Yep.

The Canadian 2004 GPW with Red/Black interior is definitley the rarest.

AHM are braindead for not bringing this option to the States.

Here is the direct quote from the July issue of Automoblie Magazine. "With a bigger, richer, and more diverse Honda fixated on robots, hybrids, fuel cells, and jet aircraft, the game has changed since the NSX's hey-day. And with factions inside American Honda pushing instead for a
$ 40,000 Porsche Boxster rival, support for a new NSX was further diminished". I find the Porsche comment interesting as the current S2 is MORE than a match for the std. Boxster. The article goes on to say " For enthusiasts, it's a worrisome sign. First the CRX disappeared and then the Prelude. There might not be another S2000, and now the NSX has effectively been read its last rites. Sounds like pure speculation regarding the future of our S2s. Stay tuned!

Us owners can only hope that production will stop. I wanted it stopped a couple years ago. But remember the rumors of the S only being produced for 3 years? Keep your fingers crossed!

I want the S to continue on in the same tradition as the Porsche 911. Constantly evolving into something better with the next change. Although some would argue the 04 was a slide backwards: I see it as an evolution into a more compitant rendition of a viseral assult weapon. I recently drove an MY04 and found it much more forgiving at the extreme limit.

If Honda decides to cancel the AP1 then so be it; however I like all true Honda enthusiasts, will be saddened.

anyone ever hear about the s2200 yeah the one with the 2.2 a long time ago... i don't think this engine was "NEW"

and i heard about this in january of 2003 when i bought my left over my02 seb/red...


the person at the dealer said buy this car and honda will soon stop making these... this is a celebration model... quote " i doubt this will go on future into production in the next 3-5 years... this car will be rare and hold it's value and you'll make some profit after you sell it..." well that is what i heard 1 year ago
