A real sports car!

I went to market to buy a real sports car. I test drove Porche, Audi, BMW, Lotus, Fiat and Mercedes. I was set to buy a Boxter when our Motoring writer for the newspaper I manage said to me "have you tested a S2000"? I tried one and was hooked. I guess everyone has a different take on what makes a great roadster but the S2000 ticked all the boxes compared to the others. Amazing engine and transmission was a great start nothing else compared to the driving experiance here. The handling is good but will catch inexperianced drivers out who push it to the limits compared to the Porsche which was idiot proof in this area. Overall though the combination of drive, reliability and sheer fun wins!

Not for everyone, but it is for me!

I have wanted an S2000 for several years and finally purchased one last spring. Owning the car is a little different than I had imagined, but not in a bad way. PROS: the car is absolutely thrilling, extremely direct/controllable with a perfect transmission and exciting 9000RPM engine. Great MPG (25-28), outstanding handling, very fun and agile. Makes every shopping trip feel like an adventure. It is a very special, hand built car and feels like it through and through. CONS: Terrible highway car - loud, obnoxious and buzzy. Very tight on the inside, feels great on a curvy road but not on the freeway. Burns 1qt oil/1.5k mi, but I drive it hard.

This car is an absolute pleasure to drive everyday. The handling is razor- sharp and predictable. The engine is great, not a lot of torque but the gearing is great so its not as noticeable. I personally think it is a very comfortable ride. I've driven tuned s13's and supra's and this car is every bit as fun. If you're looking for balance this is the car to own. Almost perfect from the factory, and the car is absolutely beautiful.

Still strong after 6 years!

I have liked the S2000 since I first saw it, prior to the first sell. It has pleasing, timeless lines and handles quite well. In fact, when I drive other cars for short periods, then get back to the S2000 - that is when I really appreciate how it handles. True, the car is not for everyone, but that is what I tried to avoid in the first place (a vanilla car). I look forward to having this car for another 10+ years - may be get a nice paint job when it starts to show its age!

I bought this car in October last year after test driving a couple and falling in love. Bottom line this is a very stiff car that is noisy and not a lot of fun to take on trips much over an hour. It performs well for a stock car, but isn't overly fast in a straight line. It does have a good suspension, but the stock tires are expensive and downright scary in the rain. This has been relegated to a garage queen that I only take out when the top can go down. If you can afford a fun weekend car, it's great. For daily life, I found it unbearable.

Had car now driven in every road condition the tcs is awesome you can spin the car in a tight circle or slide into a parking spot. You really have to learn to drive the short box tranny I rarely use 6th gear. I keep it at 4500 rpm at all times you will forget about the sorry low end power. Vtec is to be used with gas pedal completely engaged and completely engage it again when you hit 9250 to shift it has enough power then. No need for mods Honda did good on this one. I owned a 2003 mustang cobra and I like the s2000 a whole lot more.

Hot wheel stickers are on the rockers in front of the back wheel because it's Yellow and Hot. I've driven this roadster for 4yrs and yes in the snow too! If the snow isn't too deep it goes like a 4x4. This yeller car is the most fun I've had driving. Having driven everything else that goes fast this car is an everyday rush! 55000 miles and no problems. The most "attracting" car to the public that I have ever owned. The engine is bullet proof and 70 mph is all I have ever taken it to. It corners like a yellow Twinkie on rails. I personally think it's powerful enough and boogies when I wind her up. I told myself to never fall in love with my cars but this love is a marriage made in heaven!

This is my 2nd S2000 and it's just as reliable as my first. (It was a 2002) I drive it hard every day and it's still as tight as ever. The super quick steering (13.8:1) and driving position along with the best transmission feel in any manual production car make this quite the impressive ride. Under 6000 RPM it's perfectly fine around town and to get the acceleration you just need to use the delicious transmission. Every thing is tightly screwed together, the top never leaks, the car feels very stiff, especially for a convertible. Brake pedal feel is firm and the stopping distances are excellent. This car doesn't need VSA: it's called your right foot and steering wheel!

