Now what is your point Malloric? Are you some kind of passive-aggressive trying to hinge entire arguments on a minor detail? (Let me guess, you'd try to get out of speeding tickets because they got the model year wrong on your car? LOL!)
Or are you a closet Nissan fanboi hiding out in an S2000 forum?
Neither are really appealing options, IMO.
And there is no question that you're behaving like a "little dog" aka a "Me-Too"... since your comment comes from out of left field:

PS: The GT2 also does not have any rear seats. I should've said non GT models. Ironically the Porsches with "GT" in their names are the actual sportscars and the ones without are truly touring cars with superior performance.

I don't consider the lack of rear seats to detract from comfort, since they're not big enough to be of much practical use for anyone other than small children.

The "new" NSX was a giant leap in the wrong direction anyway.
I'd rather Honda do a successor that's more Lotus Elise than Corvette. Another overpriced/overwrought/overWEIGHT megasuperubercar would have meant nothing to me.

Top post, you hit the nail on the head. Supposing there is a theoritic choice btw a NSX successor and an S2000 successor, I'd rather they continue to focus on the next S.

You're right, no question. I was agreeing on a more of "this" than "that" basis. It would not be a smart move to make an Elise style car, as Lotus already makes that right and nobody buys them anyway. Still an affordable, fun, and economical some-type-of-car for the masses will be a better idea than another supercar.
