This looks a lot like their concept car shown awhile ago that had "rx-8" - like seating (4 passenger with console)...

At least Acura is back to separating their cars from the Honda lineup in performance. That car has a basic Civic coupe look, but dressed up. With the S2000 engine it should outclass the Civic by a ways. When I had my CL Type S, they came out with the Honda Accord with more HP and features than my car just 1 year after I bought it. Ugh!!

S2000 engine huh? I had heard that it might get a turbo 4 (maybe that new one they've started using, but retuned).

I've seen that so many times on a concept. Nothing new.

This car is too heavy for the S200 engine. Now, the new turbo engine from the RDX tuned for 20 more hp would be great.

Maybe for the S200 engine, but the S2000 engine, that's another story... j/k I knew what you meant.

I like it.
