Default Five Months of Ownership

I ordered my 04 in early October and took delivery off the truck in late October. I handed-over the keys to my 03, CL-S with 9100 miles and drove the S2K home on a Friday night.

Now at just over 3500 miles, everything about the car is as I expected, or better. The S is my daily driver. 90% of the miles are driving to/from work. I usually drive the 5.8 miles home for lunch so that

I've had mine for 2 1/2 months now. When I bought it, it had 24, 979 miles on it. Now, it has 31, 050...obviously I can't stop driving this thrilling roadster

I have owned a new MY04 since Feb. I ordered the car in Oct and waited 4 months. The car handles great. I wish it could come with heated seats but it was not an option. One noticable thing is the leather problem. At 350 miles, it already showed wrinkles and flat spots. There is also clicking noise from the top when my car go over bumpy surfaces, I can't figure out what is causing the noise. Anyone has similar problems?

Someone always has to throw that jab. I don't get it. I bought MY 03 last July and I love everything about. I'm sure I would be just as thrilled with an '04.

I bought a MY03 in August and just reached 5000"smiles" on the odo and all I can say is thank you Honda.
I had considered restoring an S600 or S800 but when I first saw this car on the showroom back in 2000 I knew one day there would be one in my garage

Once again THANK YOU HONDA !

Does your 04 have the infamous 2 gear crunch that the older models have? Did they remove this from the 02's? Just currious.
