Default Canadian Vs. US Models

Hey all,
A conversation with a fellow member stemmed the curiosity behind this thread. In my mind, I've come up with a few differences that I can think of, between Canadian and U.S. Spec S2000 models. The list is as follows:

1) Day Time Running lights standard on Canadian cars.
2) Lack of Grand Prix White/Red Leather Combo colour choice in Canada
3) Lack of Spa Yellow Colour choice in Canada (Only 48 yellows designated for 2001)
4) Odometer/Speedometer comes set to KM as
opposed to MPH in Canada

Can anyone else think of any differences, as minor as they may be? Im curious thats all.

On the Spa Yellow note, or any of the other colours I don't think any of them came as a package. It was just the base model and thats it.

Especially no package with Hartop and Car Cover.

Sometimes I run with the car set to MPH just to see the lower miles hah.

Spoke to Honda Canada today

2003 S2000 Canadian Edition will be a Gas / Cow Pie hybrid.



In all seriousness, I suspect there is no difference at all in the two countries models aside from say the Spa Yellow package and what you mentioned above Asif.

It's quite possible. US Corrado's got a 4l tank, Canadian Corrado's got a 7l tank, as an example.
