A new S2000 car is close: http://translate.google.com/translate?js=y&prev=_t&hl=no&ie=UTF-8&layout=1&eotf=1&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.rallye-magazin.de%2Ftop%2Ftopnews%2Fd16%2Fd%2F2010%2F06%2 F24%2Fvw-gol-s2000-debuet-vertagt%2Findex.html&sl=de&tl=en

Well it is not really an S2000.
Argentinean Championship has created a new possibility, a locallly created S2000 like (regionally produced) cars, but with a unique supplied engien and gearbox.

Engine is a Honda 2.4 litre, aiming same performance as S2000 ones but with less cost and extended service intervals.

First car would be that VW Gol, next one a local Punto, and expecting for a 207 (what is know in Europeas 206+) and local Fiesta (not current generation of Fiesta).

I do not like this move, as it will isolate Argentina form international scene, but it is the way the organisers are trying to attract local car manufacturers. (and their money, obviously)
