Dave, you actually bring up a damn good point.
However, though it does look rather similar I have problems believing that the S2000 replacement will be a front engine all wheel drive vehicle.
Then again... a front engine rear wheel drive being changed to a front engine all wheel drive is a bit closer than a mid-engine rear wheel drive changed to a front engine all wheel drive.

Personally, I think the next gen S2000 will have a 2.5~liter I5 (275-300hp) (basically 1/2 the engine size of the next NSX (V10). Still front engine, rwd, and with a 7 speed manual (or possibly manumatic/DSG type of tranny). It'll probably have a folding hardtop ala the Miata & the new BMW 3series.

If I remember correctly, the AASC was built w/o any engine/driveline/interior. Honda can say pretty much *anything* as to what the AASC may or may not have.

- That just sounds disgusting.Though I'd have to admit... if I could find a way to get an AP1, toss in an Inline Pro 2.5L Stroker, and get Paddle Shifting - I'd probably do it!