I just love my Honda S2000! I thought the thrill of driving was one of those things that you lose over time. Turns out it's just making sure you have the right car. The S2000 is a sporty 6 speed manual that turns head and garners lots of compliments. The hardtop is easily removed and replaced. I'm very impressed by the control panel as everything is well laid out in fingertip reach. No more taking your eyes off the road to change stations. Overall a great car especially if you can find one slightly used and get a good price.

This car is an adrenaline rush every time I drive it. It negotiates tight curves at high speed like it is on railroad tracks. I especially like the feel of the wheel and drivers seat. It is as though I am sitting in the cockpit of an Indy formula car. It will rachet up to 100 mph so fast it will take your breath away and handle the same as though you are doing 35 mph. I would buy this car again in a heart beat. It measures up to other roadsters costing far more money.

The S2000 is an amazingly fun car to drive, not to many cars can compare to the amount of fun that the s2000 can provide. the seats that hug you in all the right places, a suspension that will get you around corners like you never thought possible and an engine that spins to 9000 rpms an its a convertible. its not the most comfortable or quiet ride, at 75mph at 4k rpms with top up, it seems like your going faster than you really are. down low in the rpm range it seems like a civic which can be annoying, but get into vtec around 6k rpms an it feels like your driving an F1 car. the steering feels light an quick an it feels like a go-kart, quick, agile, an light. an amazing car!

This car is just about perfect, but know that it is a small, purpose-built sports car and does one thing very well - put a smile on your face. Better ride than a Miata but can still be choppy because of the short wheelbase, can out-accelerate 99% of anything on the road, bulletproof reliability, corners incredibly, chassis rigidity normally associated with steel I-beams, beautiful engine sounds that get even better the closer it revs to 9K rpm, even the top seals well. I even drive this thing in the snow with Blizzaks and it is useful. Like most Hondas, for the price this car is a no-brainer. Like a pair of favorite jeans, as the miles roll by this car just fits me better and better.

This car rocks!

Get in the car and sit in the comfy seats bolstered just enough to hold you while you pull .94 G's but still comfy enough for long trips and press the start button. Bring the top down and go. Just starting it up is fun, you floor it down the street and before you know it you're at 60 mph. The lack of low end torque makes you think an then you hit 6000 rpms and you feel like youre in a F1 car, you're ready to shift when you realize you still have another 3000 rpms till the 9000 rpm redline comes up. I own an 04 M3 an a Lotus Elise and this is by far one of hte most fun cars Ive ever driven, for 31K it doesn't get much better than this.

After a 3 month search for a new sports car, I went through Z3's and z4's, miatas, corvettes and the like. NOTHING compared to the S2000. Combining legendary Honda build quality, a high revving solid as a rock motor, a lightweight and rearwheel chassis, this car is just a blast to drive. It has ample room for long trips, a driver oriented cockpit that is easy to navigate, and never leaves you longing for something more. If you're looking for a fun car that is reasonably practical this one will not steer you wrong.

This was more race car than I wanted. More like a slot car than anything else. Great fun to drive. I am 5'9 so car was comfortable. It was not a car to take on road trips or heavy traffic though. Lots of road noise, even for a convertible. I think the car was more quiet with top down. There is a reason they put a volume control on the steering wheel, you are always turning up the stereo to hear it over the road noise.

After purchasing my 2003 S2000, everything else seems soft, slow, and lazy. Any sports car must have three things: beauty; the S2000 owns some of the most agressive angles ever on Honda, performance; at 9000 rpms, nothing comes close the excitement or impressive poise of that engine, and excitement; the S2000 translates each factor of the driving experience flawlessly through the wheel, pedals, and seat. Trully a driver's car, this no nonsense pocket-rocket can really create driving memories that'll last a lifetime.

