Default S2000 down Insight up

The full text is on the temple of VTEC site: http://www.vtec.net/news/news-item?news_item_id=548561

Honda's rockin! That's good news!

I'm amazed that 320 Insights have sold so far this year, over 175 from last year at this time... Think gas prices have no effect? Think again. Civic sales (not shown in my snippet) are doing really great. That shows that Honda customers are smart -- the new Civic is a helluva nice car.

But, our favorite car isn't doing so hot, kids... we're down 11.8% from last year. Get out and buy more!

Stop buying S2000's!
Force Honda to come up with a replacement.
Its better to burn out than to fade away.
(Like the NSX.. only 5 sold.... )
