So far, no use for it. I don't drive for extended periods of time with the top down so it just sits in my garage. Honda seems to think its needed because the one or two times I have gone in there with the S for something (back when I had the CPO warranty and had them fix minor issues like the top strikers and latches) they put a new cover in my trunk each time as if I didn't have one. Not sure if it was them being nice or what, but I ended up giving them out to other S owners.

Really that is pretty cool because those covers are generally really expense is you purchase them from Honda. Like I think they are over $100

I almost never drive with the top up (the car is not a daily driver). I tried to put it on a few times when the car was new but it was a royal pain and it wound up rubbing on the paint finish resulting in some surface blemishes in the paint (they were removed when I had my paint corrected). I like to put the top up when the car is sitting in the garage so it would constantly be put on and taken it off. I now have it wrapped in a protected bag and stored in my garage. I will admit that it looks nice when installed though.

Has been underneath my bed ever since I bought the car. Now that I have a hardtop, it'll never see the sun.

Never used it, never plan to use it. I wish the S2000 was not even a convertible.

If the top goes down...the cover goes on 100% of the time. It's an eyesore without it.

Agreed but it is that much more time consuming and doesn't give you quick access to dropping or putting the top up because you actually have to get out of the car and fold the cover... and put it in the trunk. Not the best if you get caught in the rain... which seems to happen to me every single time I put my top down... I must have angered Zeus at some point in my life.
