Just make sure you don't have a bonus room on top of the garage and you have enough room to stack two cars on top of each other (+more)
I think you need Min. of 10ft up to 16ft ceiling?

Personally, I hope they can will come up with a Hybrid S2000, but that will be too heavy. I guess I can start saving for the DualNote! At least they can modified the FC with I-VTEC and probably modify the cams and increase the bore a little???

I heard the 2004 S2K was going to be enhanced the following ways:
1) 4.0L V-10
2) Fully retracting hardtop
3) Full carbon fibre treatment
4) 18" super Bling Bling action wheels to hold
5) Huge 6 pot Brembo brakes
6) Full wood interior becomes an option
7) CD/Navigation/touchscreen climate control
8) 900 watt Monsoon eardrum buster stereo

hrmm..... I say is that...... I doubt honda will make such a car..... if you look at what type of cars honda make it seems like they make "small tuned engines" and about the guy who said they need to tune the s2k engine more..... I don't think that is possible..... I think it is already tuned to the fullest (as far as stocked wise).

Also, I am still going to get a s2000 (well hopefully I am), and right now I think the body it already has is flawless... I don't believe there is a better way to make it look better... just my thoughts.

also, I would like to add something... about them adding a inline 6 or so? I don't think so... cause I believe that will just throw the car's 50/50 ratio off..

On one hand, I am interested in news about the S2000. On the other hand, who cares. Whether or not Honda modifies the S2000, discontinues production completely or makes a million of them, it makes no difference to me. I already have one of the first ones made, and I would neither sell it or nor buy a new one.

A new S2000 with larger engine was mentioned in the latest Kiplingers.

The story came out 09/12/02 in Auto Express (England) by Peter Lyon titled New S2200 On Tin-top Form. It's considered a questionable report.

I'd like to see Honda retro fit the CL Type-S's V6 into the S2K. This way, the Torque numbers will better match the Hp.

My sources come from the top brass and if you check my past info it has always been 100% accurate....

So your saying your information came straight from a big Potato at AH to you?..Hmmmm I dont think so. Someone please raise the BS flag. That head of AH would have his head on a plate if he ever released that kind of info. Until you show this information in a form of a newspaper/magazine article or any reputable source this information should be regarded as Bull Shit....

peace
