Default hardtop operation and picts

The hardtop is super simple to use. You just latch it in the front like the soft top and then there are two other latches right to the side of your seats. Very cool...enjoy! I hope you like em.

what do you guys think of the hardtop and S2K in yellow?
I think it looks pretty cool. I like the look of the hardtop better then the soft-top or top down.

Looks really really yummy. Love that yellow, 2ed best color. Would look more uniform without windshield tape. However it does not look better than topless. Almost any car will look better without a top and the S2000 was designed to be topless. The hard top after all was an after thought, but it does look neat. Would like to see more pictures.

windshield tape?? You mean the black outline around the windshield?? I can't really take that off. I disagree...I am not a convertible fan. Had it not been for the other attributes of the S2000, I wouldn't have gotten it. But, with that said...the S2000 is a great looking convertible! I just really like hardtop coupes.

Second best color...I assume you like red the best...hehehe... again...I completely and utterly disagree!! respectively of course!!

Looks very sweet. Nice wax job on that paint too.

Did anyone else get a mailer from American Honda advertising the "best accessory" for your Stook? A new hardtop.

I got this mailer a couple weeks ago. You should have seen the look on my fiancee's face. She just roller her eyes.

You live in S. CA she said. You never have the top up anyways she said. You wanted a convertible she said.

I guess my lust for a hardtop isn't that evident. Sure, I'll almost never have it on, but it sure looks cool when it is on.

You know what is also cool about the hardtop?? i have three different cars now!!

The hardtop makes it look so much different that people will just stare at it....with the wtf? look on their face. Also, it sounds totally different with the hardtop on. the engine is less pronounced but the exhaust and gear box are more pronounced. Under heavy accel...it is really no quieter then the rag top...less road noise, less engine noise, more exhaust and gear box noise. It actually sounds the best with the hardtop on. Anyway, just another cool thing i noticed while driving it....i love this car!!

where do you store the hardtop?

btw, can one person put the hardtop up by himself? How long does it take then?

Thanx!
