I think it's pretty cool that they're doing this
yeah, buts it 4 years too late. where is the new model? honda did the same with the nsx. make a bunch of "special" editions that are basically the same car with a little upgrade and a badge.

Well looking at Honda's past they probably will reduce some weight, Add a higher FD ratio, New cams,Increase the redline about 500RPM, Give it a 20HP gain, The probably offer a new color, different rims, stiffer suspenion and a new Front/Rear Lip kit

This might actually have some significant changes though - don't knock it until you see what it is. Anything beforehand is just speculation

. I know this is what so many are hoping for... lmao. Sounds like the difference between a TL and TL type S honestly. Ok, yes a few things are different. Different enough to warrant a hefty hike upwards in price? Maybe, maybe not. I guess it all depends on who you encounter.

LOL! I'm thinking the same thing, especially if GPW comes with Blk/Red interior like 07.

Probably lose 100 pounds or so, stiffer suspension, hardtop and some stickers.

They're doing this to phase out the S2000.

So I guess 2008 will have an S2000!

9 years production, wow who would of thought? 9 years and not a single HP more! Is this a world record?
