The 280hp 'gentlemans' agreement was scrapped mid last year.
Can't find the proper link, but google came up with this:

yup
its on wheels. no more capping
christ thats hot!!! wouldnt mind those rims lol blingbling:D
keep in mind that this was designed before Honda even knew about the agreement being lifted.. so expect hp figures to rise
so is the hsc project scrapped or not? i heard it was. or is it likely to be developed into a production model??
that car is awesome
its a concept so i guess it wont be a production car then, just a concept:(
ok, this sexy looking coupe is supposed to go into production but its not meant to compete with the super exotics like Ferrari and Lamborghini.. From what I've read, Honda will be rationalising its lineup in the near future and the HSC (those letters make me shudder..) will be a replacement for both the NSX and the S2k. It will be priced below the current NSX but above the S2k. Thats the main reason that its got a V6 instead of something with bigger cajones..
As for the 'gentleman's agreement' power cap, you can't seriously believe that that has been abided by for the last 10 years.. the 206kw limit was just what was quoted in official press material but the cars made significantly more in the real world (look at the GTR in its various incarnations from nismo and the m and n spec models.. they made heaps more than 206kw)
