So this morning I went out to the mailbox to find that I got a shiney new copy of the November Road & Track and HOLY SHIT!!1! on cover was the S3000! Standing in my entry way wearing nothing but my jammies and a pair of slippers I frantically thumbed to page 18 and...

All that was there was three short paragraphs of speculation. What a complete rip off!! You would think a cover story would have a bit more substance. R&T FTL

 

They thought the design study was cool to put it on the cover.

I'm all for that if it gives us more exposure.

 

I liked the part where they admitted to blending the picture from the S2000 and other new Honda open air concept (OAC or something like that). Total photochop on the cover - something I only expect on the cover the Comso.

Total letdown!!

 

I'm always let down as wel. HONDA NEEDS TO HURRY UP!!!

 

Did they make another chop from the back? Their "S3000" actually looks pretty good, wonder how they would do the back. Its a nice evolution of the current S. It'll never happen though, I already gave up hope long ago.

 

They said the S3000 is v6 and awd. I dont like, i think the S should be like supras,3000gts,rx7s,300z. Shortly produced so altho demand is till high there is no supply, which means we can sell our S for a **** load : )

 

The original concept R&T 'chopped is called the OSV. The OSV (the real one, shown as a concept at an autoshow recently) has great styling cues. It's horribly proportioned, however - a weak-assed (literally), bulbous-front, FWD vehicle.

An S2000 that's unchanged except for OSV-like styling cues would look super hot, IMO. Throw in a more powerful engine and Honda would have a killer car.

 

DUDE, scan the cover! I want to see it.

 

More of this ish FFS.

Here ya go (repost x100)

I think the front 3/4 of the concept looks great. Just change the trunk...I do not like the BMW influenced rear. Stay true to the S2000's characteristics, offer a coupe version, throw in the Acura RDX turbo motor with more performance/boost and call it a day!
