Once upon a time, the site default was 50 posts to a page, Nick. A while ago, this was changed to 25. The 
s of longer-standing here tend to regard those which come after 25 posts as being "faux corners", and only ones after 50 posts are "proper corners".

Nowt wrong with a 2.0 Z4 IMO. Brings quality motoring to the masses. My people like nice cars but aren't bothered about performance, this works out perfectly for them as does the 150bhp TT. It can be the first step on the ladder to owning a fast sportscar and exactly what BMW want. After they drive the 2.0 they will be ideal customers for upgrading to a 2.5 or 3.0.
What does Honda to to keep brand loyalty? The NSX is out of range for most people so the only choice is to either buy a new S2000 or move away from the brand. At the moment Honda are hardly doing a great deal to the S to make us all stay for second or third helpings.
Having said that, I can imagine that I will buy another, but I hope there are some more changes to the car for 2006.

I think Honda really has to do something radical in the sports car market to remain competitive there - we should have had an S2000 type R well before now and I cannot believe they have canned the HSC.
