No thanks, I don't like the solstice/crushed mx-5/not a freaking s2000. 1.5rwd so its going to make less hp then a mx5 and rwd drivetrain loss its not competing with frs, period. Just put the s2k motor in it or hell a k series and maybe then. I can already see this car is doomed to suffer then same fate as the new mx5's, the street versions be the most boring "nimble" car ever but a track spec would prove to be decent because it would have to be modified so much to keep up with anyone. If there was a Honda I wouldn't own, it would be this one.

This is true. That would be nice, even though the s2ks are definitely a future classic.
Maybe change the ass end a bit and make the front a little less retro, and for the right price, 20k or less, it could be decent. The problem with topless cars is the body ends up heavier when the roof goes. They need to make sure that the motor doesn't end up overwhelmed by that weight if they use a 1.5/1.4 four banger.
Make it lightweight with a RWD K20/24 and I won't care how it looks lol.

Oh go no. Please just make it a mini S2000. Why would you make an MX-5 clone when your trying to compete with the FRS. Seems backwards as fuck.
