Acura CLX (Contempory Luxury eXperimental) non-sunroof coupe.

RWD, V8, 6spd... 330 plus horses... Built in Japan, and using the styling cues from the current TL and RL... Priced below the BMW M3... Think of it as the big brother to the RWD S2000 in coupe form...Heck, you could probably get away with a 3.5L V6 as long as it's RWD.

Or just give me an early 911 with a 3.6 conversion

What would it be like?
Heres the format:
1) Honda/Acura/Toyota/Nissan
2) CS4T
3) Targa top with roll down rear window.
4) 2.0L I4, Supercharged. Should make around 220 TQ, 270HP, Mid-engined, RWD
5) S2000, but with 2 more speakers.

6) Size: Think similar to Lotus Elise, but large enough for a 6'5" 250 pound person to be in.
7) Weight: Light. No more than 2800 pounds.

More or less a slightly more powerful 0-60, bigger version of the Lotus Elise.
