Looks like a Lexus with Mazda fenders and bario low rider wheels

wonder if they are going to replace the Del-sol inspired plastic interior that the current S2000 has.

Yeah I am not thrilled on the looks either....I am surprised nobody commented on the potential power increase. 350HP V6..... or a 250HP I4.

hopefully they will keep it I4 . not sure if they make a v6 version if they they will be abel to have the 50/50 weight distribution . but it will be interesting to see how much it weighs. if it weighs any where near what the z weighs, i would put a v6 into also.

I doubt it will look like that. That may be just a idea pic. The R3 wasn't the exact either. I say they will drop those pathetic wheels and tweak it a bit.

It'll probably look very nice when all is said and done.. Though I agree with anyone who says it looks like a Lexus. That front-end is very Lexus-like to me...

I don't care for the front (at all), but like Sal said: It'll probably look good when it's all done.

honda has been so weird w/ their sports/high performance cars. the s2k is so old and the nsx is way overdue, it feels like it might never show up. really their new blood is the civic si/type r. it almost feels like they're too busy making money off mass produced cars and neglecting the fun ones. if they're really going to bring out a new nsx or halo sports car, i don't see this new s2k coming in the near future

Right, because there's a few magazine rumors and a half-assed rendering, it must be true....

Anyway, if they do make one, I hope they keep the I-4, just make it lighter...

it looks kinda heavy to me, and please don't make it look like that

the S2k is probably 1 of the very very VERY few soft tops I'd ever consider owning in my lifetime........please please don't look like that >.<

Performance model should have a reworked version of the turbo4 they're putting in SUV's. Now that thing would be a beast!
