    Rumorpile: Return of the Honda S2000

      Another S2000 Rumor Comes In

    From the 'We Can Dream' file, Auto Express is reporting that Honda is planning to bring back the S2000 nameplate for a new mid-engine coupe. Quite the departure from the front-engine roadster that was the S2000. The model is expected to be the middle of a trio of sports cars from Honda; the top being the NSX and bottom being a small roadster named S660.

    The reborn S2000 is expected to be powered by a turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder producing somewhere in the range of 350 horsepower. There is talk of using a simplified version of the NSX's hybrid powertrain as another option.

    The model is expected to arrive sometime in 2017, two years after the arrival of the NSX.

    Funny that they want the smallest to be an S660, poaching the stupid name from MB.

    All in All, I think they should use the NSX hybrid power train in all 3 cars making it a family of performance sedans that covers a wicked range from say 200HP/250LBS of torque to 600HP and 600+ lbs of torque. It would be awesome and would lower the cost since most of it is programming / detuning.

    This actually is a pretty good idea.

      Not sure...I'm not using it, so apparently it wasn't that useful to me...wherever I've gone, I've been there.    Having on the phone only makes sense because you have to have location services turned on for it to gather data, and your phone is always with you, so...

      Ok, thanks, but what would be the gain or loss related to the Timeline as a specific feature?  Why they made a bifurcated yes/no decision on desktop versus phone is weird. I will continue to use Google Maps.  Remember Mapquest?  Yikes.   Not to digress, but I use the Moovit app with great success when it comes to planning rides on transit.  It resets itself to the metro area you are in and seems to do a slightly better job than Google Maps.

      If the Lyriq's proportions are off, then so are all of the "crossover coupes" from BMW, Mercedes, Audi, and Acura.

      Had to look up what Google Timeline was... apparently a feature of Google Maps.  I think I've used it, but several years ago...not something I actively use.  I mostly use Waze for navigation.  I use Google Maps at home on my laptop when exploring an area/planning a trip then Waze when I'm in the car.

      With all this discourse, I need some input. I have put off ... and forgetting about ... my election for the Google Timeline, which is about to sunset.  People seem to say it's phasing out for desktop, but will stay on phones.  Like others have said, they get more mileage out of it on their desktop/laptop than other their phone ... ditto for me. Who really benefits from the Timeline?  I've looked at it a few times, mostly to be amused. What election are you or people you know making?  What is/will be salvageable?  What do you recommend?
