Nice. The side shot reminds me of the Alfa sypder of a few years ago.

please tell me this ain't the new s2000. Horrible, looks bloted too short.
I think the obnly nice thing about this car is the front end. Other than they need to go back to the rawing board. They should consider rather doing a hard top roadster. Take the Solstice for instance. A ugly car to say the elast but with a hard top it looks a bit better.

always wanted to cruise on my hometown with two baby hobbits at the back...

rawr, I like the looks of this car. Why couldn't all small economy cars look this nice?

It would be nice, but the silhouette from the side, on the top side is too round, needs to be sleeker.

it definately wont be the s2000, will be something like the new Del Sol

haha wow some of you have no idea what honda has to go through here lol. Seriously i'd love to see any of you haters design a better car, or even interior. However, this is a very...."non" S2000 kinda car, but also this is only a concept. They'll only take design cues from this and use it (hopefully). I personally hate car companies that "join" the rear lights though. cheap, ugly. hopefully they use the front 3/4 part of this car for the S2000. it's gonna be hard for them to make a car as good as the current S2000.

Nice, this is a cute sports car by honda. I think that the future of Budget sports cars should be more like this with petrol prices flying.

pfft, have you ever even calculated to figure out how much you spend per year on gas? The way people talk about it, it's like they are now spending over $10,000 a year on it.

Talk about a bad second impression. I thought I liked this concept a lot but after seeing it again, I'm not so sure. The back is just weird/awkward. I'm also not sure how they can improve on the current S2K (if that is what this is), performance-wise, but a 3 liter dohc ivtec engine would be a good start. As far as the rear tail light goes, I think they got a little confused and put it on the wrong car. It doesn't make much sense here. Overall, I say drop the +2 nonfunctioning rear seating, keep the wider stance and rwd, increase engine size, and give this thing some shape instead of just flipping a bath tub up side down.

there must have been a mistake made somewhere as the previously issued artistic impression was infinitely more sportingly contoured than this actual facsimilie. what a letdown !

either a classic case of misleading advertisement , or Honda is losing fast its sense of proportion . i strongly suggest Honda appoint the car perspectivist to become its technical director of exterior design/bodyshell development as the original concept was hopelessly reduced to that of an AlfaRomeo clone .

Ew. The outgoing model looks infinitely better.
"...a shape clearly related to the Civic hatch..."
who decided that would be a good idea?

Whats with the FWD proportions? This cant be the new S2000. I'm with eas722 on this one, del Slow maybe?
July 22, 2008 8:39 pm
Gah! That isn't even a CRX Del Slow, it's more like a Civic convertible. It's too tall to be a roadster - and it's front end should've been longer with no rear overhang AT ALL. This bulbous look is waay to French. That's a roadster. I'd just take the headlights and the interior (which looks production-ready, judging by the current Civic) onto the production S2000. Please, Honda, wtf happened?

A bit of a miscommunication there - A French convertible is NOT a roadster...
July 22, 2008 11:26 pm
ugly...the front end looks like a peugeot....i can't imagine an s2000 with this look
July 23, 2008 6:19 am
