Should be able to get roadsters cheap now ...
From today's Wall Street Journal (online):
But let's not pick on Porsche, or the very fine Boxster, just because it has suffered a 31% sales decline this year through the end of May. It's got plenty of company: During the first five months of this year, sales of the rival Audi TT Roadster are down 29.5%; BMW Z3 roadster sales are off nearly 41%; and the Mercedes SLK's sales have skidded 19%.

Those are old CGIs....
Here are two actual spy shots...

Notice how the lines along the side form a Z? The blacked out roundel that intersects the form is supposedly a turn signal as well.

The S2000 was a Z3 wannabe before it ever left the plant...
Look at the S2000's front end and imagine two kidneys. Perhaps a bit more angular, but original? Give me a break.
The only half way decent original design out of Honda in years was the NSX. Even the last generation Prelude was a take off of a late '80s Prelude. Hondas may be engineered well, but their (stuck in the '80s) designers are far from original.
Just my opinion.
