That was truly a beautiful speech and I'm envious of those of you who were there to see it.
It's amazing that even in the modern automotive world of multi-national corporations, cross-over vehicles, focus groups, shared platforms, and intense economic pressures -- one man can be inspired by his love of driving and shape a car that is as singular in purpose and design as the S2000; let alone one that is affordable and reliable.
Hats off to Uehura-san and Honda for 10 years of a car like no other.

Yamamoto San, Mr Uehara's interpreter and colleague, raced in the Nurburgring 24 Hour in 2006, Team Honda. I think he has done this a few times.
He's just ordered an Ultimate Edition S2000 as a result of his visit to Euromeet, and says he loves being part of the S2000 family

Fantastic - wish I could have been there, especially to be in the presence of the S2000's chief designer!
