With the July 22nd London Auto Show approaching brings out a new concept from Honda, the Open Study Model or OSM. The lightweight, two-seater, open-air sports car is another design study by Honda that attempts to blend performance and sustainable motoring into a comprehensive package. Designed by Honda's R&D center in Offenbach, Germany, the OSM is a vehicle in the same environmentally friendly vein as the CRZ Concept unveiled in Tokyo last year, considered to be a low emissions alternative to the traditional sports coupe.
Honda insists that the OSM is strictly a design study and is not confirmed for production.

Well, don't know where Mr. Burlapp dug this up (he's always been great at finding stuff like this), but it's interesting none the less. Looks a lot like the Honda S3000 that was to be proposed to replace the S2000. If anything, I think it could be what the CR-Z could end up looking like in it's (close to) production form, although Honda has squashed any ideas of a convertible CR-Z last I heard.

Don't know what it is, but it looks cool. Probably a couple of years old. I could see it becoming some kind of newer version of a Del Sol.
