Page 42, article by Pert Lyon reviews Japan dumping the 276 HP pact in October. The article follows with a line stating "Acura will again cross the line with a new NSX with at least 400 horses." Thought it was interesting to note.

Good Catch. I had not read that yet. So, according to Peter Lyon, there is still hope for a new NSX! And over 400HP! :smile:

I didn't even notice your error. Did you think my post was negative towards you somehow? I don't understand your

Maybe the explanation why Honda is actually waiting and not telling more than 300 hp for its HSC concept.

I am now sure Honda can throw a 135 hp/L engine and also a nice toy showing a power to weight ratio under 2,5 kg/hp.

Let's dream about such a 3,5 L NA V6 redlining at 10K !!!

But I still believe in a 3,8 L displacement V6...

Today's game is to show over 500 hp and there is no more fascination and exclusivity in claiming over 600 hp, while not common it is shared by more than a couple of different cars.



MESSAGE TO HONDA

Stop teasing us by serving only teaspoon of finest Champagne, we want a glass full of it!

We appreciate what you did with a 290 hp NSX @ 3,2 L and a 240 hp S2000 @ 2L, but now it is time to enter the major league and extending such great achievement in the 4 to 5 Liters realm.

Thanks in advance and I promise you to buy it if presented in a gorgeous package...

Another thing, why not offering now a paddle shifting option for the S2000?

This should convince more customers IMO.

Regards everybody!

If it comes out with 400 hp and is N/A, I'll go ahead and SC it.
