2008 Honda S2000 CR
Have you guys read about this model? I guess it was shown at the New York Auto show.
Some highlights:
"The S2000 CR is the closest thing you can get to a Honda-built racecar with license plate holders and a horn," said John Mendel, executive vice president of American Honda Motor Co., Inc. "Its features and equipment are designed to appeal to weekend club racing enthusiasts."
This trim level will replace the soft top with an aluminum hard top that is removable as standard equipment.
It is supposed to be lighter and more rigid. Although it is maintaining the same 237HP rated 162lb-ft. 2.2L engine, with less when and adjusted suspension tuning, they claim it will substantially improve track times.
Here is the full article for those interested:

Everyone's thoughts?
My opinion, I think all of the S2000's should be "the closest thing you can get to a Honda-built racecar with license plate holders and a horn"
To me that is what the car should stand for. Sine even the 2.0L engine is no longer the highest HP per litre producing powerplant, I guess they have different goals for the car.
I wonder how much more to the sticker price this CR model will add.

I figured as much, but I know there are a lot of people, like myself, that do not go on S2ki, hence the reason I shared here.
I was hoping for at least a factory tuned supercharger or something like that.
