**TROLL** · 01-26-2009, 06:27 PM

Its not that sad if they're still going to make a S3000 to replace it...

jdm free · 01-26-2009, 06:29 PM

honda has abandoned plans for an s3000 or a new nsx.

and this is kinda old news

DPancoast · 01-26-2009, 06:36 PM

eh well, they had a good run

The Captain · 01-26-2009, 06:39 PM

I hope their next sports car is pure dirt ball ... I mean how can a company whose motto used to be bred/born from racing (i forget which) NOT have a sports car.

For christ sake, the god damn acura TL has a more powerful motor than the nsx!

mikes7ke · 01-26-2009, 06:39 PM

Wasn't the s3k concept that hideous thing which had a front end that looked somewhat like a squished version of the new civic?

now they are doing this simple motto thing. just saw a commercial the other day. lemme see if i can find it

Eclipse GSX 61 · 01-26-2009, 06:41 PM

What a shame. I like the S2000's and NSX's. My care for Honda went down even lower than it already was lol.

The Captain · 01-26-2009, 06:42 PM

ughhhh f' simple. I want reliable fun, not simplicity.

Therefore Honda now = Gay

Companies with no performance models fail i an epic manner

jdm free · 01-26-2009, 06:45 PM

actually their new campaign is "Power of Dreams". i still saw some commercial where they called it simple or something of the like. cant find it either

so toyota fails? the number one car manufacturer in the world?

and they are planning the fc concept which will be a high output fuel cell powertrain.

jjm4life · 01-26-2009, 06:49 PM

^^ yea toyota and honda both fail from an enthusiasts standpoint.

jdm free · 01-26-2009, 06:51 PM

the fc is "to satisfy enthusiasts in a world beyond petroleum"

ndubz · 01-26-2009, 06:57 PM

Yes, but the FC isnt out yet. Ever since they ended the supra, all performance has been thru lexus at high prices. So ya they do fail for enthusiasts. Like I said, any company w/o performance cars.
