Looking forward to it!
I loved the NC spyder concept so much! I am going to try and get as close to it as I can with a NB without panel modifications, using a SRD speed racer decklid and custom made bikini top.

Pic from a mate attending SEMA. Speedster looks really rad.

Expect them to show up soon? Really? I'm guessing you're being cynical, rjastra.
Spyder at SEMA 2011:
Superlight at SEMA 2009:

And there is plenty of earlier history of NAs and NBs with the windscreen lopped off. No, I don't think these 2015 SEMA concepts are meant to showcase anything in the way of future developments for the ND.

Not sure how practical it is to have no windscreen on a roadcar, if given the opportunity I would buy a used Aerial Atom instead

That applies to most concepts in general, doesn't it?
It's like an artists sketch of world peace and harmony, nice vision and imagery but who want's to put the effort in to produce it?

You do realise that the specs for the above car match the ND 1.5 with regards weight and power. They stripped weight out and biZarrely matched it with the 125HP 1.8l engine.

Because it's a concept car for which they gave approximately zero cares about? It's there to look cool on a stand. That's it.
