I see the Mustang and 2-Series are selling well. Not sure about Mercedes-Benz, but for a small market, coupes are selling. On another note, Hyundai(add KIA and Genesis) have shown what is possible in the more affordable four door sedan class. If Hyundai were to bring the 74 model(or some type of sporting coupes) to market(even though the Veloster is gone), I think that would be a good spark for the industry.
The Prelude is around because coupes do sell. Honda making it low volume may add to the interest of other manufacturers bringing coupes back. Yeah, it’s expensive, but older sporting coupes are either trashed or not justifiable to buy and restore, as I’ll point out in reference to the comment Keef made about actual people extreme customising new cars. Regular consumers won’t go through the trouble of fixing up/restoring/customising an older coupe. So, having another option such as the Prelude does help the market. Maybe.
