I was going to when I got my R&T issue in, but I read the blurb and it's everything that's already been posted here umpteen times.

If Honda wants to sell more they would offer coupe version as well.

My feeling is this and this would play into the general direction Honda is going. I will venture a guess that there will be 2 engines/versions of the next S. One will be a serious track machine with a conventional drivetrain and the other will be a sports hybrid. F1 is going to have KERS next year. Honda likes to bleed racing technology into its autos....so it would not be a stretch to think the next S can be had with a gas/electric setup....not so much for improved mileage but for also straight-line performance.

I wouldn't mind seeing the car be sold with an auto too for more mass appeal.

Confirmed by whom? I wish it would get here by the end of 2009 as a 2010 model, but very much doubt it. 2 years away is still too long.
