Is that stupid f*cking shit piece of flash containing a Vauxhall Astra supposed to be there, or is the more story behind it?

I'm all for a V10 engine'd beast. Who cares if we're moving to V8's next year in F1, if a V10's good enough for the new 200mph M5, it's good enough for a Honda.

Here's hoping the new S gets a 2.4l V8 just like the new F1 cars, along with an F1 style atomising fuel pump plus some VTEC and kicks out at least 300 angry horses.

Car manufacturers need to draw more on their F1 expertise.

honda are not going to build the hsc.
they are going to stop building the nsx at the end of '05.
due to new emission regs.
in '06 they are building and shipping over 100 special nsx cars
and that will be it.
new model will then be produced. sorry for the bad news.

I think that was his point, he's talking about the NSX's 2008 replacement.

A V10 will be all well and good as long as it doesn't cost stupid money, then I might be able to buy a second-hand one in 2020
