Your third one? Have you just had a bad run of luck, or do you have a problem making up your mind?

My car will be two years old in June ("that" sure went by in a hurry!) and I've currently got just over 29k miles on it. I can't imagine getting rid of it at this point for anything short of totalling it out in an accident or it getting stolen.

Best of luck with whatever you wind up with!

Drive Safe,
Steve R.

Can't seem to find a 04/05 RIO yellow anywhere around here for a reasonable price so I will be picking up a new 06 for $31,200 @ my local dealer

- Speakers are difinately updated. They are not paper, and feature a rubber surround. They appear to be Pioneers based on the color of the speaker (just a guess, they were not labeled at all).
fyi my 02 was the same

The door speakers changed in 02, from paper cones to polycarbonate cones.

Indeed. It seems that it is Honda's desire to make the S a more (gag!) commuter-freindly car and thereby broaden its appeal.
Oh yeah, damn Honda for putting an Air conditioning on any of the models... Oh, and if they didn't have to have the top come down, they could make it more ridgid and lower weight at the same time... cloth seats are lighter too... /sarcasm off

The comfort features they added are so minor compared to the comfort features that are already on the car. Plus, I think they improve more in the way of performance with the DBW, than they reduced by the little comfort adds.

Seriously though, I completely appreciate your loyalty to the S2000's original intent, however, I don't think the 06MY changed enough to say they are "selling out"... ;-)
