How is this sad??? This is FANTASTIC, the sooner they discontinue it the more rare the car will be, the more heads it will turn. I hope they just let it die and don't come out with some "s3000" or something, sequels always tend to suck, whether they be movies or cars.


S600 was before the S2000

does that mean the s2000 sucks because it was a sequel

That car suffered from severe drivability problems, and because of the rotary engine design, tended to fail emissions tests in many states. (In 2001, I lived in Massachusetts, and the emissions test ended up costing me over $600 in compliance attempts before qualifying for a two year waiver). Our S2000 is a reliable delight to own.

Years of great motoring ahead for current S2000 owners. Let's not shed too many tears, and let us hope that a demand factor develops in the future - I am not averse to owning a collectible.
Here ... here!



We can in the meantime enjoy our rides to the fullest!

I guess Honda wasn't really make any profit from the S2K as the new ones have been sitting at dealers for quite some time.

RIP S2K.
