Post First Offical Picture of the 06 S2000

http://www.vtec.net/news/news-item?news_item_id=385495

Just thought I would post this here curtiousy of mulderato since many of us don't regularly check the "Official MY 20XX" Thread. Looks to be the first official pics of the 06 S2000. Wheels look hideous to me. Time to buy an 05.

Thanks for listing it, I figured a thread like this might locked up so I didn't bother. Maybe those "in the know" will chime in...

I'm lost. I saw the 6 small pics of the Honda range from the Odyssey brochure. I clicked on the S2000 and saw a slightly larger version. But the wheels looked the same as 04-05 to me.

No prob, mulder. Thank you for finding it in the first place! I figure that this is pretty big news so it warrants a post in s2000 talk.

Looks different to me. Although the pic is pretty small - I could be wrong! What does everyone else think?

if you look carefully, i think the spokes are slanted a bit. maybe its just the small picture that makes it look that way.

Those wheels are a pretty obvious photoshop job. Look closely at the rear wheels- they lack depth and dimension, which is a sign of taking a 2d draft view of a wheel and trying (very poorly) to apply it to a 3d view.

Honda has usually been pretty good with their stock alloys, I wouldn't judge negatively based on this small, manipulated, photo.

I agree. The wheels are differant. MY04 wheels are not symetrical. The spokes are || || || || ||, where the pic shows | | | | | | | | | |. They have the same number of spokes. just aranged differantly.
