Default The End of The S?

I have talked to 3 dealers in the last 4 months and they have all told me that 06 will be the last year for the S. They all said note the changes horse power down from 240 to 237 , headrest speakers included,all things Honda does to its last run cars before and change of model year or end of a run. Just like they did with the accord special editon and the civc? I had one dealer tell me that the 07 S will be hard top convetalbe and more mass friendly! Normaly I think all dealers are full of crap telling you what ever to buy now, it is strange that the same story came from 3 dealers in two differnt cities.
So does anybody no the real story?
Thanks
Bill

The HP changes were due to changes in the rating system, or something like that. Most car makes had to change their HP ratings. The headrest speakers, wheels, tractions control, etc. were all updates. After investing all that money into updating the car Honda will not retire it next year. I'll be taking bets up to the date the 07's are delivered to dealerships.

What, just because you got the same from 3 different DEALERS means the information is valid? Are you that gullible? (Oops, that was a rhetorical question. The fact that you are yet another person to post this tells lots.) Believe it when it happens. For the time being, please join the "lottery" ............................

PS. We've had a very long lull in NOT having anyone post up this topic. Congratulations for breaking the silence and being another "first".

God, I hope it's the last year, just so I don't have to see these threads anymore.

The art of sales is to create a sense of urgency in the mind of the buyer.
