I am sorry but that's not Italian S2000 that's Argento Viva. It was a Honda concept car developed in joint effort with a Italian designer. Notice all the chrome used on the car.

doesnt matter if he helped, the back of the car does not say anything remotely starting with a p.
all of their badges are longer, and alot smaller
notice i have not said the name, only b/c i am unsure of the spelling and would rather not fuck it up. respect for an awesome company that designs cars from god
but that is not their badge. it doesnt start wit ha p

I believe it is a PININFARINA design.
I like it. It certainly has some PININFARINA design cues to it.

not really
there are processes that get chrome extremely light...
also... it is the material it is on that makes it heavy...
chromed steel is heavy... b/c the steel is
for example... on my s10, the stock grille was chromed plastic... i sandblasted and painted it, and it weighs the same as a nonchrome grille...
and where i work at stylin concepts there are grilles around in chrome and painted, and there is no weight diff
the chroming process has become pretty high tech, and the actual thickness of the chrome is much less...

I agree.. I'd take a Honda S2000 anyday. That styling is just too far out as far as I'm concerned.

Indeed, this is the Argento Viva concept by Honda, yet designed by Pininfarina himself. This was the idea of the S2000 but then Honda decided to keep the designed in-house and today we have the S2000. This concept was first conceived in 1995.

I like the Pininfarina design of S2000, it even comes with a retractable hardtop.
