Remember all the hints that something special would be released around the same time of the RL? Could this be it?

I wish ... I would be more inclined to believe that this was the case if they were going to launch in Japan/Europe ... like the last time these 2 were going to debut around the same time & launch the brand w/ a bang.

Remember the talk of an Accord "based" MR coupe? Assuming the next RL will still be built on the global mid-sized chassis, bringing a new coupe to the market using a similar powertrain but with the engine mounted mid-ship would make a lot of sense. I still think it shouldn't be called an NSX replacement though.
