    Haha, most of us have owned Honda's in the past and besides the S2000, most of us wouldnt own another except for a daily driver.

    QUESTION ON THE S2k- Does it bother anyone else that it has a digital speedomter? Personally, I dont think I could buy the car just because of that... like right now, Im lookin at bikes and I love the R6, but I am steered away from it just because of the digital speedo... Cant stand digi speedo's!!!

    you use your speedo? and i dont mean that in a smart ass way , but it is proven when people look at a gauge they are firmiliar with where it sits and if it isnt in that area it draws attention.

    when i am out driving you could take out my speedo and i could easily tell you within 5 mph how fast i am going up until about 100 then it gets a little harder to judge because i dont drive that fast every single day. once i am going over 100 i really dont care how fast im going nore do i direct my attention from the road to the speedo to see just how big my ticket would be, i consentrate on my surroundings instead.

    haveing a preference on gauge type i can understand but not to a degree that i wouldnt concider a car just because it had a digital speedo.

    Its not that I really use my speedo per say, yeah i look at it sometimes to check my speed, but its just a cosmetic thing I guess. I dunno, I told this to my dad and how it pisses me off and he 100% agreed, LOL.

    again i understand preferance, but i just dont worry about how fast i am going.... unless i see blue lights then i glance down and either hit the gas or the brake lol.
