I actually do like the CR, but only wish that Honda could have made it a little more hardcore like Brembo brakes, real recaro seats, another 20hp, kept the soft top in case it does rain while driving with no hard top ... otherwise I'm cool with it.

ppl complain about the s2000 having no real update so bang for buck is not really there anymore compared to year 2000....BUT...

because of that, the s2000 is cheaper to buy now new. It has more things (ex. VSA) and cost less that year 2000. 2007 go for less than $28k new.

I would certainly like to know where in the country this is taking place so I can go and buy one there. (This has to be about wholesale/dealer cost.) Do please apprise us where they are they being sold for $28k.

Thanks

Thanks. It sounds like S2000's are a glut on the market in SoCal. Likely would be a good place to shop for an S2000 CR as well.

Have bought a car in California before; no California sales tax. You pay Nevada sales tax when you register the car in Nevada (which is less than California's sales tax).

Here is some info on that "Peak Power Indicator"......

The LED begins blinking when the revs are approaching the range of maximum power, and goes solid when it's in the range of maximum hp.

I personally wouldnt get one...

Id rather have a "Normal" S2000 with stupid sticky tires.

Id throw on like a CAI or something just to get that extra couple HP.
