In an S2000, being lost is as much fun as being on course.

I passed on the Navi on my TL, even though my 1st 3 had it - it just is a irritating gimmick to me now, and I don't do a lot of long trips anyway.

On the S2000 with navi: the roads in japan must be so crowded that bling-bling is the only way to get your jollies - I am glad it is not available here - I would hate to see the S2000 end up like 99% of the Mercedes verts I see: perfectly clear day, temps in the 70's, and they have the top up, windows closed, a/c on, and yakking on a cell phone. Why have a vert at all?

lol no as long as theres s2ks then there will be s2ki.com. Look at al the other cars, rx-7s, supra sites etc.

Also you can find a good s2k used if you find it from a good owner Not all people abuse their s2ks, I rarely VTEC, never ever launched, and keep her in mint condition.
Never vtec-ing in the S is like saving your christmas presents for the following year. How can you not vtec? the car was made to rev right? its like driving a motorcycle like a moped. Maybe you should have got a boxter? I dunno. Just speculating. I could be wrong about the S being made to rev. Why is reving it abusive?

WOW each of you has a good point. I only wish honda changed the name of the 2004 to S2200, it seems like common sense . Then maybe down the road we could buy a S3000 with a high V6









Oh I am dreaming again.
it would be nice if Honda made something along the lines of the Skyline. those skylines are soo sweet. 9k redline, twin turbo godzilla.

Just my opinion, they should stop building the S for 5 or so years, then put out a new and improved S, so for those of us who have an S, the value might retain its self or possibly go up. As I said before just my opinion.
Well interesting thread so far, but here's the RUMORS i'm getting from honda. The MY 05 will be the last year for the S. I already know that there will be absolutley no color changes interior or exterior for 05. I have the color chart at work. Also the RUMORis that they will be replacing the S2000 with something else. no info on that just yet, but i am just assuming they will wait a few years after production stops on the S to bring out their new sports car. Good or bad this i what i can tell you.

BTW i stress the word RUMOR in this post!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nothing with honda is ever official til it hits dealerships.
