Yeah, I have a feeling you don't want to admit it was empty. If should be easy to say,
1) I checked the oil and it was low.
2) I added 2 quarts and it was still not measurable
3) Added 2 more quarts before I could measure it.
or
1) Had an oil change
2) Checked the oil but, couldn't measure it
3) I added 2 quarts and it was still not measurable
4) Added 2 more quarts before I could measure it.
If the lube place didn't put oil back into the car, they owe you a motor.
You're totally unclear on the actual sequence of events.
There is an oil pressure light. If it comes on, your engine's probably already toast. It's that way with american cars too. There is no oil level light. The Japanese assume people read and follow directions.
The S2000 is the first Honda I've owned that didn't have an integral oil catch can on the PCV system. Both my Civic and Integra had a built in oil catch can. Any car can use too much oil if the PCV isn't serviced properly.
