IMHO after the FRS/BRZ and what not Honda will have an itching to bring back the S2000 because they will realize the market is still here for a fun RWD car.
The V6 currently found in any Honda is not an Earth Dreams motor. It's just a lightly revised version of the V6 that's been around for a while, and only has an extra 10-15 hp. Dunno where you got the idea that all of a sudden it had some serious hp?

Honda is teaming up with McLaren again starting in 2015. They will be supplying the team's engines, which in adherence with the rules will be a 1.6 liter turbocharged V6.
