I have two opinions on this

1- that would be awesome- I love seeing developing technology, and I would love to see an awd coupe hybrid IF (big if here) they do it right.

2- I don't think it should be called an s2000 though. I don't think a new hybrid could do it justice. I'm not saying it wouldn't be really cool, I just don't think they should share the same name- two different animals

why give it an S designation if its a 2+2 and a coupe?

the article did say in "spirit than configuration" so it won't be called an S. either way it looks pukey...

They'll be building and marketing off of the S2000 image for some time to come. After all, that was the whole reason for the S2000 in the first place.

Looks nice! i'd get one if it came out.

from the A-pillar back, it looks very SLK-ish in my opinion
