Apparently Honda liked more than just Ferrari's high revving engines - these 328 gauges look familiar ?

Honda takes the hp/L crown from Ferrari F355 in 1997 with the ITR, and figures they would top it off by stealing the 328 gauge design !

Homage or Troll ? !

Honda should make a V8 sportscar.

The Ferrari 550 Maranello's steering wheel looks awfully familiar...

^Dang. You beat me to it.

That rev counter is obsurdly similar. Wheels are both by Momo though?

Must be. Slight difference in the pattern of the grip area.

Regarding the clusters, I wonder if it was just an OEM thing, maybe Denso produced both?

Side note, from an NSX, same design--as early as 1991:

Another similarity is driving experience imo. I drove an f430 on a track recently (one of those exotic car experience deals). Besides being a lot to handle, it really reminded me of a Honda. The way the v8 revved super high, and the way it sounded. And the steering was light and direct.

Honda has that excitement factor that doesn't come with other brands like Nissan. I had a 240 with sr20 for example. It didn't rev in the same exciting way.

I always found it interesting that Honda used a Momo steering wheel on ITR and also on NSX-R.

some attention paid to weight reduction with all parts of the car.
