Yep!!! If my wife would let me get rid of her Civic SI, I would be Honda free. Love their products, just really disgusted over how the dealer treated me on a recent trade deal. After 24 new Hondas, they decided to mess me over on a trade value. Toyota was very good to me and I couldn't be happier with their products. I am not hating on Hondas, just disgusted with my dealer of 16 years. Maybe time will lessen the disgust . . . . . .

For the record, I was wrong about the S2000 CR holding it's value and I will admit it. When dealers start discounting the retail price of CR's almost $ 6K to sell them, it's time to find something else to play with. This devaluation killed the rest of us that paid at or close to MSRP.

I've enjoyed this forum and most of the people here. There are some haters and you know who you are, that need to grow up and learn how to have fun without it coming at the expense of someone else.

I just traded my 2008 S2000 CR. I just purchased a new Factory Honda CR car cover prior to trading it. I just paid $ 269.00 for it. Any CR owners interested for $ 150.00 plus shipping?? It has the pockets necessary to accomodate the rear wing, ant., mirrors and front spoiler. Cover and bag included. Silver weather proof material.

Decided I liked my other cars more and the S was just sitting around collecting dust. I just traded it for a new Toyota FJ40 Trail Team limited edition. Best of luck to you guys with your CR's.

oh shnaps I didnt even know they made one of those...

and Here I am with a normal S car cover

Bump for number 1427 sitting in my garage.
And for whatever dude posted that the production is mixed in with the regular s2000 is wrong.
Lastly, has anyone fitted a soft top to the CR?
Im wondering if any of the power wiring is there. I was leaning toward it not being there. But then again I wouldnt mind having to do the manual up and down.

Isn't there some extra bracing in the way of where the soft top stores? Just throwing it out there from what I've heard.

I think so, which is a deal breaker for me. I love the car, but with the mid-summer rain in Tampa, I have to have the option of covering up.

I know a dealer that has a black CR on the showroom floor and it's been there since last December...I'm guessing he would take $32k for it (it has the optional AC and stereo) but who knows...if anyone is interested, send me a PM
