I guess so. But I don't mind my s2k all that much even if it does owe its existence to the Miata. When the "copy" is better than the original, why not buy it?

It really wasn't a lie... I'm very interested in just about everything Honda builds. I even try to love the Odyssey

For me the tough sell is that Ridgeline thing...

OK boys and girls.. THIS is where the S2000 comes from

http://hondasportsregistry.com/SCarMorph.avi

Hope the .avi file type works for you - it's VERY old at this point My browser shows it in QuickTime.

I know, I know. I understand that the history of the roadster extends further back than the Miata. But... without that car, there would be no modern versions.

That too... but I try to remember that Honda did make trucks way back... I think you posted the pic of the little truck in front of the Ridgeline that my friend Brian owns.

He tows his old S cars with the Honda truck which I gotta give him a for.

He used to tow with his V6 Accord wagon but that is mostly retired at this point.

It just makes me angry that my favorite sports car and racing car company is forced to build a minivan in order to compete with Toyota in having a "full vehicle line up"
