Just wondering and if so did they mention what, if any, the changes are going to be.

Nothing significant, as the big one was for '04.

At least according to the Temple of VTEC.

I heard from a reliable inside source that they are dropping the RNBP colour option as Honda is concerned about regaining its "old person" image caused by the average age of the RNBP driver.

I also heard that as this is to be the last year of the S2000, Honda are only releasing the car in Silverstone. They want everyone to remember that the S truly was a fast car and the other colours would tarnish this image

Chaps, can you keep the mindless drivel for OT please? A serious question was asked and, obviously Nick aside, your replies don't really help matters.....

Thank you

Sounds entirely feasible

No changes at all for the 05.

You get an 04 car at 05 prices (just gone up about 80 quid).

I ordered a new Moonrock a month ago and have been told by Chiswick Honda that it will be an 05 model but with no differences. I also spoke to Honda UK who said the same. Neither of them were able to give me a confirmed delivery date but estimated mid-October
