The Cars I Missed Buying Rolled Into One

It's just not possible to go 100 feet in my S2000 without breaking into an ear-to-ear grin that lasts for hours after leaving the car. This is truly, by design, a racing car. The S2000 does not really handle like a car--it's somewhere between a go- cart and a motorcyle. The engine is perfectly satisfactory up to 5000 RPM for driving in even stop-and-go traffic. From 5000 to red line at 9000, you go into warp drive. I missed buying a Porsche Speedster and a 356SC, I turned down a great deal on a 289 Cobra, and I passed on a Lotus Super 7. They are all in the S2000 with the reliability of a Honda. I will keep this car for the rest of my life.

I love this car. Not very practical for a daily driver but what a blast to drive! This car drives so much better than a Z3 M6 handling, acceleration, shifting, looks. People always stare when they see this car. Even Porsche owners look and feel a twinge of regret.

Forget Z3/4, Forget SLK's, forget the 350Z, forget TT's, even forget Boxters (not Boxster S though), THIS CAR IS AMAZING. It's like a motorcycle on four wheels. On the fun to drive and reliability scale, it's off the charts. Clearly though it does not have accord reliability, but it's still a VERY stable and dependable Honda.

$9,000 per cylender?

When I got in the cockpit I first got a positive impression of the car, but given time, other things came to my attention. The Car's performance would satisfy me if the price was around $25,000 because let's face it: 240 horses isn't extreme power by anybody's standards. I was dissappointed by the car's lack of power more than anything, although other aspects of performance were better.

First and foremost, I've driven civics all my life, including the latest, an 02 si. Finally, I get my hands on the S2000 and all i can say is WOW! Pure power delivered by a 9200 redline! There's not much more of a race car Honda could've designed. Its all that and THEN SOME! It handles beautifully, accelerates like a car on a mission! This car will give over 90% of the cars on the road a run for their money or even, a good taste of honda exhaust fumes!
