It's a Honda afterall. What did you expect?

 

22k miles 2nd owner top 1" rip still under warrantee, they are ordering the top for me right now.

 

There are no issues. Most of the issues happened with the 00-01 models, and some with the 02s, but thats about it. Things like diffs breaking only happen from abuse, and top wear.... its a convertible - all tops wear.

I guess some people mention that their 1-2 shift is notchy, but personally, I think they are just not used to a direct linkage. The AP2 got upgraded engine components, upgraded shifter components, upgraded transmission components - a whole bunch of stuff to make the car more robust. You can read about it in the FAQ on changes between 03 and 04.

 

Can you explain the maintenance I'm supposed to perform to avoid soft top wear?

 

04, 26k miles, no issues, just reg maint.

 

04, 51k. No problems. This car is so solid that it is performing perfectly after needing a new driver door (T-boned), and a new front bumper assembly and cover (T-boning). What is it with me and other drivers running red lights? That is another topic altogether.

Point is - regular maintenance (all fluids) and a great body shop (if needed) and this car is as solid as on day 1.

I love my S.

Now let me tell you about cars with problems - SAAB, Pontiac, Buick. Well, maybe when I have a few hours to waste.

 

MY05, 22tkm, no Problems !
