This is really sad. Honda came out with the CR and Type S and none of these has anything engine upgrade. WTF!!! We might as well get a regular S2000.

Very very interesting article. I've heard about all these rumours back then in 2003 about Honda hinting their development in an S2000-R, but I never knew Honda Japan actually invited people to test drive that thing. And I didn't know it was such a dramatic change in power and braking from the standard S2000 either.
Nevertheless, too bad Honda decided to scrap the TypeR plan in 2003, and only decided to proceed with the AP2 route. As much as I love the AP2, I would be happier had they come up with that kind of monster. I would be willing to pay 50 grand for that thing if Honda really did lighten up the car, shoved in a bigger engine, and got better suspension/braking systems to the extent that the article was saying. Those changes would truly bring the S2000

Is that artcile BSing? Or is that for real? If that's real ...

Wow- That S2000R thing seemed like it could have been a winner. Too bad they axed it... I will have to bookmark that page. Great find!
