Thank you for supporting my post. I have been getting beat up for the past two days from this post. But I still hold true to what I have stated. And these guys have done nothing but prove my point. Many people are in denial. Well, If the S2000 does come out with an engine with more torque, I don't want to see any of these guys in line to buy a car.

you're still missing the point... you can't just have more torque for free. i said sure, if you can have more low end torque without losing anything else (i.e. a heavier, less responsive car/motor, or loss of top end power) then sure, i'm all for it. but you can't.

everything is a compromise, and what we are saying is that we like the choices honda has made.

Rest assured there will be a dealer mark-up, and don't expect relability numbers anywhere near a Honda.
