They would have needed to re-design it and give it a bigger power plant for a similar price in order to keep selling them..

I have no ideayt they cancelled the s2000 power had nothing to do with it it was the handling and the fun you had driving it. even when it came out there were cars with more power than the s2000. the s2k defined a real sports car light,quick, and good with corners. power doesnt matter in a car like that. But I do think that the s2000 is a stepping stone. they made it 2 research a front engined-rear wheel drive car so that it will help them with the next NSX or its replacement.
