I've been driving around aimlessly everytime its warm for hours and I see maybe 1 at most other S2000. Other than meets, its rare for me to see another one on the road. My other car, an Acura TL, I see at least 1 every 5 minutes on the road.

i see one at my work's parking garage (other than mine), and one other one in my apt building's parking garage. aside from those, i see maybe 1-3 per week on average. i still get excited when i see another one though, especially on the highway. they just look so good on the move

In a related question... Does anyone have the sales numbers for them through the years? is that readily accessible information? For the life of me, I can't find it.

Well, there's a total of less than 50,000 of them on the streets of North America (Honda sells about 400,000 Accords every year).
A good percentage of them work in the colorado center in santa monica

I appreciate the help guys. I like to think of myself as a good internet sleuth but it seems I kept running into a wall with this one. All the sites I found would be glad to give you huge in depth intel reports but you had to be a big company and pay big fees to use them. Anyways, thanks.

Don't feel bad when I first got mine in Jan. 2002 an 18 year old kid a mile away got one the same color (Spa Yellow). On the bright side however he totaled it 3 months later. I typically see only 2-3 a week usually the same ones. Still a very rare car compared with 350Z's. And wait till the new Mustang has been out for 6 months, they'll triple the S2000 production numbers by then.

Yep - I need to got to meets, drives & tech days to see other S2000's - I see about 2 a month in my area - sometimes I go for weeks at a time without seeing one (other than mine)

...and I've never seen another Berlina with Tan interior
