It's not too bad... Have to see more angles to make final judgements. It could be worse though it could be a Miata!

Ok...allow me to add another log to the fire on the S2000...

If they do in fact middle-age this car (i.e. tone it down, clip it's nuts and make it slower / more appealing to the mid-life crisis crowd) that will suck.

What a loss...

I like the yellow S2K below. It is very nice!


It reminds me of the Porsche Boxter and Jaguar XK.

Anybody else notice the striking similarity between the "2008 S2000" that was posted in R & T, and the Accord-concept that's being shopped around? There's something to be said for keeping brand identity, but if the current S2000 looked anything like the current Accord, I don't think they'd sell nearly as many...if any.

that scan is several months old.

Way before the annoucement about the s2000cr.

I'm sure the cr will retain the looks that the current s2k has. Think of it as a last effort to sell just a few more s2k's before it is remodeled
