If this was a coupe it would have been very nice looking, but a convertible with a wing like that :shock: :x

Too little, too late. Even a ton of S2k owners don't like this...

Well it's got a removable hard top.. so you've got the best of both worlds.


I definitely see Jay Leno influences in that front spoiler.. pretty fugly..

I love S2000's, but this is a waste of time. If they wanted to do something special...give us a Type-R with reduced weight and 270+ hp. <<< That would be news.

Actually, you get the worst of both worlds. You won't get the structural rigidity of a coupe, and you don't get the convinent of the electrical convertible top. Plus, you gotta store that freaking thing somewhere coz it won't fit in the trunk.

NO really. The more I look at it, the more im like......WTF.

What American executive influenced them into producing this thing. This is the first automobile from Honda that I think looks like an aftermarket side show.

What the hell is the spoiler for. To add more downforce to the a car with the same power characteristics as before. It is supposed to be much faster around a circuit than a standard model so maybe its there for high speed handling purposes.

This sucks......Im upset....I want a Type-R
