Default I miss my S soooooo much

Hi guys. It's been a while since I posted and I have been around the world since I sold my S2000 last September. I traded my S2000 in for a 2002 M3 Convertible, which WAS my dream car until I had one. Then I realized what a pain the ass those cars are to maintain. They are also heavy as hell and feel disconnected compared to the S. Then this guy offers me as much money as I bought the car for like 6 months later so I sold it because I just felt like it. I just took deliverly of a 2005 Acura TL A-SPEC, which I love for the car that it is, but now every time I see an S2000 I feel sad. Hopefully I will be able to pay off this TL quick so I can buy another convertible. I am hoping that Honda decides to come out with another new and improved version by then. Has anyone heard about a "new" S2000 any time soon?

If not, I will gladly buy a 2004 S2000, but it would be nice to get something new and exciting with the same old feel.

I traded my S for a 2002 M3 coupe then to a 2005 M3 convertible. I just got tired of storing cars in the winter and needed a back seat. I still smile when I see an S, esp the newer ones with the nicer wheels

I sold my S for a M, but that was because the S became impractical for my needs (as a daily driver). I miss the nimble handling of the S, and have changed out many of the suspension components of the M to make it feel more "connected"

The M certainly has advantages over the S though, but they are two totally different cars. Yes, maintenance on the M is a rude awakening compared to a Honda.

No I'm sure he means a "new" s2000 with new changes, an updated model basically (body or engine or whatever).
