:shock: :shock: Times are really tough, but Honda's being smart and conservative. I mean they pull out of F1, so now they're really cutting down.

Well, the S2000 has been around for 10 years now which is pretty good for a model to be around. Kudos for Honda for offering such a great car all these years. Between it and the EF Civic (88-91) represent the two best Hondas produced in the last 20 yrs.
Dood, are you gonna eat that?

It's not a rumor.
Honda confirmed on Monday that the S2000 sports car is done after the 2009 model year.