Yeah it goes and I mean, it goes. The ride is a little choppy and the interior is a little cramped (it forces me to keep the clutter down because there's nowhere to put it). But man, you won't find a more fun car to drive in this price range! I saw it in the Honda show room and fell in love! And it's 6 speeds! If you want to turn heads everywhere you go and have people beside you at gas stations ask you about your car, then buy it. I even had some people driving a Civic and sitting beside me at a red light ask me what kind of Honda it was because they had never seen one before. And they were mighty impressed.

Have had my S2000 for a year and use it as a daily driver in Newport, RI so it sees rain and snow. It is everything that you want in a drop-top sports car. Unique styling, great engine, gearbox and suspension. I've had an NSX, a Corvette roadster, and a 911. This car ranks right up there with all of them plus it's less expensive to purchase and requires no maintenance other than to change the fluids. Forget the torque and a killer sound system--a 9000 RPM redline makes up for those things. Buy one and get used to grinning again!

Relatively large trunk, bigger than 350Z, easily holds weekend luggage for two and a case of wine from Napa, just take the wine out of the case. A real blast on twisty canyon roads.

After wanting this car for two years, I finally got behind the wheel of one. The throttle is more responsive than any other car on the road and the steering is point-and-shoot! An absolute blast to drive with an amazing 6-speed. Forget the fluff, this car has the bare minimum and manages to have a greater "wow" factor behind the wheel than any other. The 9000 RPM redline is unbelievable! You must experience it to understand it. Stick to the 2003 and older--the redline is higher and the suspension tighter--it stays true to the purpose of such a pure sports car.

You know the saying "if it seems too good to be true, it is"? Well my s2000 is the first and only car I've ever had that doesn't get old. The more you drive these things, the more you get into them. It fits like a glove, it's NOT soft, and it feels like it reads your mind. You don't just choose your line through a corner, you decide which pebbles you want to tie together to make the line you want. This is just flat out fun and there's not enough room here to describe it.

I have 11400 miles on this vehicle and the clutch is sliping to the point the car is not drivable. Honda is saying it is normal wear and tear to have this problem. They are charging me $1,025.00 to put in a new clutch as they will not cover it under warranty as a defect. In 35 years of driving, I have never had a clutch go out in 11000 miles. As far as i am concerned Honda is not living up to its hyped up reputation. I am selling the vehicle and buying one that I can drive and have a company stand behind it's product. Randy pope

The screaming 9000 RPM engine is a heavenly sound that awakens me every morning to prepare me for another day! I've heard criticisms that the engine evenually wears on one because of noise and high RPM requirements. Quite to the contrary, after 5500 miles, the four cyclinder's thrilling sound still awakens the teenager within me. Suspension and ride? Absolutely incredible! No shakes and not as harsh as the M Roadster. Tight and firm! Build quallity? Second to none! No irritating returns to the dealership. Looks? Well, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but I'll take it over BMWs Z4 any day of the week.

This car is stunning! It is so much fun to drive. It handles speed and turns so well. You can put it up next to the more expensive roadsters and I bet you will think the quality is far superior. I raced a BMW roadster and left them still waiting on me. This is a GREAT CAR!

I've had it for 4 months now and everytime I step into the drivers seat and turn the key I love it even more. I raced it all summer(including 8g neutral drops)and the only car that beat me was a e55 amg. I paid for those neutral drops in late sept when my clutch blew and i paid out 1800 for a whole new tranny =). I've read the reviews and people complain about heated seats, power seats, blah blah. This is a true sports car, period. If you want all that stuff the s2000 is not what you are looking for. I really feel the only sports car that can give you the same feeling as you feel in the S is a ferrari

The S2000 has been a very good purchase. It is, as one should know, not a practical car--ie, you do not plan a month long trip with several suitcases etc to go along, but it is a fun, racy, get-up-and-go car that just makes life a little more enjoyable.

