Our car originally had a 10,000 red line. It was on the early Japanese road test cars. Autoexpress October 6 1998 issue has the pictures. When I found out that the redline had been reduced and the 0-60 time increased I phooned and complained (Pretty well obsessed at the time!!!). Still am.

Never mind there's always the next car they make...

I like our headlight position better.

Those roll hoops look cool though.

I love everything about the SSM.
I guess I better order Rick's red badges for my Silver/Black. It looks like Rick carried Honda's idea into production!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the vigor and the 2.5 TL both had 5 cylinder engines.

Plenty of 5-cylinder engine cars are built in Sweden.

They look similar to the JDM 16" Honda/BBS forged wheels a bunch of us bought. Perhaps they're 17" instead of 16". The centers are certainly different.
Here's a link to my photo album of these wheels. I'll be adding some new pics of my car with these 16" BBS wheels today.

Lots of things I like about this car , a couple I prefer with the real S2000. I think I could even have lived with the interior . Where did they put the gear selector? Is it that black blob on the right side?
