I have real soft spot for the anime influenced cars on the grid. If the team get another MP4-12C they should do another livery based on one of the other Eva's from Neon Genesis.

5 SLS GT3 cars is overkill compared to 3 GT-Rs and the rest.

According to Autosport magazine,
It seems that Honda will not outsource to Dome about development of 2014 NSX GT500.
However, the activity as Dome racing (#18) will be continued.

It said HK when I posted it, and now it is changed indeed. Either it was wrong information, or they want to make a big announcement about it.