This car has returned the fun factor to driving again. Country Roads that I have avoided driving in the past due to cruves,tightness, on/off accelaration are the ones I look foward to driving with this car.Stay off the main highways and hit the backroads and its a blast to drive.To sum it up take this car for a test drive if you have $33,000.00 dollars to spare because you will want to take it home with you when you return.

The 2002 S2000 was a great car but the 2003 seems to be just a little nicer. The seat is far more comforatable with lots of leg and hip room, stereo sounds little nicer, interior lighting is better design, and other little things like that. Still handles like a dream, shifts smoothly, excellerates quickly, it is fairly quiet inside considering it is a convertible. I am tall and with the top down can still wear a golf visor without the wind whipping it off my head, which my 2002 used to do. Had my silver 2002 for a year, but when I went to get the oil changed they had a yellow 2003 on the showroom floor. Love at first sight!

I love my 2003 S2000. I have to say that this was the best purchase I have ever made. I have a silver/red interior that looks just as hot as it rides. People constantly wave and stop me at red lights to share their opinions that this vehicle is spectacular. I agree with them. I utilize this car as my "Sunday Afternoon" vehicle rather than my primary mode of transport. In FL where the rains can be torential, the S2000 rides a bit low for flash flooding roadways. Also, I have found with the spoilers added on, the ride is so low to the ground that any road debris is a danger...2 times in the body shop to date. I love my S2000. You will love yours too.

Buy this car!

This is a kick ass automobile. Not only does it look good it performs to the max. Forget about the boxster, this car is the choice. People look at it and don't know what it is, but they want it. And the BMW? try fitting your clubs in the trunk - you'll need a tow package to carry them. Not with the S2000, mine fit perfectly! What else could you ask for. Handles the curves like a slot car.

i do not own but drove friends, this is definatly my dream car to buy in the near future. It is amazing from every aspect. With its most powerful engine per litre in retail production (120h.p/litre) it can definatly perform and keep up with alot of stuff out there, by the way the Dodge viper only gets about 50 h.p per litre for comparsion! The handling on this car is impecable, wow it can ride on the road liek its a train on rails, so responsive also. Ya, I can go on and on about my day of fun in this car. - worth every penny of the 30-some thousand dollars it costs.

There can't be a better place in the world to test yourself than the twisting, turning roads of Tennessee. I meet a lot of other roadster drivers here and the talk is always how the S 2000 drives. I can't compare it much because my only other sports car was an antique Porche. This one screams, hugs the corners and goes where you point it. There's no frills in this car to take up your slack except antilock brakes which I appreciate. It's trully a sports car and will test any drivers skill but also instills confidence and makes you want to do it all again. It makes your dopamine levels surge when you do it right!

After more than 3 months, I still get a big smile when I see my red Honda. It is incredibly fun to drive, and it amazes me that I have avoided a ticket! I love it more and more... Fundamentally it is a driver's car. Comfort is for driving, nothing more. It's not a lot of fun with the top up since you are so low to the ground and it is very tough to see to the right rear of the car. But with the top down, you are transformed. You feel like driving a souped up go cart. It turns so tight, accelerates so well. I turned 51 this year, so this is my mid-life crisis car, and I don't have a second of regret. Enjoy....

The preformance of this car is amazing. It handles like the cars in the $60,000 range. The handling on the curves are its better features, it tuck into the curve, like there is a groove in the road made for it. The more you challenge the engine the more it likes it. The high red line makes for a different drive then any other vehicle I have owned before. It has two personalities, one is a well built nice driving little two seat with a sweet look, then your get it into the 6.5 RPMs and it is a monster. It can scream through curves. red lines at 9000 RPMs. it is a car you have to "REALLY Drive" to understand and appreciate!

Get in, buckle up ,drop the hammer and enjoy the ride, this car is as fast as it looks. Let the wife drive it around like Grandmas Civic then get in and drive it the way it should be, driven hard.. Has plenty of power up top to compete with most V8's on the road. Very rigid frame leads to awsome handling , and incredible breaking with a second to none gearbox that makes it a blast to drive. Try one , you'll get hooked.. Many other Roadsters dont compare as the Honda was rated #1 in Road and Track!!!

