Not to put down your cousin or anything, but salesman get their information at the same time we do. I am a salesman for Acura in So Cal. And the way we found out about the all new MDX and the all new TL Type S.........Car and Driver and not from who we should have Acura. Acura and Honda keep most of what they do highly secret. The only way I saw the new 07 MDX pics were from the brochures that came in, that we are "hiding" from customers.

It's not a big secret but we salesman no jack about up and coming, future cars. ........and some salesmen... cars in general. So redesigned S2000 for 2008? MAYBE! but not likely

Given the flurry of S2K focus groups Honda did in July and August, a redesign does not seem out of the realm of possibility. I'd up the call to a 'Strong Maybe.'

I hope everybody involved asked for factory turbo instead of retractable hardtop.

My cousin is not the designer of Honda, he's a dealer. He told me when I got an s2000 (about 2 weeks ago) that they're remodeling it in 2008, and that the owner of his dealership told them that at a meeting. You don't have to trust him, and it wouldn't make a bit of difference if you did.

The owner of the dealership won't know any inside information from Honda. The managers don't know anything new either. I worked in Honda sales for about a year and the only thing I knew is what Honda tells us. We even had guys from Honda regional come down to the dealer for meetings and they don't get that kind of information, different department all together. The "my salesman told me..." and "the owner of the dealership told me..." or "I was next to a Honda exec on a plane and he told me..." are so old. Honda is very secretive about their new car designs as you all know. Product planners and people on the projects are not to divulge *any* info about the cars since their job contract clearly states termination. Why would they risk their jobs to leak info out? They know it will all come back to them.

Just wait and the news will surface from Honda. Why get all worked up over rumors that are not verified?
