I just ordered a couple books that have some coverage on the S2K. These Japanese Car Styling books are design oriented.......showing the concept sketches, clay models, etc. They cover all aspects...American, Asian, European. I own several of their volumes and they are very good quality...full of color pics. Since they are translated from Japanese, there are some bad translations, but not too bad.

The website is http://www.nos.net/carstyling/

Click on 'back issues' and look for volume numbers 127(Nov. 98) & 131(Aug/Sep 99). It seems they have a special going on right now. They are priced at $15.50 each plus shipping. You can also subscribe for $159.00/year(6 issues)

BTW, I have no affiliation with the company......just wanted to share the info!


Mike

Can you scan a couple of pics of the pages with the S2K? I might want to order these two but I would like to see what I am getting first.

Thanks,

Kirk

Thanks. I know I saw a copy of this magazine in Borders last year and I almost bought it. I'm pretty sure I will order them so I can add to my S2000 collection but it would be nice to see them first.

It's actually not a 'magazine'....it's more of a soft bound book. Heavy stock paper, color photos, bad grammar(translation), etc.

I'll post it as soon as I get my copy. It might be a little while though.

I just called the distributor and changed the method of shipping. So, the books should get here by the end of the week.....about the same time as the other S2000 book from Motorboks Intl. 3 S2000 books!

I'll scan some pics from both of the books when I get them.