My S2000 is simply an eye stopper in looks and performance. I frequently drive Hwy 1, from Monterey, CA to Big Sur with lots of curves that are high above the ocean and dangerous cliffs. The 50/50 weight distribution and handling qualities are exceptional. A man walked up to me stating, "Man...that car looks fast just sitting there. What is it?" I just smiled and said, "Its a Honda" It's tough on tires depending on how you drive. I only got 15,500 miles out of my first stock Bridgestones... I'm now trying Michelins Pilots. Watch out! Let the tires get nearly smooth on the back and you will water plane, out of control, in the rain. Drive safe.

I've now had my s2k for just over one year (11k miles). What a year! This car is an absolute blast. Under 6,000 rpm, the car is a relaxed pleasant ride. Rev it into Vtec range and it screams! And unlike so many other high-performance roadsters, the S2k is reliable. To really appreciate this car, you must try autocrossing it! The S2k truly comes alive on the track.

Love my S2000

I thought this car would be like my Miata, but with more horsepower, but almost everything is better except maybe trunk space and the Miata's classic analog dash - But, the S2000 has better SO-2 tires, silky smooth 6 spd trans, ultra quick elect pwr steering, ABS brakes, seats with better support & nicer leather, power top, better fabric, quicker more precise handling, HID, smoother engine low end and WOW! incredible top end to 8900 RPM - Did I mention the engine!

Ever since I saw this in 2000 I knew I wanted it. THen In 2002 when I purcased it I didn't know what was in store for me! I had only seen the outside of this car but this a lot more to it. I think the dashboard is coolest thing. And when your shyifting through the gears and get up to max hp it is so cool!! And can you believe it only has a 2 liter engine. All in all The Honda S 2000 is the best car. Vroom vroom

The 6-speed is a bit tricky at first, but once you get it down the acceleration is amazing. Easily under 6 seconds to 60. Everything is so tight on the car, screwed down to not rattle. I was actually in the market for a C5 when I drove an S for comparison. The C5 was a hulking rattling monster compared to the S, with little noticeable difference in acceleration and much better cornering.

I love it!!

Honda reliable, good looking, excellent value, and lots of horsepower at high revs. I think this is the best sports car for the money. I think its probably the best sports car regardless of price up to $60k.

Overall the s2000 is the most fun convertible under $100,000 to own. This car has everything that the the others have, but for under $35,000, which is why I am the proud owner of one. The s2000 has great performance, a tastefully styled interior which fits the car, and a bold exterior and distinct exterior which makes people on the street say, " what kind of car is that!!!"

The Honda S2000 had me from the first time i drove it. Its a true sport car feel with a 9k rpm revving motor that screams when you get on it, but is quite and perfect for regular traffic driving when not in Vtec. I can not put down anything about the car except for a poor factory stereo system that is hard to hear with the top down. That was an easy fix for me with an aftermarket deck and some tweeters on the pillars. I love it and reccomend it to anyone.

Pure sports car. Boxsters, Z4's, Miatas and TT's are mere pretenders to the title compared to the Honda S2000 exquisite driving experience. Before you spend stratospheric amounts for a convertible,(yes, even all the way up to Ferrarris) you really need to drive this machine first. If you own a Ferrarri, you also need to have one of these in your collection.

Switched from an 2001 BMW M5 to a 2003 Honda S2000 and it has been a blast to drive since day one. It has perfect balance of power and handling. Only "flaw" is the stereo/cd but... who needs stereo when you are driving with top down? I rather listen to sweet sound of VTEC.

