Does the "MY1999" exist??
.....this discussion was pulled from another thread where it broke out as a debate as to whether the concept of a "MY1999" exists - S2000GT
Check Japan on that one.

As a model year or just sold early? I'm pretty sure they were considered early model year 2000. I wouldn't mind being proven wrong if you have some photos of doorjamb stickers or something. Even if they're in Japanese I should be able to read them.
Thought about it some more, a brochure from the 1999 model year in any country would do it for me.

yeah ive seen several places online that have stated that 1999 was when they first came out and im assuming they were just early model 2000s that were just being sold in '99 and thus why its listeed as a 1999

Don't forget the s2000 was suppose to celebrate Honda's 50th Anniversary in Motorsports. So 2000 should be the correct year. But other countries might consider vehicles sold in a particular year to be the actual model/registration year.

Most countries consider a car built and sold in 99 to be a MY99. As far as I know only NA believes a car can be sent back in time.
