S2000 Price Gouging by Honda Dealers

 
As you all know, the long awaited S2000 roadster is beginning to appear in Honda dealerships all over the USA. The MSRP of this car is supposed to be $32,415, but however in numerous instances, dealerships have placed huge markups on these cars. Honda designed this as a competitive base for the Porsche Boxster and the Z3 and by the actions of these dealers, the whole purpose of the car is defeated. 

Below is a list of dealers and their tagged prices. If you see any ridiculous prices on the S2000, send it to us and we will add it in. Please tell your friends about this. For those  who have a little free time on their hands, please call  Honda of America (1-800-999-1009) and lodge a complaint.
