In our TOV/TOVA forums, one forumer talked about the current state of sporty models development by Honda. According to him, Honda stopped all Sports car designs and development in
Dec 2008. It wasn't re-started until 2011 which is why we will not see
any new sports cars until 2014 (in the form of the new Honda Beat).
During those three 'dark' years (2008 - 2010) only unofficial side projects which Honda R&D engineers dabbled in on their own time was the mid-engine NSX and Beat.
