New batch of Hondas
I don't know if this has been covered or not but Honda has showed some interesting vehicles that it will display at the 39th anual Tokyo Motor Show.
This is the Sports4, an Accord sized vehicle with SH-AWD and a 2.0L engine. Sporty, light, AWD, Honda, what else can you ask for? (Possible A4 compeition)
FCX, another "futuristic fuel-cell technolgy show case".
W.O.W. Concept, I believe I read an article about it here on this website. It has dog holders or whatever as a gimmick. Interesting, possible styling cues for next-gen Element.
Motorcycle... E4-01
Several articles including one I have read on Temple of Vtec have mentioned a new S2000. I don't know if this will be a 2006 model, or a totally new S2000. No pictures were available of that car.
Enjoy
...and If you like the info, you could always give me some rep.
More info on these vehicle can be found @ Inside Line

Rep Power: 348 A lot of the vehicles that Honda releases at the TMS never see a market outside of Japan. The international cars are actually quite boring if you ask me, but that is where Honda's bean counters know more than me... The Sports4 and W.O.W. look like they're production ready vehicles. I know the Sports4 would be popular over here...
I rechecked some info, and the Sports4 is actually about the length of the 8th gen Civic, the same wheelbase, but the width of a RL/Honda Legend.

And it seems like it is gonna be slow. A 2 liter L engine? Doesn't the City have the L series?

LOL, completely misread that part.

Rep Power: 348 The Sports4 is a 4-door vehicle. A 2L engine would seem about the norm in that category, especially overseas, but it might see a bump in displacement if it ever comes here.
I think it might be the next TSX, although, by wheel base comparison, it looks like it could be built on the Civic platform, which was engineered to accept AWD. So it could possibly be a younger sibling to the TSX.

Rep Power: 348 This car would be too small to be the American TL, lengthwise, it is smaller than the TL. The Accord (everywhere else) will soon be replaced and this could be our next TSX. People have noted how it looks similar to the Lexus IS.

I'm pretty sure the TL will stick with a 6 cylinder engine too, so TL is out of the question. The Sports4 has a 2.0L 4-banger.
