I just found this thread in the midst of searching for instructions on removing the center console but I'm going off on a tangent... I had a 2000 Honda S2000. I purchased it with 19,000 miles in August of 2001. I had it until April 2006. It was an incredible feat of engineering. There are two cars in the Honda lineup that are not "mass produced". The NSX and the S2000 are both hand assembled in the same factory. I bought my Porsche to fill the void in my heart after I wrecked the S2000 and couldn't be happier. But you need to give the S2000 it's due. It's a perfectly balanced car to begin with. Stock it has many features that are very pricey upgrades on other vehicles (forged pistons and rods, blueprinted and balanced crank, etc). Additionally, the fact that they were able to get 120hp per liter is an incredible accomplishment. Would I go back to an S2000? Not a chance. Did I love it as much as my Boxster? Yep. They are different beasts. The Boxster is MUCH more refined. It's a Gentleman's sports car. And in closing, there certainly is no substitute.
