I have started the S2000, a couple of times, in weather ~45ºF. The shifting is slow and shift, for about 5-10 minutes. Within a mile or two, it's shifting as normal. This is with Royal Purple Synchromax. I presume the car had OEM Honda stuff, in it when I purchased it used. I don't remember much about the shifting at that time. Seemed good. I replaced all fluids (except radiator) --- right after I bought the car. A side note, bought at 40K miles. There was quite a bit of metal deposits on the transmission plug. Not much on the diff. There has not been much since (on either).
