I believe the Insight, NSX, and S2000 are all built in the same plant.

I just finished the S2000 book by Dan Carney, and the book talks at length about our engine.


The book actually quotes Hiroyuki Yoshino (Honda CEO when book was written, still???) that the F20C engine was pioneering some technology for the "Next Generation Engine" series, starting with an engine in the 2003 Accord. Apparently the F20C is going to be a baseline for entire family of new engines; at least that's my read.

So, hey, does anyone know anything about a new engine for the Accord being imminent?

I would imagine that the new Accord may be the K series, not the older F or C series.

The S also shares mirror switches and window safety switch with the Del Sol.