Absolutely the funnest car ever built. Takes me back to the days of my MGBs, only with the comforts, conveniences and reliability of a Honda. Quite a few people don't even know what it is! But they are all impressed with its looks and styling. Don't use for everyday commuting and grocery store runs...this is strictly a fun, take-to- the-mountains, "getaway" car. It's everything the reviews say it is. The engine SCREAMS!! It is so fun it's almost scary. You want to go faster and faster thru the corners, and it just STICKS to the road. Keeps the adrenaline going for sure. Best car purchase I've ever made.

As being a convertible doesn't attract enough attention, the S2000 is quite the head-turner. Because of Honda's limited production of the model, there are few on the road and people are always doing double-takes. It's an all- around great car - fast, fun, beautiful, reliable. Being such a hot- looking, two-seater makes it almost an impractical luxury but, hey, it's Honda - so "impractical" is just not possible!

Since purchasing my 2000 Honda S2000 more than two months ago, I find myself often driving the long way home from work. Everything about the S2000 just feels right. From the exotic exterior to the fit like your favorite jeans interior, the Honda S2000 is an amazing car. I traded my 2002 RSX Type-S in for a Honda Certified 2000 S2000 with 12 thousand miles over two months ago. Being that the car is my daily driver, I was concerned that the while the car would be fun to drive, it would deliever a rough overall ride. So far the car only feels slightly stiffer than my last two Honda's (GS-R and a RSX-S)and is very easy to drive around town in.

You will feel the bumps on the freeway all the way to the ear drum. If you want something that feels nice/comfy, get a G35. If you want something thats hardened for mountain roads get an S2k.

Looked at Boxster (original first choice), Z4, Corvette and 350Z. None compared in style and performance to the S2000, in my opinion. But this car's not for everybody. It's a driver's car with spartan amenities... no fufu navigation stuff, no fake wood trim. But everything you need. Acceleration might be a little weak, but it just KEEPS accelerating! Corners as well as or better than anything under $80K.

The car performs like a sports car should. While it is very docile around town you can rev the engine and go when ever you are ready. The suspension keeps body roll to zero and the tires firmly on the ground around corners. The 6 speed transmission is smooth and shifting down or up is like cutting butter.

This is, by far, the funnest of the 12 cars I've owned. The "Big & Tall" crowd should avoid this car and Honda has made sure that anyone that prefers an automatic can't get one. The S is a pure drivers car. Roadster enthusiasts, this is THE car. Forget spending $10K more on a Boxster and still not measuring up. The closest competition is the 350Z roadster. The S will out handle it all day long. My car sees at least one autocross per month and handles exceptionally. There are no electronice aids (except ABS), so it is very involving. The biggest plus is that you can drive all week and only see 1 or 2 others on the road.

If you want a torque monster, this ain't it. If you are looking for rear end warmers, this ain't it either. If you are looking for pure unadulterated driving fun for less than 60k. There aren't too many other choices. The only other convertible I would consider to be similar would be Porche Boxter S. I like this one slightly more, so the 15k savings just gives me that extra incentive to keep the money in my pocket.

Before purchase, considered corvette and BMW. S2000 was better buy. Excellent responsiveness, great looks and quality. Great fun to drive. Amazing power for a 4 cyl. Minimal road noise. Great feature is the glass back glass.Interior color choices could be better. Would suggest a few interior modifications: heated seats, auto door locks and 6 disc in dash CD player

Driving this car = pure joy. Being a woman who enjoys turning a head or two, I'm never disappointed when I'm cruising top-down along the freeway or the avenue. In short, the S2000's performance gives me a sense of power. It's great looks fit me like couture Chanel. The car is my idea the perfect accessory: understatment with pizazz.

This car is pure fun, plain and simple. It could have a bit more lower end torque but it's still a mean machine. From the moment I took it for a test drive... I was hooked! It's a little cramped with the top up but, at 5'9" it's not too bad. If I really had one complaint... Storage space is a problem. No glove compartment and trunk room to speak of. Just a great car though.

