S2000's are everywhere, more so than 350's and RX-8.
Considering it is now a 5-6 year old model and low resale value, what can I expect?

Heh,

A rhetorical question that sees no end.

Seriously, why couldn't they make it $90k?

I just wanted to comment on my sightings yesterday and today - many little kids like myself are driving this fine car.

I've only seen one other one in London in the last 7 months.

Well I was driving around yesterday and in the little town of Ottawa people are breaking their necks, whistling hollering and drooling over the car. I rarely see one on the road.

Which is funny because Saturday 03_AP1 pulled into the same parking lot as me, that was cool.

No one would buy it....it's not worth $90K.

One could say the same for a boxster though, its not really worth 90k, but people buy it.

If Honda had the same scams that Porsche does by customizing the heck out of a vehicle, they might be able to pull it off for a select few. However over all no one is going to drop 90k for a HONDA, they will for an Acura..but not a HONDA.
