Someone Bought A Brand New Honda S2000 In Australia Last Month
Don’t worry, you haven’t misread that title, nor have you stumbled upon an eight-year-old news story. Yes, believe it or not a Honda dealer in Australia really did sell a brand new Honda S2000 last month.
The ladies and gents at Car Advice stumbled upon some VFACTS information (VFACTS being Australia’s car industry statistics) that suggested a brand new S2000 had been sold in November. The publication promptly contacted Honda Australia, and were told it wasn’t a mistake.
It turned out an unnamed dealer in New South Wales had kept a 2008 example to one side as a showroom vehicle, and for whatever reason never sold the thing. Until November that is, when a punter managed to snag it for an unknown price.
It’s still unclear whether or not Honda will make a successor to the S2000 (rumours come and go), so it could be a while before this Honda dealer sells anything like this again…

This car is 8 years old and yet it doesn’t feel or look outdated
If they were to relaunch this car like it is it would still be competitive…
So basically they locked it in a time capsule and sold it 8 years later.
Still better than that Prowler
Probably posted by internet explorer
Might as well put the 2008 version back into production….
honda get out from your cave and look at the sun…
Impressive
Still a hugely impressive car even for today’s standards.
So, engine seized, rubbers dried out, hoses shedding skin, all the plastics fatigued, seats hardened..?
