It rides pretty stiff, I didn't know any better though because I have never had a car like this before. I am glad to have found this on the forum, otherwise I would be like that one guy with 18k miles on his car with them on.

I bought my 2000 S2000 used with 2000 miles. After finding this site, I checked and sure enough, they were all there. The previous owner drove for two years with these in, never got to really see how the car handles.

Please call American Honda. This happens WAY too often, and without communicating ABOVE the dealer level, might never get fixed.

Here's the number to "Honda Customer Relations"......
1-800-999-1009

Give 'em hell!

I agree. Happens too much.

But, I still encourage you to call.

If they don't know about their dealer network failing to complete inspection items, it may never get addressed.

I've been lucky enough to get both cars w/o the spacers, so I don't have any personal experience with the situation. However my impression based on reading posts from others is that there's really nothing you can do to get any compensation. Call corporate and give the dealer a bad review. I don't know what corporate can really do to the dealers, though.
