In case you missed it, an ambitious design student named Michael Mcgee recently unveiled a concept for what imagines a new version of the now discontinued Honda S2000 to look like if it were to be released in the year 2020. To say that it's an ambitious project would be a severe understatement; as would it be to infer that it sparked a little bit of nostalgia for the rear-wheel drive roadster here at Mungenast St. Louis Honda, serving the greater St. Louis area.

That said, feel free to take a look at the Honda S2000 specs listed below, then feel free to imagine how Mcgee's new concept would lend itself to them.
