Honda releases very limited S2000 RJ in Europe

The S2000 soldiers on as Honda's hottest whip with nary a significant nip/tuck or overhaul since it was introduced over seven years ago. It's inevitable demise is in the cards, but Honda's still proud of its little 2.0-liter terror and there's at least one more special edition planned before it goes. The S2000 RJ celebrates Honda's history in F1 racing, and as such features the signatures of Rubens Barrichello and Jenson Button, Honda Racing's pair of F1 drivers, on the audio head-unit's flip down lid. Apparently Honda thinks the S2000 is already F1 enough, so no changes were made to the car's actual performance hardware. Instead we get Pearly White Premium paint as an exclusive paint color and a red and black interior. An Alex Zanardi NSX this is not. Regardless, Honda will only be producing 50 copies of the S2000 RJ (just like the Alex Zanardi NSX), all of which will be sold in just France, Italy and Spain for quite a premium.
