Default Awaiting delivery of 3rd MY04 S2000 -.....

I'm awaiting delivery of my 3rd MY04 S2000.

Here's the story!

Honda dealer (UK) crashes S2000GT driving it from storage compound to car dealership (2 miles) to prep it for delivery on March 1st. Apparently the drvier lost control on a bend as a result of suspension not working due to rubber blocks left in coils during transportation (!)

I accept a repalcement S2000 Roadster MY04.

Replacement S2000 GT is now on order for delivery in 3 months time.

Still - its given me the chance to change the colour from Silver to Moonstone.

So....if any of you are awaiting delivery of your S2000, make sure the dealer knows about the rubber blocks in the suspension!

GT is just an s2000 fitted with the factory hardtop

No pun intended though!

And Darnic, if you can, please post pics when you get the car for the benefit of those of us who don't have access to the moonrock color!

I'm curious!

Congrat on the purchase and hope you have better luck this time!

Is it just the pics or does the UK spec look lower? Seems to be less wheel gap. Thought I remembered something about a suspension option in the UK. If so, anyone over pond yonder want to hook a yankee up?
