Every time I hear of a motorcycle manufacturer venturing into cars or designing an engine for a car, all I can think of is the Smart Car with a Hayabusa engine in it:

Same here. I get the feeling it's a Kei car. Which means domestic market only if they even end up producing it.
But wow, I'm super excited for next week. Sounds like a lot of interesting things will be revealed. I was starting to get bored with the car industry.

Feelin the same way here. Not much interesting automotive news these past few months other than the long strings of talk about the new Ford Focus RS, the Honda Civic Type-R, and the Chevrolet Camaro.

It looks as if it will have another issue in common with the Spyder which will be lack of usable storage space. I would be OK with this as the successor for the MR2. Mine has a Yamaha designed engine in it anyway.

A lightweight Yamaha powered tub chassis car was available more than a decade ago called the Lotus Elise. Except that was MR (I believe this Sports Ride is FR).
The designer is Dezi Nagaya, ex-Toyota designer of the FT-86 II which ultimately most closely resembled the final production design compared to other concepts including the later FRS Concept.
