While speculation is the fuel that burns the innards of the internet’s engines, how could you not let your imagination run wild when images of a wide-bodied, mid-engined Honda CR-Z pop up on the net?

The shots here are courtesy of the GT Channel and show a CR-Z getting the widebody treatment and its V-configured engine sitting behind the driver.

It would make sense for Honda to campaign the CR-Z in the GT300 class as it’s bigger brother, the Honda HSV-10, is currently occupying second spot in the top-tier GT500 category. The engine and chassis restrictions are more relaxed in the lower GT300 class, hence the V6 or V8 engine being moved to the middle. Even the doors are constructed out of carbon fiber.

If the car is being built to be run in the SuperGT, testing would commence later this year and if all the kinks are ironed out, hopefully the CR-Z will be lining up on the grid next year when the SuperGT circus comes to Sepang.
