@@sakurojason Unlikely, Soichiro had a real hate for V8s, I don't understand why. It's really unfortunate, too, the original NSX would have been much better off with a 3.2 liter V8 based on the B16. Honda cars these days are pretty meh anyway.
@@PistonAvatarGuy That’s why I’m saying that their cars would benefit a lot with a V8. And Soichiro is not alive anymore so they might as well try something new.
@@sakurojason I just can't imagine where that would fit in Honda's lineup. A DOHC V8 with VTEC? That's like Ferrari levels of performance and it would carry a hefty price tag. Maybe a new NSX would do well with the engine, if the car went back to the roots of the model, just an NA driver's car. A big, cushy RWD Acura, maybe? I always dreamed about something like a Toyota 86 (it's weird how I dreamed about a car like that, then it became something real), but with a high-revving, small displacement V8 (~3 liters)... that would be pretty cool.
@@PistonAvatarGuy Acura NSX and Acura’s rest of the flagship cars, Honda Legend, Honda Ridgeline, Honda Accord and maybe the Honda Odyssey. I’d say any car that ever came with a V6 option could use a V8 option too. The Accord with a V8 could keep up with Mustang if you turbo charge it.
Sharp looking boat; however, they should extend the T-top over the console more. Sitting in a rainstorm and the water is going to cascade onto the dash...
Don't like they way those motors are mounted, doesn't look right and all the spray shooting up the transom all over the engine cowl? Lovely motors though and no doubt they'll be rock solid reliable.
Maurizio ho visto in successione la prova del Capelli coi 350 Suzuki e questa. Il Capelli mi sembra pesi 2 tonnellate in meno eppure 3 litri/miglio contro 2,5 degli Honda e stessa vel max 50 nodi. Giusto?
Verado stomps these anchors! in all functions! MPG is terrable compared to mercs! Who wants this new engine? No experiance in the salt water world! Merc rules that world in all waySs! oh a balanced engine, wow! that makes it good! HAY! Merc has been stamping out Vrods and engines for years and sells the most in the salt world, and has world experiance building them! Honda has always been known as boat anchors! If we wanted a anchor, Id buy a rope! Not a HONDA! Support US made items! Not Japan! racing like? Merc owns that world too! Always has always will~! Go away Honda we dont need you!
I have owned 6 250hp verados and put 3000-3500 hours on each pair. I have gone through 11 lower units, 3 superchargers, and have never made it more than 500 hours without a major mechanical breakdown. I also have some smaller optimax and other mercury motors. Bought my first set of Honda 250's 3 years ago and have 1600 hours on them and have not had a single issue of any kind. I run a Charter business in Alaska. The cost of maintenace alone will save me the cost of a motor over the life of a motor. I will never go back to mercury again. The reliability, fuel mileage, ease of oil changing and cost of those changes. I also increased my fuel effeciency from 26 gph to 22 gph when I switched. The fuel savings alone will pay for a new motor after 3000 hours. I was a die hard Mercury fan. Never again.

I can’t wait until they put a V8 in one of their cars

Why so much hate? Just because Honda’s are more reliable than the competition you love?
