-> What the...is this?

^ This is a slap to the face of its founder who created the original, daddy S (S360, S500, S600, & S800).

-> I don't see the point of creating this car. It make me angry really!

 

meh don't believe it... only believe it when hits the showroom.

 

Don't you know Elvis is alive too?

 

What's wrong with IMA and AWD. More MPG and less 'crashed my s2k' stories. It is good news to me. Atleast its a sport car from honda.

 

About as likely to be the next S2000 as a rebodied Ridgeline.

 

yeah I wouldnt put much weight on anything in CarSCOOP. 99.9% tripe in that magazine.

 

What's wrong with IMA (integrated motor assist, right?) and AWD?

Added weight, added complexity, added cost, driver necessarily more removed from feeling the response at the road (steered front wheels being driven).

It would be a "new S2000" about like a front-engined rwd V10 Honda uber-Corvette would be a "new NSX".

I'd MUCH MUCH rather see a lighter-weight and simpler 10k rpm 1.6 liter S1600 with a manual steering rack

For the S, I'm all for improved efficiency, but do it by making it lighterweight and simpler, not by making it more complex and heavier (which hybridization and awd would do).

 

Well, either way.. That car looks sexy.

 

I thought I read in Automobile magazine that the next-gen S2000 has been scrubbed?

 

The day I get awd is the day I've thrown in the towel as a driver, IMO. I respect awd, and I would love to have one in my dd, but I don't want it in my sports car.
