I saw a 2004 Honda S2000 on the road today. Didn't know there was even such an animal. Went to the Honda site, http://www.hondacars.com and checked the specs. There is a page for competeitive comparison. One of the features listed as standard on the S2000 is "manual air conditioning." Shown as "not available" on the Crossfire. Anyone know what manual air conditioning means? Other than rolling down the windows???

 

This is only a guess, mind you. But, manual A/C may be YOU, the driver set the temp in a blue or red range & control comfort by turning system on or off (traditional method) V. setting the temp at a specifice degree and allowing the system to manage the temp automatically.

 

I think it's putting the top down. :lol:

 

Manual air-con will blow out the temperature you set continuously until you change it, whether its set to 16 or 26 degrees.
Auto air-con will reach the temperature you set then constantly monitor it adjusting the heat/cold accordingly.

 

Intresting this comparisation!

I see only good points for the Crossfire but info given is not always correct and NOT complete. Like you say what is a manual airconditioning! Notlisted (?) they want it to be I think. Still... looking at this comparisation can make you conclude the Xfire is the better choice, this was in my case. I prefer torque above HP, it is almost the same size on the outside but inside the Crossfire has more room and so on....

Oh just found the answer! A Manual Air Conditioning is an arco that is so complicated that YOU NEED A MANUAL and yes H*nda has it :wink:

Honda's S2000 is in fact a great little sports car. It is very good looking and fast. I considered buying one until I saw the new Crossfire. I test drove them both along with the other competitors from BMW, Nisson, Masda, and the like. The Crossfire won hands down!.......What a car!....I love it! If you do not have one yet, sell your first born and throw in you right arm. It is well worth it!
