what if it was a wrong wheel drive 3500lb hybrid with a 130hp 3 cylinder gas engine with only a cvt transmission?
Oh, that's right. Man.., I just miss the Preludes.. The long nose, trunk deck coupes looked sex as hell through out each 'n every gen.. That's a little risky, but I feel ya. I get the pic of the current / ecological trend, but that'll be quite a bit of downgraded spec lol. Well, it might beat the CRZ with 130hp but 3500 is really chunky.
I'd be happy to see this brought back. But it needs a powerplant. In 99/2000 when the S2000 first came out, it was the highest producing natural aspirated 4 cylinder in terms of power. Torque was very low sadly.
That is not a return to the S. If it has a 1.5L engine, it should be the S1500. This has been a problem since the 2.2L crap! I want an S1100, with a sequential 6-speed trans, and electric reverse (look up peoples cordless drill hacks ). Basically a CBR1100-XX engine, shoved in a Locost, with a nice lookin body. Even better, make that with VTEC, so you get good efficiency and bat-outa-hell performance (when your foot gets too heavy). Oh, and a curb weight of less than 1500lbs, so leave off the unneeded crap, like a radio. And carpet. Hell, the roof should be optional, so make sure the floor has drain holes!
