that's what I think too. Some cars are just going to have minor facelifts after minor facelifts, or at most a mechanical enhancement (new engine, etc) the looks are there to stay.

I'm referring to cars like the Beetle and the Mini. You can't really do much to the exterior and still make them so classic. I think the same goes with the S2000. Too much exterior changes and it will be screwed up.

the S2000 is like the NSX one of those cars that honda leaves the same for 10 years. I think the inegra was aruond for 7 years. When it comes to redesign of cars honda gets lazy unless its the civic or the accord

having a car in that category might make sense, but i think our (mike's and mine) point is that it won't be "successor" of the s2000, it's basically just another car from honda.

the s2000 was a "special" car honda put up in 2000 (obivously), and it's not even supposed to run for this long like mike said. imagine, the car has been out for 6 yrs but it's still selling so strong, and it's still one of the best little sport cars out there. it has one of the largest, if not largest, hp per displacement ratio engine out there, super solid, and you can still slap on a supercharger easy. handling of the car is so sweet, and for the price i think it's one phenomenal car
