Smile s2k discontinued? =(

damn... guys! when i went to a honda dealership they said that the s2k is being discontinued. when i heard this i was so sad. because i had to sell my 2001 for money issues couple years back. depending on how busniesss goes i was thinking of getting a s2k this septemeber. the problem is that im not sure if i am able to buy a s2k in september... so if the worst case happens, whats another good substitue for a 2 seater roaders i can buy?

i surfed on over to the rx-8's forum... i really dont know how those guys think. they say the rx-8 is better than the 350 and way better than the s2k... but they dont back there argument with substance...besides.. rx-8 seems kinda slow and underpowered for the price i gotta pay for it

350's are nice but... god damn i see them everywhere!!!

oh yeah... i also went to the dealship and ask about used s2k preferably 02 and 03 models. the guy told no one like to sell s2k's much cuz they love the car so much

what am i gonna do if i cant afford a s2k this year.. whats an alternative please help me guys...

They've been saying it for years

Somebody already confirmed the color codes for the 06 models.

Probably a better idea to listen to Honda on whether or not the car has been disco'ed... and it indeed HAS NOT.

Dealers are retarded (other than that select few... Ganley, Honda World, etc)

I wouldn't be surprised if they pull it after '06. No one knows for sure. I read the vtec site (great damn info) and right now best speculation says they are working on a $40-50k sportscar as an in between S2K and NSX. Whatever it is, is being kept quiet just like with a new model bike. And they need to bring the damn V5 (motorcycle) ASAP

My friend works for an advertisement agency and they just did a photo shoot for the 06 and apparently it will have some minor changes to it. Like different wheels and stability control.

Can you ask your friend for more info about these "minor changes"?

there will always be used s2000's on the market. people will have their own personal reasons to sell them, just like you did with your 2001.
