The CR does, but not the standard car. No I have not heard it.

I wonder how the regular suspension on the 2008 S2000 compares to the suspension on the AP1: is it stiffer?

is the hard top on the CR the same optional HT that you can buy for the "touring" model?

I love my all red interior. The all red dash is something that must be seen in person. It really is something.

This is quoted directly from the 2008 Honda S2000 brochure, about the CR exhaust note:


"A revised exhaust silencer gives the CR a throatier, sportier exhaust note."

Suspension & chassis:
- revised spring and damper tuning "that subtly influences steering feel and high speed vehicle behavior".
- Coil springs - Front: Stiffer by 7%, Rear: Stiffer by 9% (from 2007 spec)
- Dampers - Front: Damping Force Increased 10%, Rear: Damping Force Increased 5% (from 2007 spec)
- Satbilizer bars - Front from 26.5 x t4.5 (2007) to 27.2 x t5.3. Rear has no change

How better does it handle? Can i change to these setting on my 06?

I'm interested to hear the difference in the CR exhaust...I want a little more noise but I don't think I want something really loud...
