Is there an ISBN number for the black book? I have an extra copy (used) of the Carney book that I will trade with if any one has one.

You could just list your asking price here and keep it in the community if that interests you? GLWS.

While it is hardbound, calling it a book could be considered slightly deceiving. It is a very nicely done promotional piece (marketing brochure) that totals less than 30 pages in all. Honda released another version of this exact same content that was spiral bound instead of a hardback, and it did not include a protective slipcover. The hardback version is a nice piece to have if you are into collectibles as Honda only put together a few thousand of these items. The Carney book is an actual book and much more informative.

The other book worth seeking out is the "Honda S2000 Performance Portfolio" put out by Brooklands Books. This book contains reprints of 36 different magazine reviews and articles on the S2000 throughout it's production lifetime that when combined result in 120 pages of content. It contains coverage of both the AP1 and the AP2 versions of the car. The reproduced content comes from a variety of sources, mostly US based magazines but also quite a few pieces that originated overseas. Some people put this book up on Ebay for crazy prices, but you can still find it on offer elsewhere online for around $30.


A variety of Honda S2000 literature.

While not all that often, as far as I know they still occasionally do come up for sale every now and then both on Ebay and at a few automotive focused booksellers.

I've been waiting for this forever:

Seems to be terminally stuck in "Coming Soon" status. Anyone know if/when we'll ever see it?
