Dunno Leo.
I think the only place that you're gonna find a mindset that Stewie has a "replacement" waitin' in the wings is on sites like this n' it probably falls under the headin' of wishful thinkin'.
Honda can afford to go off on tangents once in a while, but Honda's a thrivin' business. The only way any business gets folks to use the word "thrivin'" before the company name is when that business has great regard for the almighty buck n' favors the source of that almighty buck with product that the money source needs, or, items that tickle it's fancy enough to make it part with that money oud'a lust/impulse buyin'.
Stewie was fun, Stewie showed that Honda could bring a modern-day sports car (roadster no less) to the market n' peddle it to the faithful (That's us. Folks that need a little "rush" once in awhile), n' Stewie more'n likely had Honda take a loss in the difference between the R&D n' production n' what the actual Stewie sales brought in. But Honda's Honda. They can afford to go off on a tangent that doesn't follow the big bucks once in a while. But not on a regular basis.
There's alot (as in ALOT)more folks out there buyin' Civics, Accords n' all the other reliable ho-hummers that Honda makes. Us Stewie-buyin' faithful? We might register within two spaces on the right hand side of the decimal point of Honda sales. Not the kind'a showin' that's gonna have the suits in the stratospheric offices of Honda sendin' down word to the workin' grunts to design a replacement for Stewie.
But I'm a wishful thinker too.
Totally the world accordin' to Java guys. Personal opinion to the nth degree.
Be well.
