Model Year changes. 00-03
I am considering buying a used S2000. While I am quite familar with the basics of the car, I am not sure what or how to tell the differences and details from year to year.
What all was changed for each year? 00 - 03?
Thanks

Quick and dirty.
Body:
Glass rear window in '02. Leather wrapped shift knob - '02. Suzuku Blue introduced. '03 - white/red became white/tan
Engine:
'02 - Tranny improved. Clutch disk changed. '03 new oil jet bolts on all cars.
Recommend you try the search function as well.

Sorry to bump this real old thread... but when I try the search function none of the links work. So, what are the changes from 2000-2002? Thanks.
The list of changes between '00 and '01 is tiny.
The list of changes between '02 and '03 is tiny.
The list of changes between '01 and '02 is huge.
- revised tranny
- revised suspension
- glass window
- rear window defroster
- revised gauges display over the tach
- taller 3rd brake light
- new colors
- two pins on floor to hold carpet in place
- vinyl surround in top of tranny and not the tacky floor carpet
- revised tail lights
The list goes on an on, back in the day I remember all the changes we could think of was something like 21 or 23 things. Just buy an '02 or '03.

I know this is insignificant but I noticed that for 2003's all of the pictures for the AC controls are in white, where as older models the defroster logos are orangish red. I love my 2003!

Check the FAQ - there's a big list of details by year.
