Summary of '06 S2000 Changes
20 lbs heavier
Redesigned road wheels
Redesigned steering wheel
New color, Laguna Blue
Daytime running lights
Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA), a combination of computer controlled throttle and individual wheel braking to control sudden changes in vehicle behavior. VSA has a turn-off switch where the defrost button (moved) used to be
Brake assist
Basic warranty is 3 year/36,000 but the powertrain was extended to 5 years/60,000 mile
Drive-by-wire throttle system which uses a computer sensor to input throttle as opposed to pulling on the throttle cable
Exterior temperature gauge
New seats; they no longer have seatback pocket and headrest speaker system is gone
Speakers in the roll-hoops
Sebring and white only come with a black interior
CARB emissions rating is now LEV-2
Passenger-side airbag cutoff
HP is now stated at 237 - due to the auto industry wide change in how HP is calculated
If I missed anything, let me know and I will add to the list.
