Honda doesn't want to do another mid engine NSX cuz it'll hurt Ferrari and everyone else too much like the original NSX did. This is also the same reason why Honda doesn't feel the need to use DOHC when SOHC is already better than the competitions DOHC. Same with the V8 thing when a V6 is sufficient for the market. Honda likes to do things that they haven't done before. For example: S2000/NSX/RIDGELINE!!!

1. Honda took the exotics by surprise with the NSX. It was that damn good and way less $$$ and was relible.
2. Lexus took the Germans by surprise.
One thing I give to those European companies, they got it together FAST. BMW, Benz, Ferrari, Lambo, etc will simply NOT be caught with their pants down again.
The market is WAY to competitive. Honda simply took way to long for a NSX replacement and honestly with so many great cars (even Audi has a R8) it won't have nearly as much of an impact as in 1990.
