It just dosent sound like it will be succesful. But thats my opinon i could be wrong.

It's a Honda V10 so it'll still only generate 180ftlbs of torque and probably like 300hp at 13,400rpm or some sick shit. Granted it'll do all of this while getting 30 miles to the gallon, but still.

I do have faith i hope that it will be the first V10, autocrossing bad ass to hit the streets of Japan . Just Honda has been veering off on the "performance" aspect of their cars.
