard from one source a little while ago, and then coincidentally, a completely different source tipped us off to the same bit of information today, which tells us there might be some substance to what we were initially told. And this is the fact that Acura is in fact working on a new luxury sport coupe. We have heard that they are benchmarking cars like BMW's 435i and M4. The latest info we received is that we could see this new coupe as soon as next year.

Note that this rendering from Neal is completely unrelated to this rumored coupe, but it was an interesting coincidence to have these renderings come in along with this new tip.

Neal's Fantasy Factory Forges a "Lean-Muscle" V8 GT Coupe Concept

Neal's Fantasy Factory imagines an elegant, "Lean-Muscle" V8 GT coupe. Neal calls it the GTX. Could this live between the lofty NSX and a more affordable coupe option, like the TLX/CLX coupe concept the Fantasy Factory cranked out just 1 year ago.?

Neal's Fantasy Factory Imagines a new Honda MR Sports Concept


Neal's Fantasy Factory Honda MRX Concept debuts ahead of NYAS!


Honda's apparently got something big brewing this week for their Wednesday afternoon press conference at the 2015 New York Auto Show. We think we have a pretty good idea of what it's all about, but Honda's been uncharacteristically tight lipped in the days leading up to the show, so maybe even we will be surprised.

Until then, here's a concept that Neal cooked up. He sees this mid-engined sports concept as being positioned to go head to head against the likes of the Porsche Cayman or Alfa Romeo's 4C.

The first iteration of this MRX concept image had the MRX painted in blue, but then Neal refined the design a bit and decided to change the color. In his words: "I remembered a story about Honda's first F1 car and how it was originally supposed to be painted gold. There was a problem with the paint and that's how Championship White was born - so I'm calling this "Championship Gold." I thought I'd try something different this time around - a thoroughly modern Honda sports car in a classic color."

Something like this could potentially be motivated by a version of the upcoming Civic Type-R's 310ps 2.0-liter VTEC Turbo engine.

Neal's Fantasy Factory Tantalizes with the Acura TLX "2020 Vision" Concept:

http://www.vtec.net/news/news-item?news_item_id=1282788

It's been a minute since TOV Art Director Neal McDaniel has presented one of his concepts here, but this "Vision" of a 2020 Acura TLX Concept was worth the wait.

Imagine this with a compact and efficient twin turbo V6 in an FR configuration, with optional front axle eSH-AWD for yaw control and improved foul weather performance.