The S2000 is a car for anyone who loves to drive; except if you're over 5'10". I'm 6'5" and I got the car for my wife who is 5'2". It fits her perfectly. Very fast. At 6000rpms, this car will get up and go like a Honda CBR 900. It's a little sluggish in low-end torque, but it truley makes up for it once it hit's 6000rpms. It'll handle with the best of them.

It's nice that you like your S2000, but you might want to know just why the car is so exceptional. Honda built the S2000 as a 50th anniversary present to itself to commemorate its Formula One racing heritage. They've always been the best at squeezing maximum performance from small (i.e. light) engines -- so no, a "supercharged V6 or V8" was never part of the plan. Believe me, Honda knew what it wanted: they're the world's largest manufacturer of engines. P.S.: if you can't drive it fast, give it to me!

This is the greatest car Honda has ever built. Including the NSX. The technology and engineering that went into developing this car is first class. It is not for people that want plushness, amenities, and creature comforts. This car is for the pure driving experiance. Honda took roadsters back to the basics with this car and hit the bullseye!

The wife decided I needed a little 30 anniversary present. Something a little snappier than my 375hp 2000 Silverado. We'll compared to my 66 427 vett and 8 or nine other new BMW, Porcshe, Mazda, and Nissans, this unit wins hands down. Took it to the track does an honest 156mph, gives excellent handling, and still is great to drive 103 miles to work everyday. Good job Honda, nice mix of race and sports car. Add a supercharger, big tires and Koni's and this would be a nice race car.

It's been correctly quoted as the poor man's Ferrari 360 Spider. Captivating engine scream, wind in your hair, and begs for more spirited driving. (Resulting in a high insurrance rating). You must decide first that a 2 seater is practical enough for you. After that, this is the best 30K gift you can give your self. Noise, vibration, and harshness is actually better than my old Corolla. Harsh bumps only occur over very poorly maintained roads. I spoiled my self silly on this one. I'm the happiest 'kid' alive.

For under $35k you will not find a better performance car for the money. I challenge anyone to find a car that will do sub 5.5 sec 0-60 for this price. There are many cars out there that will do this for $70k or $125k, but not $33k. Some complain about the torque on the car, but honestly, if the car does 0-60 in 5.5sec, there is enough torque there, whether the number is high or not is not the issue. Some people do not get it, you can have a car with extreme torque that takes 7 seconds to get to 60mph.

Just starting to go through a mid-life crisis, I felt I needed something to help me with the problem. The S-2000 was it. Good , clean and sexy lines, a nice tight interior. The handling is wonderful. Acceleration is powerful. Even after 3 years of production I still get the looks and stares when I drive by. The car has never seen rain. Is garage kept and stored in the winter. Mileage is low as the time I have to drive it is short. But when the weather and traffic are right...nothing comes close to the thrill. And yes Margaret, it's a HONDA!

For the ones which criticise one of the ultimate convertible roadsters of all time because its too load or not enough room.This is definetly not the car for you!This is a machine built for the consumer that understands that this 2 litre motor 4cyl.produces more hp per litre hp than any other car built!My previous car was an 1995 m3 I would have never thought of owning a honda s2000 which i had criticed before now I regret because once I drove I was hooked aswell.This is the funnest most exhilerating car under $35K that I have ever driven even compared to the massive 3.5 litre 350z I chose the s2000 for a second car to have could not be more satisfied.

Bought this car in Chicago and drove it home to Texas. The tight suspension flattens out on the road. The handling is excellent and when you hit the power zone 5500 and up, it feels like a turbo is kicking in. For the price this is undoubtedly the best sports car for the money. On the way home had the pleasure to hook up with a Porsche Boxter. We played with each other for a while and then went to it. This little Road Rocket walked away from the Boxter. We backed off well over 100 (130 speedometer) with plenty off pedal left. Sometimes I need to remind myself it's a Honda!

