Additionally I'd love it to have some level of exotic appeal like the 4c or Cayman, but id be totally ok if they made it more tame looking in the interest of some level of practicality like making it have a useable hatch.
We all know what the S2000 holds; Honda needs to exceed that storage amount like they need to exceed everything else the S2000 does.

Alfa needs to do the same on storage. I don't know their timeline on a new Spyder or a "6C", but if either come out with the V6 Biturbo, game over! That'll be near impossible car to beat between in the segment. Can Sergio pull it off?

If it had an s2000 truck I would be ok with that.

I guess Honda just decided to stop pretending to build real sports cars, and is straight up building virtual cars for us now, huh?

I swear, some people will find the negative side of anything. "Oh, it's not real, so Honda still sucks." Enjoy it for what it is or move on in life. Sheesh.

In case you haven't realized it, this car very closely matches patent images from a patent Honda filed a while ago.

I can understand that if you’re somebody who enjoys playing GT and Forza... but personally I’ve always found those games to be pretty uninteresting, you know?

I don't even play video games. I just enjoy driving light weight cars. Don't get me wrong, I would greatly prefer a 6 speed to a paddle shifter, but 2000 lbs is a WIN.

Just to be clear - since you don't play video games, you'll never drive this car. This exists in a video game only.

If Honda built such a car, and it hit 60 mph in 4 seconds with a manual transmission, or hit 60 mph in 3 seconds with a DCT, the choice for me would be very easy. Manual transmission all the way.
