S2000: Shared platform?

Is the S2000 a unique platform (chassis) or is it shared with other Honda cars?

BTW: it's just a bit odd that the spell check for this site kicks-out "S2000"!

The S2000 is currently a completely unique platform, built from the ground up to be a convertible.

Let's see... How many other Honda vehicles might share a rear-wheel drive platform with the S2000?

Now built in Suzuka along with other low-volume models.

Yes, the platform, engine, tranny, differential...basically everything but standard stuff like bolts, wiper motors, alternators and stuff like that is unique to the S2000.
