I am pleased to read that the engine is being put in the right place.

Whilst no great surprise, the electric gubbins are a disappointment.

...a few more cylinders would be nice too...

If it made it sound like this,

then yes, but most of the modern V8 Ferraris I hear sound very artificial.

Unnecessary cylinders aren't really Honda's thang.

The electrickery is (according to Honda) lighter than the extremely heavy SH-AWD system used by the Rlegendo & the GT5000. Believe that if you will, but its ability to regen brake one front wheel & pass the current to another might eliminate the NSX's turn-in understeer and make it even better.

It might also be a PoS, but I'd reserve judgment until the thing appears.

Probably driven by Jesus H Christ & accompanied by four horsemen...

Lets wait & see but remember it is a concept.

I'm not sure that would improve understeer - need to brake the inner rear as Porsche etc do.

A bit late to the party:
