Wow, I'm pretty disappointed. This is nothing more than an Eddie Bauer Edition. I'm willing to bet the wheel's are heavier than the normal S2000's. At least I don't have to get rid of my 01 now.

^^^ I'm quite happy with my 06' Berlina too! I can make the suspension stiffer and get some body goodies too.

I can't even imagine someone paying close to $40k for just this!

wow... talk about function over form... why the heck is that front bumper there... neways, lose a/c, radio, and the folding top, and you save 90lbs... throw on a hard-top and your back to zero?

and i know they can fit wider wheels/tires on there... they should have changed the wheel wells for better fitment...

i guess the suspension is "stiffer"... but i was expecting more...

better than nothing though

Feel free to lynch me but I think it looks like ass. Whereas the ITR was subdued, this is over the top and looks like a rice mobile.

Horrible.

Why blue? Honestly, I was expecting either a white, black, or red s2000 CR.

I think the color is what makes this CR look kinda crappy. NFR would probably make this look great!

Yep, NFR + black/gunmetal wheels on this CR would look very hot IMO!

SOMEONE PHOTOSHOP IT RED!

The wheel-and-tire package is borrowed from the Acura NSX Type R. The interior features special cloth/suede upholstery in black with yellow accents, and the exterior colors are black, yellow, white, or blue (all with a black hard top). The S2000 CR is for the North American market only, and its limited production run of 2000 units means it should account for one in three S2000 sales once the car arrives at dealerships this September.

The color combos arent that bad - IMO, but what happend to all the weight savings from the delete of the AC/radio? 90 pounds of savings isnt a huge improvement to me.

Only 90 lb reduction? Since they are not touching the motor at the same time, I'm not impressed. The driver/passenger humps are almost as ugly as the paint color. At least the wing looks seriously functional.
