Hydrogen-Powered Supercar made with Acura TL motor and parts
http://www.rsportscars.com/ronn-moto...pany-scorpion/
"The Scorpion, the company says, will produce 450 horsepower by way of a twin turbocharged Acura TL-sourced VTEC V6, coupled with a Ronn Motor Company proprietary system that creates 130 octane hydrogen fuel on the fly using electrical energy produced by the car's powertrain. Ronn claims the Scorpion will achieve 40 mpg highway by mixing the hydrogen fuel with gasoline at a variable ratio based on needs."
"The first automotive design of several will be a mild hybrid, called the "Scorpion". This will be a light weight hand built carbon fiber body, over a race car designed chrome-moly chassis, powered by the latest high tech Acura V-Tech, V-6, Type S, 3.5 Liter power-plant from the 2008 TL TypeS. On board will be our Hydrogen on demand system, which provides 130 octane Hydrogen in real time, blended with gasoline in ratios of 30-50%. Coupled with a close ratio six-speed transmission and other fuel saving measures, the "Scorpion", highway fuel economy will be in the 40 mpg range, and capable of producing 450 horsepower with the twin-turbo option."

Haha is this a late April fools? They even used the TL steering wheel. I wouldn't pay $150k for this. You could get so much more for that price, but maybe it wouldn't be a hydrogen car and get 40 mpg. But that thing is seriously fugly. And some of the SC guys are making more power than that...
I guess the J35 is a good lightweight V6 for a lightweight CF car but look at it.
