Type S

Okay, so here I am in the local mall's parking lot the other night when what do I see? An NSX in the distance. I drive over for a closer look, and boy am I glad I did. It had a custom hood, Carbon Fibre, and some big rims (17 or 18 6-spoke). It looked a little lower than most NSX's and had some exhaust work done (big, shiny mufflers:D). However, one thing struck me....A type S badge! Wait, I was under the impression that the type S never made it to the US! Someone, please tell me that I am wrong and this was a legitimate badge, not some rich ricer!

Okay, looked on the net real quickly and found these two differing sights....
1) yes, it may be here. It was slightly old (was talking about for '99), but who knows.

2) This says that it was only for Japan and is newer (feb 23 2000). Anyone shed some light?
