You guys are ballers. 15k isn't insignificant in my book.
I'm lucky to get a Miata with an engine at this point. . . some serious Fred Flintstone auto-x right now. . .

its true...i work for honda and the production for the new s2000 has begun. They are still trying to decide whether its going to be an s3000 3.0 TT or just the S which is a 3.5 v6 with 350 horsepower. unfortunately the car is much heavier and very similar to the size of the 350z. it will have the same 49/51 weight displacement and have a hard top convertable but the drag is definently going to be that its impossable for it to handle as nicely as our 2800 pound s2ks.

not going to happen. They've already canceled the V10 NSX.. what makes you think they'll produce a 3.0TT motor, or a 3.5 v6? Speculation.. that's all it is. Show me your "sources"... Maybe by 2012 they'll have a CONCEPT of something but I still doubt it..
