V8.
They could have used an RA block with a detuned head arrangement to achieve a serious car. Everyone went on about it being a "Porsche and Ferrari Killer" and all that crap when it came out, but only because it was competing with the 964 and 348, both which were nearing retirement at the time - Enter the 993 and 355, as well as a decent Corvette and it was an overpriced underachiever.
Honda needed to make the NSX work in America, and it was never going to do that with a 3 litre 6 out of the Honda Legend.
The Type R was a joke, selling less than 250 in its final run. A proper motor would have done it plenty of favours.

1: no, it doesn't. Please, try actually looking. Also try reading the source article.
2: The MP-4-12c is a year old already, same as the 458, this is three years on top, so 4 years on the Scuderia version Ferrari will be ending its production and a replacement will already be out, alongside a new flagship.
The Mclaren hasn't made anywhere near the impact that it was expected to, so its iffy if there'll even be another, although I've read rumours that there's something coming together already.
Porsche will have gone about as far as it needs to with the 991 as well and if the latest Corvettes are anything to go on the yanks will also have a serious car in the mix.
It will be the exact same scenario as the last time - offering the same level of performance as the outgoing competitors and failing miserably to keep up with the new releases.

Electric engine per wheel.
They have the same (I think) sort of thing happening on the new Inspire(! Maybe, I can't remember, it looked like a dishwasher so I stopped reading).
