EVENT: Tokyo Auto Salon 2016 Part 3 – Honda’s

Honda had a quite big booth compared to other Automakers, but somehow i got the feeling that the real Sportscar-DNA is missing. Of course there were a ton of Racecars, the New S660 Kei-Roadster and the new Civic Type-R and NSX but i still got the feeling that a proper grown-up Everyday sportscar is missing a bit. But that’s maybe just me.. Let’s start with the honda / Mugen booth: The New Civic TypeR drew some attention but it’s still at a concept phase and there was nothing but some simple aero upgrades…

Honda Modulo (A Japanese Accessory subbrand) had some styling bits as well: P1160462
