haha, you haven't changed since CRSX much.
Probably because I actually possess common sense. I have to laugh at some people when it comes to topics like "when is the S2000 being discontinued"

No matter when production stops I have no doubt that parts will continue to be made and developed.. look at the Supra, its been dead since 98 and parts for it are everywhere.. companies will continue to make aftermarket parts for cars that are worth it.
Well, as far as OEM parts go, they HAVE to continue being manufactured. It's the law. I can't remember how many years after the car stops production, though. 15 ish.

Aftermarket companies will continue to develop parts if they can still make money. We still see the odd new part for Integra's and old Civics, too.

I think its 10 years is the time frame they have to make OEM parts past the final production date.

I hope Honda does not discontinue production of the S2000. I would rather see the S2000 evolve and improve over the coming years. I know it's unlikely, but I'd still like to see Honda shoehorn a V6 under the hood or release an S2000 coupe version.
Hallelujah.

i personally wish that the s2000 is mass produce.. why you ask?? so the aftermarket parts will be
much cheaper to afford.. its really ridiculous on how much aftermarket parts cost for this car.. i understand that its one of the best built hondas, but in the future theres going to be cars much better and faster than this.. for example, remember the z cars 240, 260, 280??? they were mass produced car.. it was some of the best performance car built by japan.. 20-30 years later, people still remember the performance and technology that it brought to the compact sport car arena.. there still selling these cars used from half to double the original price depending on the condition.. what im really trying to say is, if you think the value of the car gonna go up because of its limited production, i think you bought the wrong vehicle.. unless you think your gonna keep your car for another 15-25 years.. again another example, supras and skylines have a high resale value before it became a classic or antiques, why?? because japanese considered those cars true japanese muscle cars (and that stupid fast and furious movies. i remember before the movie, you could pick up a supra for half of what there asking nowadays..).. hondas cant flex muscle like that!! look at the nsx, you can pick up the earlier version for the 1/3 of the original cost.. and isnt it a limited production car from honda??
