So there seems to be many new threads asking & talking about the 04 S2000. Would it be a good time to separate S2000 talk into 2000-2003 S2000 Talk and 2004 S2000 Talk? It is almost like a new model...

 

Sorry but the MY04 hype has begun. Soon, the MY00 - MY03 S2000's won't even exist. Just like the MY94-MY98 Mustangs (Soft and circular) and MY93-MY97 Comaro's (Open lights).

How can this be? Because the everyday drivers will destroy theirs and the carphiles will hide their famous F20C powered S2000 in their garage. So all we will see soon are the MY04's and above.

 

In my humble opinion, so far all S2000 are the same generation. A few changes here and there does not constitute a seperation. Take the 90-91 and the 92-94 eclipse. Slight exterior design changes, and signifigant motor changes. But they are all first generation Eclipses. And by signifigant motor changes I mean things that will be remembered, not engine redesigns. Just food for thought.

 

This has been discussed among the mods and admins already and it was determined, as said above that the 04 is still a first gen.
