All I Think is:Why o why did they change to 2.2 and didn't make the car 264 HP?And Not 9000Rpm?
I cant think why they want to leave the two world records,the first 9000Rpm production car and 120 bhp per liter when before that the Modena held the benchmark of 111Bhp per liter?(For me this is plain stupid,first stupid thing from Honda I recall,Take '99'00'01'02 engine Oscar awards for best 2L engine and leave it?So stupid.)
And lets be objective,Its a facelift to me not a new car.
Our car an this one is an endless design,no matter if a new car comes out this,my car will always be an eyecatcher and and a thing to be impressed with,today,10 years from today,20.
Its one of those things that don't fade out.
Pure beauty,nothing more,nothing less.
When I was buying my car November 2001 I knew that there was a 2002 with a glass window and other minor stuff,But I didn't care,I like and love the car no mater the small stuff,and of course if I bought a car in 2004 and was looking for a roadster I would buy the new s2000,but for now I plan to stick to my '00 s2000 as long as the petrol engines are allowed.
STEFCE.

screw a z06. You could spend thousands less on modifying a civic and have a faster more nimble car.

Yea, plus the Civic is a more aerodynamic vehichle... especially with a bolted on whale tale. I've also heard that the spray paint process makes the car lighter than clear coating which in turn makes the car faster. If you add the led lights to the windshield washer and the IS300 lights to the back, you have one mean machine.

996 look out !!!
