Whatttttttttt?!
I thought they were stopping production of the S2000?!

phelan · 05-28-2009, 04:46 PM

saw that this morning on autoblog, and loved one guy's comments about the "new" s2000 looking like the product of a GT-R, SLR, and EVO IX all mating. That front is hideous...

and does it look like it's sagging to anybody else??

XBadgerX · 05-28-2009, 04:49 PM

Way too much going on in the front. Miss my S2K, was like driving an oversized go kart.

It does look like the front end is drooping. It's all a bit over the top, but last I heard Honda is scapping the s2000. They want to model themselves after Toyota with a bunch of fuel efficient, unsafe, and over priced hybrids, that nobody wants to drive, but the government may make us drive.

I think front looks Lancer and headlights are carbon copy of GTR. Although, I love S2000s. 2009 is the last year for S2000.

XBadgerX · 05-28-2009, 04:58 PM

Why would they stray away from the traditional roadster even with it being a concept?

CBRich · 05-28-2009, 05:01 PM

Looks like it would slot in better with the new Acura lineup. And by slot in I mean this thing's nearly as ugly as the TL.

CrownR426 · 05-28-2009, 05:08 PM

Looks pretty nice! I hope people around here get it!

side view looks like a lancer coupe. but overall, not really feeling the design of car.

CantZme · 05-28-2009, 05:37 PM

Simply that design sux..

Anatoray · 05-28-2009, 05:38 PM

It's like the Lancer and RX8 had a bastard child and spliced in some DNA from the Soltice. Someone should tell the designer that the very IDEA of "shark" become uncool in every way the SECOND Fonz jumped the shark.

too bad it will most likely stay as a concept

370Ztune · 05-28-2009, 06:12 PM

I will choose this S2000 over the new concept any day.
