On the other hand, when they went from '00 to '01, they changed to a Type II engine coolant (longlife) and slightly different ECU programming.
Ahhh, I learn something new everyday. I did not know that

And within one of those "series", they put on rims that were a different tingue.
Wait? is that why some pre '04 wheels look more silver to me? at FWT last year I could have sworn I saw two different shades of pre '04 wheels, I didnt say anything cause I thought it was just my eyes, some cars wheels were a lot brighter and the other I noticed had a very slight tint to them kind of like copper or bronze tint?

^ Yep

The part # for <01 wheels is different than the # for >01 because of this.

FWIW, s2000 sales as reported by Honda are down 16.1% YTD through March versus 2004. 2004: 1,831 2005: 1,516

It would be sweet if they hid a bottle of nitrous in the trunk, and let the push start be the nitrous release!!!

Honda is working on a new non-Acura halo sports model, it doesn't have a name yet though... and yes, 2006 will be the last MY. My proof? This is all I got....

My personal salesman mumbled about it... so why he was appraising my GF's ride (and my TL, hehe), I asked two other salesman while shopping around the dealership. They both spoke of the same info...

Do with this what you will... This is not an April fools, I'm done with that shiat.

BTW- They didn't have a Rio or Berlina(my new preference). One Sebreezy, One Silverstone, 6 Suzukees two of which were '04!

Really?!
I've bookmarked your post. When the 2007 model shows up, I'll bring this back so you can go back to those SALESMEN and tell them where to put it.
"Do with this what you will... " -- Sure thing. It's already been filed in a deserving place.

Oh and by the way, here are all the past "last model" posts:

And you wonder why we are just a little bit skeptical?

The only reason I even read these threads is to laugh at the sarcastic comments.
