The 2008 model year marked the first time the S2000 was offered in more than one trim level in the United States.[9] In addition to the base model, Honda offered a more track-oriented version of the S2000, distinguished by reduced weight, fewer amenities, and an increase in performance. The S2000 Club Racer made its world debut at the New York International Auto Show on 4 April 2007.[10] Changes for the CR included a lower ratio steering rack, stiffer suspension and all-new Bridgestone Potenza RE070 tires, widened at the rear from 245/40R-17 to 255/40R-17. A revised body kit, composed of a redesigned front lip, rear bumper, and a large spoiler, were wind-tunnel tested and claimed to reduce the overall coefficient of lift by 70–80%. The power folding soft top was removed and replaced with additional chassis bracing topped off with a tonneau cover, while the hard top, optional on other models, became a standard feature on the CR. CR models were only available with yellow and black cloth interior. Finally, in an effort to reduce weight and lower the center of gravity, the spare tire was omitted and air conditioning and stereo were offered only as an options. Net weight savings without the additional hardtop came to 41 kg (90 lb) relative to the standard model. The engine in the S2000 CR was unchanged from the standard trim.[11][12] Shigeru Uehara, the designer of the S2000, stated that the CR was positioned between the Type S and a hypothetical Type R.[13]Production volume of 699 units were made.

I think this should be included in Gran Turismo despite the vast amount of S2000's already available due to the low production numbers only 699 models made. It is the ultimate version of the S2000 by Honda Also the game version should come without A/C Radio since we do not need that in GT. This car was only available in the U.S. and would give others around the world a chance to experience the car and its amazing capabilities. The S2000 CR also has been dominant in the U.S. SCCA SOLO national championship in its class for several years http://scca.cdn.racersites.com/prod/assets/results/2013 Tire Rack Solo Nationals.pdf and the weapon of choice for BStock competitors.
 
+1 The Honda S2000 is one of the best drivers cars ever made. Kazanori-San has one himself, an S2000 race car although not a CR. The inclusion of the CR model would round off the S2000 line up we have already in the game.
