Default Hard to start my S2000 whats the problem?!

Im pretty upset, my s2000 seems to be having a hard time starting... what could it be? Is it the starter, the alternator or the battery or something else?
and its cold outside (about 40F maybe 35F)
Any info is much appreciated!
Thanks

Most likely a weak battery. Winter is when people find out their battery is weak. When it gets colder, it might not start at all. Have the battery tested.

You need to be more specific. Hard to start could mean that it cranks easy but takes a lot of revolutions before it starts up. It could mean that it cranks slowly. Maybe it starts to fire on one cylinder but the other cylinders don't kick in. It's hard to diagnose the problem without knowing the symptoms.
