Off-topic Talk Where overpaid, underworked S2000 owners waste the worst part of their days before the drive home. This forum is for general chit chat and discussions not covered by the other off-topic forums.

You know our car has gone mainstream when...

mmmm...so much for the abundance of CONGRATS and WELCOME ABOARD messages!

ahah never mind...here's the low down... I live in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and bought the car via a 'grey' or parallel importer as Honda Malaysia don't sell the vehicle.
These importers have a tendancy to 'turn-back' the clock on the year of manufacture of the vehicle in order to pay lower import taxes.

So, my car maybe a 2000 after all. Who knows. All I know is that nothing is gonna rain on my parade!

No, no no no no.....The S2000 did come out in 99. It just didnt do it in the US. We're always the last to get something cool. Once again Hoenda, congrats on your new car. I'm sure you will enjoy it as much as we do....Just dont be a Dirk and go racing a NOVA!!!

BTW, you might want to change your first post on it. You put one too many 0's in S2000 That's what I was joking about. Peace

Hey THANKS people. I've honestly got to say this is by far the best forum I've ever had the pleasure of being part of

It would appear that Honda S2000 owners are some of the nicest, most fun and helpful (lest we not forget the epic battle of poor RUSS v CLOVIS + the rest of the world...on the 225 rear vs the 245 debate!) ) people on the planet.

Now if only Takuma Sato will win the F1 GP season for some prime bragging rights!

Peace.

Apa khabar, Hoenda?

As Quick S2K mentioned there was a 1999 S2000 in Japan.
