I was talking about this yesterday with my friend Brandon. They took a great car from 2000-2003 and started to make it a luxury car with almost every year passing. It was bound to happen. I love my AP1 and would never want to own an AP2. It was the simple things that made the AP2 even more wrong for me as time started to catch up to it. Prices started to go up as well. I really hate the AP2 rear bumper, just an example. It's true though, it's time for Honda to come out with something new.

Yup, but they're comparing across years. You'd think they'd drop proportionally unless it was a very warm or cold month in particular.

I think sales wouldn't be that great for any convertible without a top.

What do CR people do if it starts to rain?

Maybe CR should have been fixed roof?

CR's come with a hardtop too.


I think there were way more than six NSX's sold in the last year of production. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think Honda sold ~200 2005 models of NSX's.

I know it comes with a hardtop. I had a hardtop with my last s2000.

Where do you store that hardtop? In the trunk?

How about that boot cover? Does that go in the trunk too?

My point is you have to decide whether or not your convertible is a convertible before you leave the house.

They should have left the soft top on it and made it lexan windowed and manual to cut down on weight.

Sorry that sarcasm doesn't translate too well to the internet.
