Hey all-

Newbie here.... I just bought an '00 S2000 here in Tallahassee, FL. It has only 43,000 miles on it. I just realized that the top has a slight tear just rear of the driver side window. The rear plastic window is also fogged (can hardly see through it at night). Does anyone know if the Honda Certified Extended Bumper to Bumper warranty includes the top? I visited a convertible shop here in town, and they told me that you cannot just replace the rear window, as it is all one piece (like the Z3). He also quoted me $2000 to replace the top!!!! This seems REALLY high. I owned a Miata a few years ago, and that top was only $695 to replace. If someone could kindly point me in the right direction. If there is any chance it is covered under warranty, and somone has had it replaced, could you please give me a dealer name / repair order form number so I can get on my dealer? Also, my mother is an attorney for Honda, so she could use anyone else's experience to apply some pressure on the local dealer.

thanks

john
