But, they would be truly amazed as well! lol

Creativity is just an art word for "stupid".

I agree with you it's fugly, but that doesn't make it stupid at all. What's stupid is Honda creating super "futuristic" sports car concepts and design studies, yet continues to make toasters with no fun car in sight (for NA at least)

Masterchief car??

lol always haters. If their vision sucks so bad, then make something better. That's IF you can, which I'm sure you could.

This about sums it up for Honda these days...

This is the first Honda I've been genuinely interested in since the S2000. It figures that it has no chance of being made.

Not a good looking car, but it's:

1. Mid-engine
2. RWD
3. Comes in a coupe body

If it was priced in the $30-40k range with a decent power-to-weight ratio, I'd consider it.

I will say that front end does look stupid with the headlights so far down but remember what the S2000 looked like before as a concept:

So with that in mind, if this ever (hypothetical here) did go into production or a shape similar to this in some way, the lights would be moved up, turn signals in the proper place, and it would look a lot more normal.

All this hypothetical talk just makes me want an S660, something real, affordable, and fun.

Don't shatter my dreams

Hahaha it's funny, just yesterday I thought of the S660 and went back to drool at the video you posted in that thread and read all the rumors again for a good hour. I miss my MR2 Spyder so much, but I can't get myself to buy a creaky old rattlebox. Has to be at least a creaky *new* rattlebox

I would buy that if it came stateside.

Looks so damn fun to drive.

My major concern with the s660 would be changing "Will this fit in my Honda" to "Will I fit in this Honda?" Along those lines, I have a friend who is hellbent on importing an AZ-1. If I fit in that, we may need to get a second car, an empty parking lot, and the Benny Hill theme on repeat.

What exactly is it about this car you guys think looks bad? I honestly think it looks damn good. Better than the new NSX even... also better than the new Supra (FT-1). It's sleek, modern, exotic... Looks good to me. Proper proportions for a mid-engine sports car.
