Honda's two-seat sports car is drawn in classic roadster format with a front-mounted engine directing strong horsepower to the two rear wheels. It uses a rigid monocoque chassis, four-wheel double wishbone suspension, precise rack and pinion steering system, four disc brakes with anti-lock controls, a tight race-type six-speed gearbox, and a high-tech 2.0-liter aluminum four-cylinder engine that soars to 240 hp. It looks as aggressive as it acts. A sleek wedge-shaped shell shows an extended prow and curt tail with an aerodynamic face marked by clear-lens high-intensity headlamps, a clean wrap of integrated monotone bumpers and vast horizontal air port. Flanks bulge at front wheelwells with muscular shoulders accentuated by sheer vertical planes arching over the openings, followed by rolled side slabs and more contours from rear wheelwell extensions. Two form-fitting bucket seats drop on either side of the high center spine, which has a console on top housing the short-throw manual stick shifter.
