Another one bites the dust!

Thanks to the global economic meltdown /recession/ disaster depending on which news service you watch or listen to, Honda have announced that the Honda S2000 is no more!
Although it was never the best looking sports car, it made up for it in the driving department.
The close ratio six speed gearbox was a delight to use and as a result it made the frequent trips to the ridiculously high redline a joy! You could drive it without venturing to the redline and it drove just like a Honda Civic. Give me the redline every time!
Autoloud experienced the S2000 several times and the best part about the car was, that it was essentially British in character, bringing to mind all those old MG's, Triumph and Healey's that we all loved, except of course the famous Honda reliability came standard. This meant that you could drive the car in any weather conditions without fear of it ceasing to proceed!
Cars like this get dumped by their manufacturers and then autos that are less than desirable are allowed to live on, it is not fair! Enthusiasts of the world beware, this will not be the last!
Autoloud will miss the S2000!
