Default S2000 owners... any rattles??

Just wondering... this is alot like the thread down below about reliability... though interior rattles usually is not considered as a big problem, but does it exist on s2000??

Reason i am asking is that... I own a e36 m3... the car drives great but the car's interior rattles which I really hate... been hearing alot of good things about honda quality (never own one yet)... hopefully that the s2000 will be rattle free.

Thanks,

I haven't had any problems. 6000 miles and the car is as tight as new. Of course it's still just about new. 2000

None. Oh, there's a kind of funny creak when you first sit in the cockpit, ooops I mean driver's seat.
Other than that, no rattles at all. And this on one I got used w/ 10K on it, but now has 14K.

My Rick's wind deflector rattles above 50MPH, the CD jewel cases in my glove box rattle when turning the car, my seat makes a weird creaking noise when I take sharp corners (I'm guessing it's the side bolsters), and there's a subtle rattle that emits from the dash area when I hit a sharp bump in the road.

car is very tight. the only potential noise from it comes from the strap that holds the top cover on the passenger side. if you dont use the cover, no noise- or if you adjust the passenger seat, no noise. this is not really a car noise-
really no noise; remember, its a honda!

I have a rattle when there is nobody in the passenger seat. I think it is the spare tire. I need to go and figure it out. It drives me crazy to have a new car and have interior rattles. Other than that... none.

Probably not... though goudy got a bunch.. 2 yellows, black, few silvers... don't know what happened.. maybe demands has gone down significantly?? or their prices are just very very bad...

Wow! your s2000 got alot of mods on it... wonder how come i never see you around alhambra.
