To all that feared DBW. Your fears were unfounded. I just went from a MINI Cooper S with also DBW to an 06 S2000. The MINI had some ocassional bogging down at quick throttle input. The S2000 is beyond perfect. No issues whatsoever.

The wheels look beautiful in real life. You must see it in person.

The new texture on the seats look also wonderful. Pictures do no justice.

Above all, you can get 06's for invoice already, at least, in Florida.
I'm glad to read some more positive comments about the DBW. I too have found it to be very smooth/seamless. Much smoother in all respects than my '05 was (not that the '05 was bad).

They're good for a few CD's. The point is that you have more usable space without sacrificing the room that the car had available. Just like the AP2's did with the larger pocket in the door. Sure it's small and most people don't use it, but it doesn't take up any more space than the older ones and it just gives you a few more options for places to put things.

Physically it would appear the parts will fit. However, the ECU in the new cars incorporates DBW and simply wiring up the SC kits may not work as they were designed for the older ECUs.

Yep that big 'ol glove box holds three - maybe four standard size garage openers.
I can't yet figure out what otherwise will fit in there?
Anything I can think off would slide from side to side like coins, a pen, cigar tube, tire pressure gauge and that would drive anyone crazy.
So what could you use this box for?
Looks like envelopes could slide nicely in there. You can store all your service documents in there??

I love my new 06 Laguna Blue Pearl S. Photos don't do it justice. Everyone comments on the color.

Glove boxes are for Miata and Soltice owners! Real men don't need storage.

What's that new defroster button in between the hazards and roof button?
