Sorry Piondexter,

I didn't know we should not directly quote the articles, but I did give credit

to R&T. I'm sure someone more internet savvy will post the picture soon.

I guess, I get my stuff sooner than everyone else, come to think of it.

Normally it is no big deal, just thought I'd pass along the S2K information,

there's plenty of news for other makes and models.

Please forgive my newbie error,

Thanks,

Jeff

OMG that car would be awesome! Companies never make these because they aren't classified as practical...as if the S2000, Z3, Solstice, Sky, and most other 2 seaters are. I don't get it.

Looks like it would be a gull wing door configuration too.

So I'm new to this forum,

what does IBTL mean?

I guess I get my car mags before everyone else...you'll soon see...

No the new S800 does not look like the 60's version...

It looks more like a really GOOD looking solstice or saturn thingy with a large

oval air intake. The new car has much softer lines than the current S2K.

Hope you see it soon,

Jeff
Wikipedia is your friend.

IBTL - In Before The Lock. It's a forumism indicating that a thread is going to be locked imminently and the poster just wants to get the last post in before it happens.

S2KI generally frowns on retarded rumours and we shut them down before people start beleiving them and have long annoying conversations about nothing.

Still waiting for my issue to arrive, but someone posted a cover of the latest issue on one of the Subaru forums and there is indeed a mention of a new Honda roadster on the cover.

I'm sure that there's an article that talks about the current S as a penalty box, but that's what makes it a good lie. There's no way honda is going t revamp the S800. A 0.8 liter enging wouldn't power a modern day sports car.

the article next to this one is talking about a new rx-7 that is supposed to debut in 2009 or 2010...there is a picture of the new possible honda roadster and rx-7.
i'm hoping they are wrong with both of these considering neither one is impressive.
