Default Settlement with Acura/Honda over.

Finally, settle with Honda. I bought a Acura Tsx back May and right out of the dealership the car had a problem. It will drift to the left and creaking from the windshield. The dealership stall many weeks to have these issues fixed. Met with a field rep and he confirmed the problem. They agree to swap a new Tsx after two month of hassel. By that time I refused it and wanted my money back. They denied my request, but willing to swap a new S2000 with the difference of price.

So, now I'm back with my beloved S2000. I had one and sold a 00 model due to financial difficulties. I love the new change. Everything excepted Honda soften the handling a tad bit. The ride is slightly softer and steering is slightly longer. I do miss the sharp and quicker response of the 00 model. Either way, I'm glad I got my S2 back again.

If I could choose I will stick with the 04. I like the changes a lot even if Honda sacrificed the handling just a tad bit. I do like the new motor and look.

Yes, I have the rio yellow. How did every guessed?

get an alignment, I prefer my 04 to my 00 after I aligned it. they come with almost zero camber in the front and it really kills turn in.

Get it lowered and have an alignment done - add camber to the front and rears (im running neg 2 on the rears and neg 1 on the fronts)

Car now sticks like sh*t on a shovel
