Honda and GMC partnership

https://www.musclecarsandtrucks.com/...vic-rendering/

Obviously the rendering and thoughts on what this means for the camaro are way too speculative and kind of ridiculous.

However, it is interesting news to see what this partnership brings

Honda and GM have had a growing relationship for years. Remember the Saturn VUE had a Honda V6 engine for a bit.

It will be interesting to see where this goes.

I like the idea of Honda reliability mixed into a GM product

Very true, and good point. But to be honest I still think GM has a ways to go overall to be on par with Honda. The gap is closing for sure, but I would still put money on a Honda being overall more reliable. Interestingly enough my girlfriend has a 2019 Accord Sport with about 25k miles, which is about the same mileage as my Camaro. I'm very curious to see how they will compare over time

I recall researching this and finding out that Honda actually set foot in America thanks to Chevy. Honda even restored a classic Chevy pickup truck, the same ones they used to deliver their motorcycles.

I just think some of their technology is falling behind. The J35 technology is getting very old at this point. I am willing to bet that Honda is just basically leaving it on life support for a few years before killing it off with K20 turbos.

Their hybrid technology does seem kind of interesting and is working out for them(better than the 8th Gen Civic hybrids, anyway), so curious to see how that goes.

And heh if Honda can have another RWD sports car again, that would be cool. If Toyota can have a BMW as their Supra, I don't see why Honda can't have a GM as their S sports car, LOL. I mean, JDM is already dead anyways, right?

Okay I think my imagination is running wild again.
