S2000 type S?
is there such a thing? my friend sayd he saw 2 different S2000's w/ an "S" where the [H] emblems were supposed to go (front & rear)... is this some kind of option or did they just stick the "S" from "S2000" on there?

Actually they are S badges. You can get them from one of the sponsors on http://www.s2000online.com. You can use these in lieu of the H badges..No big deal...

There is another S2000, its Japan only though. I thought it was the Type-S but its possibly the Type-V, however there is definatly another edition of the S2000, i'll look into it...

Type V. I think it has a different steering rack or something that makes it easier to turn, but not as much fun or fast.
Not as much fun? I guess that's a personal thing.
Not as fast? It has no impact on the acceleration or speed of the car.

Re: S2000 type S? (stephen c)
Heard that it was not as much fun. From where? This is a subjective statement. Many of us would rather have a smaller lock to lock ratio and look at this as a good thing.
A tick slower -- why in the hell would the lock to lock ratio of the steering wheel have any impact on the cars "speed.".

Re: S2000 type S? (Megatron)
That is correct. In factory testing around Twin Ring Moteggi(sp?) the lap times were 3-4 seconds slower for the Type V. Independent tests were conducted by one of the Japanese magazines as well, but I completely forgot which of my bookmarks is the correct link.
