Wow, check out the link to the Auto Express Newsletter.

http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/pants74/php3/...le.php3?id=3785

It says the design is a mix of the X Coupe and the new Z3, will replace the M Coupe in 2003
With looks and style like that I could well be in the market for a new car then as my stook will be couple of years old.
Honda I hope you have something up your sleeves otherwise with a starting cost of

And they are stating pricing in the 30-35,000 range, which is a lot less than I thought they would be charging

Can't wait for them to lop the roof of that baby

There's an off topic thread on this in the U.S. section.

These were the comments I posted there .....



Anyone else noticed the basic design similarity to the S2000? Just look at it and imagine the beamer grille not there, lift the wheel arch a fraction, flatten the kinks in the bonnet and wings, make the lights a little larger...... see what I mean?

The roadster must look great!

I hope it's really VERY expensive, then I can console myself with the fact that it's a stupid amount of money to spend on a car

Interesting to see that the base Series 6 3.0 litre develops 240 bhp. Shows how good our S2000s are
