They've been offering models of the GS with V8s the whole time and the 'F' model of the IS with a V8 since 2006. Granted these are heavier "luxury" cars, so not something you would cross-shop with a Camaro.
Are we off-topic yet?
Scotty Kilmer: Who makes the best engines, Honda or Toyota?
Re: Scotty Kilmer: Who makes the best engines, Honda or Toyo
One more thing, the UR engine family is a follow-on to the UZ series in all the large cars and trucks/SUVs. I expect that these will be the next family of Toyota V8s swapped into things once they become plentiful in the salvage yards ('06+ is still 'new').
Re: Scotty Kilmer: Who makes the best engines, Honda or Toyo
No, these are all good points. I would say that with the IS, GS and LFA, Toyota/Lexus is doing more exciting things than Honda/Acura.Are we off-topic yet?
The NSX was kind of a letdown. What else is there really for Honda? The Civic Type R??? I refuse to get excited about that.
I really wish that Toyota did the development of the new Supra so it could be special again and not a BMW rip off...
Re: Scotty Kilmer: Who makes the best engines, Honda or Toyo
Honda makes many modern engines that are great for swaps into older things. If you're into that.
Re: Scotty Kilmer: Who makes the best engines, Honda or Toyo
I am and could be more into that. I am not super into most of the older FWD Honda platforms. It is interesting though.
