Shame the US won't be getting the one that does 350 HP. 2017, but isn't 60k a bit much?

I'd have thought they were going to go after the FRS and BRZ market if they brought this back. Aren't those cars selling well?

No, they aren't. Combined sales for the two of them were about 25k units in the US last year. And from what I've heard, the international version isn't doing well either.

It's a Honda 370Z Convertible!

Wow. I see quite a few around here. That's why I figured they were selling well. That explains why there's no rush for others to introduce their own versions to compete.

Meh...

i2disturbedSS · 05-14-2014, 04:39 PM

Almost like the NSX

I think the article is saying the US won't get the Civic Type R with the 350HP engine but that the US S2K would get the 350HP motor. I don't think anyone would pay $60K for a sports car that has 250HP or something... would they?

i2disturbedSS · 05-14-2014, 08:35 PM

They did - NSX and 3000GT-(more around 300hp)

Wrong people buy Porsche Caymans all the time and The New Alfa Romeo is about that Hp and is in that same or more price range actually. Also at the end of the article the writer is definite not a car enthusiast cause he said something along the lines of it would be nice to have a Everyday Nsx but Nsx's have always been everyday supercars they are the one who made Ferrari step up their game.

Honda seems to want to get back into the performance market, making toasters seems to have grown stale.
