Right when Honda starting producing the S2000 they said they
were designing plans for a 4 door. So it wouldn't be a big suprise.

An S2000 sedan? Now that is something I cannot picture. Sometimes I wonder how much crack the Honda president smokes in a day.

If the '03 CL was RWD and a stick, I would be quite upset. Good thing it's not true!

Oh, and a 4door S2000 defeats the entire concept of the S2000.

I agree with you that RWD gonna be in the 03 CL ... Acura would REALLY shock us with that. AWD also unlikely ...

Perhaps this is what was meant by the 4-door S2000 (based on S2000):
