Honda's UK "Super" Hatch
I chanced upon this today:
www.redh.co.uk/
It looks like they tweaked the engine and revised the suspension. It's a pretty loud looking car. I think it's still cool in a "far out" sort of way. It sounds fun to drive on paper.

Nice looking car. I love hatchbacks! I think all of my cars were hatches, except my 8. Looks fun. Seems like everybody (overseas) gets all the cools stuff--bikes, cars, etc.

Bummed, but bring on OU!
Too much going on with the look, but it does sound like a pretty fun little fwd hatch. For the money I'd buy a C30 personally, but I'm no boy racer

That is a good looking hatch though.

It's not the handling that concerns me. I've seen first hand what the Cobalt SS, SRT-4 ACR and an ITR can do around a track. Plus Alfa Romeo always tears it up in European Touring. It's just the tunability. At a certain power level it becomes a wheel hopping mess. I'm still holding out for an AWD turbo charged Honda. Everything can be found in the parts bin now. The question is will Honda ever put it together?

I agree with you on the tunability.
I'm sure Honda is thinking the same thing regarding the parts bin. Let's see there's the turbo-charger present in the RDX, SH-AWD, and potent Vtec 4s and 6s. A combination of those items would make for a very nice car...a la next gen NSX?

Next gen nsx will get a high reving v10, next gen accord coupe is said to have a turbo 4 with a 6mt. It wont get the SH- AWD, that is a Acura only option in the present/ near future.
