Wow, I was glad I bought an 02' because of the rear glass and tweeters. Now I am REALLY glad!

Okay, I'm not going to take this lying down. In defense of all 00-01 drivers who love their cars, here are some advantages of those years:

- 2000 is definitive model year (if you care)
- If you want a red interior, the 00-01 Blk/Red is much nicer IMO
- Handling setup is not compromised like later MY's
- VTEC pop is more noticeable
- No ugly chrome rings on tail lights
- No "whale tail"
- Console can be covered with real leather
- Console trim paint can be removed revealing cool chrome color
- No "girlie" interior trim rings
- Manly shift knob (for those that can stand the heat!)
- Most of all, you get that real British roadster feel trying to discern shapes (is that a semi or a house?) through the plastic rear window.
