thats not the NSX thats a test mule body used from the s2k it's just an extended body on a nsx chassis and the motor is in the front.

New NSX will be V10 and front engine with SH-AWD. This car is just the test mule and the S2K body is cheaper than making something new. I agree with Neil, it won't be an NSX without a mid-engine. It'll be sick, but not the same.

Don't really like the look of it now, I think they should just update the old look. but if they're redesigning it for now i guess we'll see.

That's the point of test mules and camoflauge- you can't see what's underneath all the fake bodywork. Manufacturers need to test the car under true road conditions, but don't want anybody getting a peek at what the car is really like or how it looks. So they camoflauge them and/or give them fake bodies to fool the public.
