it's not necessarily a bad thing.. Let's just be grateful we've got to enjoy them.

I struggle to find anything under 90 grand appealing in the car world at the moment if i'm honest.

TVRs are probably one of the only cars that i think has enough sex appeal to interest me. Skylines are big combersome creatures that a growing proportion of idiots drive and most other powerful jap cars are owned by people i'd rather not be associated with.

Elise's still look too girly for me personally and evos/imprezas are still performance family cars in my eyes - much like m3s.

It's long time we had something that isn't a z4 that looks good to choose from.

Real shame that Honda appear to be taking a big hit in this present financial climate, moreso than the other Japanese manufacturers.

Also a big shame that Honda have gravitated towards the mainstream way of doing things over the past few years instead of going thier own way as they did in the past; but I suppose when the chips are down you have to please the masses with bread and butter; Fairy lights on the S though, I really wish they hadn't lowered the car to that level for its curtain call

Don't mind the side skirts, and the red soft top cover looks funky.

Not sure about the bumper or the "LED everything" ..

and carbon fibre-clad interior
Modulo have always made a lot of tat for the S2000 interior.

To be avoided IMO.

The new clocks look interesting, they could have at least changed the seats like they did in the Jazz...

Nice wheels!

I like the idea of the nose, if taken a wee bit too far.
