Saw one a week ago on the PA Turnpike enroute to Harrisburg. Looked pretty nice, and the guy driving was certainly pleased with himself

Unfortunately, I was driving my wife's Odyssey, so could not ZAP him. What's the MSRP and tranny like?

The car looks good until you get to the back. The rear is FUGLY.

Also it kinda has a weak engine for a Mercedes

huh, supercharge 2300cc engine with 6 speed? I don't think that engine is weak.... actually, I was on the highway with one c230 coupe a while ago. We were both driving like 80, after he took off, then I downshifted to 4 th gear..and then tried to follow him (yes, I could have downshift to 3rd gear when doing 80 on the highway) However, it took me a while to follow up... it is not that S2000 can't beat it, it is that it took me longer time than I have expected..