I've had my '02 S2K for about a month now and I can't say enough good things about it! I love the 240hp/4 cyl combo. It did take me a couple days to learn how to drive it the way it was intended. It took some getting used to due to the "rev" factor. Although the radio has often been called "weak", I find it sufficient with the top up or down...or you could turn it off and just humm to the exhaust note! This car is not for everyone as the ride is very stiff and the interior is not as plush as say the Audi TT's. However, for those looking for something different and edgy or if you want to feel like a Formula One driver, this is the car for you!

After owning this car for a month I have to say.....I wish I would have waited. All the power is @ the high RPM bands which is great for highways and wide open roads but for day to day use in real world situations it leaves a lot to be desired. Another thing worth mentioning is that I had to have my wife take a cab when we got a flat tire because the damaged tire had to ride shotgun.

Wonderful car, consider I drive over 35,000 miles per year. It does have a rather harsh ride, compare to my old Prelude and Integra GSR. Nevery the less, it is a beautiful machine. If paying cash for the car, should look into a low mile used NSX.

For the comparatively small amount of money, this rocket brings a lot of excitement. It is an extremely fast car for a 4 cylinder: the 9000 RPM redline is atrocious. I’ve hit it a few times and it’s quite an experience. It’s a very light car so the acceleration gets the heart pumping fast. It is kind of like strapping a rocket between your legs. You get the sound, acceleration, and feel of doing so. On dry days, it grips the road like glue. Shifting and steering are superb. It’s a loud car, so if your looking for peace and quite, buy a Buick.

what a car

Let me tell you i have had alot of sports cars in my day hell i used to have a miata collectors edition that thing was alright not much power but nice looking but after i got this s2000 it just rocks my world for it's price. It also take corners very well nothing i could normally do with any other vehicle with that price.

I've had my S2000 for a bit more than 5 months. The vehicle has been very enjoyable in most areas: The finest 4- Cylinder motor on the planet, great 6- speed shifter, excellent handling. Gas mileage has been between fantastic, between 27 - 29 MPG. Issues? Storage space is a joke (no glovebox...and the storage space between the seats is difficult to get to while driving), and legroom is tight (I'm 6'1"). In the end, there's nothing that really competes with it @ the price: Not the Miata, not the Mustang, not the TT. The Z3 / Z4 are more expensive.

there are much better cars out there

I have always owned Honda's. I wish I hadnt got this one. I had a flat, and the tire wont fit in the back. All the power is at the very high RPM bands. it is cramped inside. There is no low end torque to speak of. Man what a waste.

dream machine

the handling can only be described as awesome. know the limit of your self and the car. no traction control makes this car a true drivers car the skills are put into your hands. the 6 speed manual gear box if crisp and precise. the gears shift effortlessly because of the close ratio gearbox. with the top down or up this car is a dream to drive. but when you have the top down is when it really shines. throw the car into a turn and it throws it back at you with no problem.

i get a smile every time i get into this car, after that my smile gets bigger! i've owned an MG years ago and this is way better. This car will scare most people before it gives and when it does it does gently. I drive it like a madman and my wife can drive it and be cool, its a wonderful machine!!

No torque, no facotry rim options.....

This car has no torque, who is willing to rev the car to 7000 rpm everyday just to get the horsepower and torque of a V6? Consistent high revs will lessen the life of the engine. Have no idea why Honda would do this. High horsepower is nice, but torque is nicer.

I love this car

What other car do you know which an electronic control panel that redlines at 8300 rpms? When you get to 7000 rpms and you feel the VTEC kick in, this car makes you feel like the pilot of an F- 15 fighter plane, the interior helps too. Everything you need to control is right at reach. The only problem I had was with my 2000 S2000 it doesn't have the option of coming with a clock, and the plastic back windshield that turns white. But that has all changed for 2002 with the addition of a clock and a glass back windshield. I get 31 mpg on average and am still putting out 280 horse! (with some mods of course)The car even has stock headers that are massive.

In low RPM, the S2000 drives like a normal car. Select a lower gear and press the gas pedal, a smile will come upon your face. It doesn't get better than this!

the best damn car on tha planet
