I heard it was going to be offered with a twin turbo, 400bhp inline 5.

New interior mod's include seat heaters, seat memory, tilt and telescope steering wheel, adjustable pedals, a 500 watt Monsoon stereo and of course, Rick's leather console cover.

New exterior options include the new "Fast and Furious" inspired "Action" model that will include a four tiered huge carbon fiber wing as well as five, that' right... count 'em five exhaust tips.

Unfotunately, Honda did not change the stock clutch/pressure plate and with 325 lb/ft of torque available at 400rpm (not 4,000) the clutch may not last long but at least nobody will be able to complain about a "lack of torque".



Sorry, I couldn't resist. I am not picking on the original poster but if he/she had done a quick searth he/she would have found a tremendous amount of opinions, rumors, and thoughts on this very subject.

The only changes that are certain are changes in color. No wheels, no engine, no interior, no top, no nothing else.

As a parting thought, don't pay over MSRP in CA. There are a few of us that have been succesful in MSRP or even better without forced options on new, un driven cars. You just have to stand tough and prepare to be as big an ass back to these guys as the gouging pricks are trying to be to the enthusiasts who want this car.

Good luck.

I went to the auto show up in philly and i saw a yellow comptech s2k...completly tripped-out, trust me it had the works, if anyone saw it they would/could back me up, but anyways I asked on of the representatives about the 2002's and said "POSSIBLY MORE LEG ROOM" if its true, then good 'cause i'm 6'4" so i hope the rumor will become reallity.

 

This car has the JDM 16" BBS forged wheels. These are the ones about twelve of us got in the group buy. They are supposed to be lighter and stronger than the 16" cast stock wheels. They are not chromed, and are not directional. It wouldn't surprise me to see AHM import them.

The JDM BBS wheels are only slightly lighter than the export or star type Enkei wheels. 1KG or half of that, I remember weighing them before. It's also documented on the site and in magazines as well. The lightest still goes to Spoon's SW388 ... being at 4.5KG or 5KG each without rubber of course which is extremely my type of upgrade rims.
