That Acura concept is the Crossfire's long lost twin.
I concur. The very first glance of that first pic i thought it was an Aston

I think it is a replacement for the Lude more than the S2K. I liked the S2K dont get me wrong but I have wondered when honda would ste up into the V6 segment with a good priced car. Sure $43k looks like alot but think you are getting 40 more hp than a 350z, SH-AWD which is great, a sport-tronic 5 speed with paddle shifters on the steering wheel. It should be a great thing for honda in all reality

Is at auto with paddle shift or a manual with an electronically controlled clutch and gear box? If its the latter then it isn't such a bad deal considering that the F1 trans package is like 10K extra on Ferraris and no affordable cars have it.

Automatics with paddle shifts (or tiptronic, autostick etc) do not at all impress me. What really annoys me is that people that have that actually think they drive a manual, when in fact they are usually just stupid.

daaaaaamn. it is a bit pricy but compared to other high end sport cars its not so bad considering u get a good amount of performace, luxury, and reliability. i love the hard top, havnt seen very many hard top s2k's around so im glad they decided to go hard top with this. im glad to see honda step it up a notch

For the S2K you have to buy the hard top and it isn't cheap. There is a kid at my school with a black S2k and he puts the hard top on for the winter.
