Honda Argento Vivo Concept - A Pininfarina designed Honda concept, that originally had a 2.5L 5-Cyclinder engine, but the Sultan of Brunei took interest in it, and managed to persuade Pininfarina to let go of it (he has cash to spend after all), and even persuaded them to make 5 more for his family. But instead of the original 5 banger, the Merc 7.3 V12 was swapped in. The Argento Vivo went no further, since the S2000 concept was being developed, so this was dropped.
9.5/10 reason it's not a 10 is I prefer the pre facelift AP1 to the looks of the AP2. Plus the AP2 wa softened down too. What with it's decreased rev limit to circa 8000rpm, and slightly softened suspension, and more gorgiving handling in general. Still sublime nonetheless (maybe I'm biased )
