Whaddya mean 'gayed up'?

Any bloke driving a car that is so blatantly dildo-proportioned is definitely a bit suspect!

Even of they HAVE removed the veins fron the new one.

The S2000 is far more more smooth & discreet; like those small battery-powered things some women like to wear.

Note also BMW have retained the flat panel which tends th emphasise the stumpy arse.
Screen frame angle seems to be steeper, but is at a discord with the forward sloping roll-over hoops.
Bit of a BMW mish-mash then.

They'd gayed the Z4 up, looks like the S2000
So you bought the s2000 because it looked gay.

Up to the door it looks nice then the little short rear looks a bit strange as does the excisting z4. Would defo look better as a coupe.
The big question is are Honda going to use all the billions they spent on F1 to produce some competition, a Hairdo s3000 would be nice.

Cough!

It didn't look gay when I bought it, it's become gayer over time

Plus I didn't know much about cars when I bought the S2000 or gayness

Good pics, I like it.

Looks a lot sleeker than the current model.

Look forward to seeing it in the metal. I think May 09 is the UK release.

Does nothing for me that at all. Dissapointing that it won't feature the M3 V8. I know the twin turbo is agruably the better engine but it doesn't seem to fit right in a roadster.

Interior is a massive dissapointment as well - and looks significantly more feminine to me.

Don't like mine, like this one even less.
