Confirmed today by Honda in Tokyo (Honancho): no 2200 engine will be sold in Japan. JDM catalogs to be available from mid October.

 

Japanese owners get a CHOICE between the 2.0 and 2.2. Lucky them,

 

I thought it was released a while back

No, NO CHOICE, only the 2000cc will be available in Japan, same as in Europe.

In short: the 2200 was made only to "please" the North American market.

 

soooooooooo glad I got my MY03.

 

personally i think the new s2200. is just honda's bend over.
they are just trying to boost up the sales..

and that's why i am even more glad that i bought the ealier model.

 

That is wrong then, North America getting the watered down version. Japan always keeps the best for themselves.

 

No FormerH22a4, Honda responds to market demand. Think about what this says about the North American market NOT what it says about Honda..

 

i have to agree with that, but it is just disappointing how honda has no faith in itself and the market.
S2200 is just simply a product that says Z350 and cars like that are the way to go!...

cuz to me S2000 is one of the most presentable pure blood for honda in north america, and they are turning back on what they believe in.
