Personally, I think they should put the S in the column R.I.P. There's too much competition out there, the S has not made any significant evolution since its introduction, and it is too specialized to attract buyers. Definitely the value of every S available out there would go up, and you would have one of the purest sports car to drive. Honda posted a 27% profit in sales, and it's not from sales of the S. It's still one hella fun car to drive.

believe it or not,
i was getting my window fixed on monday and the three workers were admiring my car, and mentioned that they have never seen one around town before.
for a two year old car i think that is good enough for me

Is it me or is the attention the sportscar industry once placed on the S2K fading quickly. I own a MY02 and just love it. However, I have noticed that car magazines like Motor Trend and Car and Driver are not writing articles like they once did. I rarely see the car rated, advertised or featured anymore. Is it me or is this noticed by others.
Your not reading too many mags then are you. Road and track #5 sports car this year. March 2005. Rated it over the viper under the lotus.

This will be hard for some of you to take, but you need to hear it: You sound like the whiny bitches over on the Miata forum. "Mazda (Honda) doesn't love me." "Why don't they spend more time advertising on the Miata (S2000)?" "They've let the Miata (S2000) become outdated." "Will there be a new one? It better true to the old one." But I thought the old one was outdated. You bought your car. You made an excellent choice. Be happy. I learned this lesson the hard/expensive way.
I think Mazda promoted the hell out of the miata to the point that it is the car everyone thinks of when you say two seater roadster. I've only seen two honda adds with the s2000 in it and those two were not selling the car. I think it's great I don't want it to sell. Fewer = better. Also your still new here take it easy.

I get just as many looks in my 04 as I did in my 01

seems like magazines always concentrate on the new models
