I think their decision to can sports cars is based off of a genuine fear that the market will continue to dry up, especially as green tech continues to be emphasized. The XLR was overpriced. I thought the $100k version was the XLR-V, but regardless, the XLR at any trim had SL or SL AMG competition, and the SL is a far better vehicle. So, bye bye. But don't bet me wrong, I am truly sad about the S2000--that was going to be my convertible. Blakkar's "build it and leave it" statement is true. The S2000 was a great car and even better starting point, but they took it no where. And, the fact that it was always a true sports car and didn't bleed into a grand tourer, I'm sure, hurt sales. Anytime you don't even offer an automatic will slow, especially, U.S. sales. And, when the economy was good and you took a look at Boxsters, Z4's and TT's, I think there was a market for an Acura-based S2000. You could up the S2000 base price by as much as $10k and avoid competing with yourself and still being a bargain next to the competition. Maybe all's well since the economy tanked, but I still would have liked seeing Honda exploit the S2000 potential.

That's a special Vette package, Japan never innovated in that fashion.

My friend just bought one and I have to admit it's a joy to drive. A bit cheap on the interior but it's not meant to be an extravagant car. The XLR on the other hand, it was basically like selling a heavier, slower vette. The vette serves its purpose, and quite well, but the XLR was kind of a pariah.

I guarantee if you put that tall gear in an S2K, the car wouldn't be able to use it, let alone cruise at 65mph in that gear. The S2K wouldn't be able to climb a slight incline with that kind of gearing, which is why Honda gave it that particular tranny. But I wouldn't compare the S2K to a 'Vette. They are a very different kind of car. Mügen, that’s the advantage of high displacement: lots of low-end torque allowing for taller gears.

Most probably never drove or sat in a S2k. A milestone when released in 1999 (AP1) but then left to die on the vine, even after the update (AP2). The digital display is kinda cheesey but the heart and soul of that engine / chassis is very go-kartish. While the Miata (or MX-5 whatever it's called) won the hearts of the ladies or the midlife crisis male due to its fun yet practical driving manners, the S2k was the raw sportscar that was packaged as a drop top. The Z was a hardtop (with the 'vert as an afterthought when it was reintroduced) but a porky one at that. Anyway ... I'm saddened to see it go. The S2k was a car I thought would be a great weekend car but with my priorities the way they are, I suppose I won't be buying one new before its final production run... (sigh). Same went for the NSX (first gen) ... looking at the 'near mint' ones for sale on NSXprime ... they haven't lost their value since it's like a cult car. I'm sure the S2k will hold up fairly well (but more easy to find at an affordable level due to its initial price point). XLR? Nice try for Cadillac but a poor use of its (limited) resources. Tried to play with the Merc SL and got burned badly. A lot of Honda-haters at the start of the thread. Most probably never drove or sat in a S2k.

Since when are sports cars suppose to be about practicality? They're about fun! I can understand the XLR cancelation as it was just a Vette in a Caddy suit. But the S2000 was made for pure fun and driving. It's sad to see it go, it the economy wasn't in the crapper we would have probably seen a highly updated version in the near future. I love the concepts for the S3000. Now that was a great design. @ Jon Luc: Practical? Since when are sports cars suppose to be about practicality? They’re about fun!

S2000 Dead and no replacement. Gen2 NSX Dead at 99% ready for production. HONDA is one of the shakiest sports car makers in the biz. TOYOTA is not going to ditch the LF-A and NISSAN is going to expand on the GT-R35, HYUNDAI is readying their Genesis coupe, GM is holding firm on their performance cars, and much more. They are not giving in, why is HONDA, why not release the NSX as an ACURA. Why not delay the car instead of killing it off? I feel burned by HONDA on this, I was looking forward to this three-way. Don, The S2000 had crappy gas mileage. The C6 Z06 gets better numbers at 85mph than the S2000 did at 65moh. The Rx-8 probably does slightly better than the S2000. It's really because the engine has to work so hard to produce usable power, being a modestly detuned racing engine it was never really made for efficiency just running fast and free at the track. Nothing wrong with that, but the CORVETTE was just made as a better all-rounder and a better sports car overall than the S2000. The XLR? CADILLAC didn’t need that one anyway.

Honda on the other hand is the reason the s2000 is ‘slow selling’ considering it is a car that has not seen a real make over in its near nine year existence and it was slow as crap compared to other cars in its market. I mean seriously, s2000 with 240hp and 140lbs of torque, or an 350Z spyder w/300bhp… not really what I would call a tough decision. Honda short themselves in the foot.

Come on, who really thought this thing was going to survive. Caddy doesn't even advertise the thing. The S2000 I'm surprised over. Especially the fact that they only sold 72 in December.
