I'd like to see a true sequential manual.Alot more like a real F1 car and no worry of missed shifts.

I don't think this will happen on a car in the 30k price range.

my guess would be for a little more interior room, real guages for those who want them, a very small v8, say 3.0 with 300 hp, larger tires, brakes, and wheels, beefed up suspension/drivetrain, erzatz traction/stability control, price climbs to near 39,000.

it is not that i would like all thse changes, but i think the market will demand them.

I agree, the S2000 was made for Honda's anniversary....not as a car to put in their lineup for a long time. I hope 04 is the last year. Later down the road in say 10-15 years make another S. For those who know the history behind our car, its not the first nor will be last im sure.

#2 is already happening with the F-22 in my opinion (based on the dyno of my car anyway).

The rest... I'll wait and see. I'm really happy with the current car. ;D

My really good 'source'(see Bull$#!T) at Honda tells me that it'll come with these options.
Flux Capacitor
Larger Blinker Fluid Resovoir
Spoon Motor as an option(300 HP NA)
Altezza Tailights(standard)
APC Windshield Banners
Forward-Hinging Hood
Lime Green, Moonrock, and Hugger Orange will be available

Ok, I've had enough fun. Basically what I am trying to say is there is no use in speculating what is happening in 2 years when Honda is so tight-lipped about products coming out in the next Model Year even a month before the new models are out. My specualtions ^ are about as credible as anyone else's.

There will be an all new S2000 and NSX for either '05 or '06. The S will debut first, than the NSX. Read this rumor in some magazine last year.
