I'd get back my deposit on the new M5 and buy that in a heartbeat!

That engine alone has to cost almost as much as a new RL.

WAITAMINUTE... a Honda V8? HAHA, Car and Driver was right about the ban on the gentleman's agreement! HOpefully, they'll be right about the 400 hp NSX too (heck, maybe even MORE if this thing is 600hp)!

Plus the fact that Honda has been working on a more civilized version of the Mugen V8.

Is that real? 590hp from Honda? OH MY GOD! A NA 4.0Liter making 590hp????? ARE YOU SURE? Price it at $90k and people would still buy it. Oh but please downtune the outside styling, it is too "boy-racer".
