the S2000 has a hp/weight of 0.083 while this new S1500 is only 0.668 which is about the same as the Mazda Miata's 0.666.
the price point is about right.

but was hoping for the S3000 like everybodys esle.

Good just makes the s2000 even more desirable.

Lets face it reason for stopping production on s2000 was low sales.
Honda wants to sell lots of their next s so they are gonna keep it around 20k.

I like the wheels. Its not bad but not an S2000. Will need mods.

Actually, the same insider that has been feeding us info on the NSX and CTR has stated categorically that this car is not a pipe dream. The design is ongoing and they are working on it. Whether we (or anyone) will ever drive it on the road is definitely a point of contention but this is not merely a dream - it's a physical project inside of Honda.

The rendering/photoshop is obviously a dream, though. Totally made up.

I reall dig the look. It's very much like the original S600-800. If it's not going to have more power and displacement then it should follow the original S-Cars more closely and use the 1,000 CC motor out of the CBR RR GP. I think that monster puts out like 175 HP! So - small displacement, hi rev, light weight. It wouldn't be overly fast but it would be lots of fun.
