Maybe they're putting the V10 in the S2000 and calling it the S10000.

I think I'd buy one of those (in five years, as long as it was under $50K).

Just saw the pics. That's not an NSX! Some guy modded his S2000, that's for sure. Even Ray Charles could "see" that.

Nevermind! I now know what a "mule" really means.

More pics:





From that picture, you can see a roll bar inside. It's definitely a chopped up S2000 that's forming the main chassis but it's severely modified for length, hood height, and cockpit size.

The rear tires don't look any bigger than the S2000. The fronts look a bit bigger but not much - maybe 225 or 235 section width?

It's just someone's sweet customized ride.

I'm hoping Honda release a re-designed S2000 for 09'.

The current design is beautiful, but I think it's time for a change.
