Sorry. I forgot.

Part of my early riddle is, "even if you want a CR, doesn't mean you will be able to get one".

Well if they require a competition license, I got that covered If the dealer wants a 20k markup, well that's just retarded

Here's my guess:

- Modest increase in power (~20hp)
- Lightweight hardtop
- Weight reduction (~50 to 100 lbs)
- Limited colors
- Modest suspension changes
- Lighter weight wheels and stickier tires
- Limited production maybe 500-1000 per year

You mean buy one used in 2 years I refuse to pay more than MSRP and if that means no CR for me, then it means a nicer house instead lol I can live with that.

On a serious note...if this comes out as a coupe (permanent hardtop) and is not in the OEM hardtop shape....I'm getting one to store in the proverbial barn shed.

I've been looking for a good condition S800 coupe, let me tell you...they are hard to find in whole.

The CR could be just that 30 years from now if it follows the S800 "plan".
any S800 is difficult to find let alone the coupe version. If you're not picky, there are a handful of S600 coupes floating around as well.

i sure hope they tweak the ECU some more. Why Honda is so over protective with them is beyond me. Open her UP!
