| Honda S2000 successor to be a mid-engine hybrid Quote:
Patent filings in Japan by Honda suggest that the automaker is working on a new roadster to take over where the Honda S2000 left off

Mid engined? Doesn't look like there's a lot of room in there.

i wouldn't mind if it was a 2.0L f20c in that thing coupled with an IMA (integrated motor assist) for instantaneous torque, then have the engine kick in at like 3.5k all the way till 9k for some mad vtak. Car must be <2900lbs, and be able to run low offset wheels without over fenders/ replacements.

If this is true, the Honda obviously gotta get their head checked.
NSX Successor -> HSV = FR?
S2000 Successor -> = MR ?
I think it would make more sense if the HSV was a hardcore on steriod successor to the S2000 and leave the MR platform for NSX
I don't know if its just me, a Mid Engine sports car that is from Honda and not called a NSX is awkward.
