Kinda bizarre! I felt like I was watching a sci-fi movie from the 80s, with the low contrast and muted colors. Like the beginning of Joe versus the Volcano..

Thanks!

Wow!!!

I just spent the last hour surfing a web site by clicking on each link that had an english word in it and trying to figure out where I am going! Super cool post, makes me so proud to own a part of automotive history, not to mention a really sick car, whose blood lines line directly in the heart of JDM.

Great little video that makes you want to go and whip around in your S!!!

Just amazing, its like when i saw the Ferrari 599's production video.

S2000's KINDA competitor's production line is almost 100% automated. I didnt know that s2000 is this much hand built.

No wonder why it had the base price of 36000 in 2009, until it stopped from production

recalling the many conversations about dropping out of VTEC after upshifts in the lower gears, how about this (click to enlarge):

Very good post. Gotta read and watch the rest of it when I get home from work.

Just goes to show you the quality and craftsmanship that goes into Hondas. Also goes to show you how little of the good Honda stuff we get in the US. Honda really needs to turn more of their JDM stuff into USDM and sell them here.
