Widely considered the quintessential roadster-style sports car and performance icon for the Honda brand, the S2000 combines uncompromising racetrack-ready performance with everyday usability. For 2006, Honda builds on that foundation with significant updates to further improve performance and refinement.

One of the other posts regarding the 06 talks about a new hardtop and a new style boot cover ... any info on these?

I like the new Z06.

I don't like the new seats on the S, the steering wheel is fugly!

I like the new wheels a lot.

I will have to see about the VSA and DBW. Not really interested in either feature.
