    Good Points: Value for money. Ultimately we all, rich and poor alike, want the best return for our hard, or easily come by dosh. With a sports car this value is harder to quantify. Sure, it has to look a million dollars, go like an F-15, sound like Jimmy Hendrix and handle like a star wars X wig fighter but the essence of all of this is that it has to bring a smile to your face and send waves of pleasure coursing through you laced with tingles of excitment and topped off with a large dollop of mischief. This the S2000 achieves more of per pound than any other car I know. And I've tried more than my fair share.

    Bad Points: Against this you have to balance up the group 20 insurance issue, the band G tax fiasco and 28 mpg on posh petrol - super unleaded to you. You'll get 10,000 miles on your £300 set of rear tyres (20,000 on the front) and pop it in for a service twice as often as some of its competitors.

    General comments: Much has been written in these reviews about the qualities, characteristics and statistics surrounding the Honda S2000 and there is little that a test drive wouldn't readily confirm, particularly some of the myths. There has been too much emphasis on the S2000 being loud, raw, tail happy and all other things associated with your average track dat car. Lets clear this one up. Around town and at moderate speeds this car is a peach. Up to 5,500 revs which will deliver over 90 mph in 6th, the engine is brisk but not offensive, the stearing light, easy, accurate and positive, the engine noise is relatively low and the gears are almost to good to be true. For anyone who wants an affordable sports car without wanting to thrash the nuts off it, this is a good car - it has remarkably good breaks too. You can pick these up new from a number of places, as imports, for £21,500 - oh and don't worry, Honda have a 3 year, 60,000 mile pan European warranty. I sold my first one after 2.5 years and 33,000 miles - for 4k less than I bought it new! Beat that Herr Porsche! 2.5 years on I've just bought my second one and for those of you old enough to remember, the ready Brek glow is alive and well.

    This was a love at first site for me? Since the first time I saw one at college, I knew this was the car for me I wanted, so about 6 years later I bought one and a year later I sold it for something more practical and here I am again am planning to buy another one, even though there are so much more choices out there now and probably many people think its not worth it but I have to say that Love does not need reasoning, you love it because you love it! This is a definition of a true sports car a ...

    Simply awesome (I have demoed these cars since 2003 and every single person has re-booked for a 2nd test drive) An incredible car that has to be driven to fully appreciate what a performance car is all about

    Love the Honda S2000 2.0i Roadster, buy one they are great and hold their value. Only go for ones with Honda SH as the Vtec needs to be serviced by guys in the know.

    I bought my Honda S2000 2.0i Roadster from new, in Stratstone (best colour), with optional bodykit. It is the fastest car I have ever owned. Build quality and solidity of chassis is fantastic and the engine is a dream over 6k revs. I've raced everything... S3's, Subaru's, Porsche Boxster 3.2 S, SLK's, Mercedes CLS500, BMW Z4 2.0i as well as your average BMW driver and the car's performance (in the dry) has always astonished the rival. Lost one race to a Evo FQ320, oh and don't try a 911 turbo... ...

    This is the best car I have ever owned - the s2000 is a head turner with a very unique look.

    This is the most fun car I have ever owned. I have owned other "hot" cars, however, none have combined in so many ways the qualities necessary to thoroughly excite it's driver. Drive it, you'll love it.

    I had a budget and wanted a car to make me smile. I looked at a z3/4, everyone's got one, and found a boxster in my price range, tried it, then came across an S2000. I drove it, loved it, bought it, and have not looked back. There are not many on the road. I'm still smiling. It's got blistering performance, a screeming high rev engine and good economy when driven below 5000 revs (only by the wife). If you want a practical day to day work/shop runaround its not for you. If you want a car that nee ...

    I regret to say after buying my dream car, the Honda S2000, and driving it for 12 months I am very disappointed with it. After two close smashes, one where I turned 180 degrees in the wet I had to get rid of it. Definately an overrated car. Do not buy one, have an Impreza T will blow it away.

    I have now owned 2 Honda S2000s. Firstly a 2002 first revision model and then a 2004 facelift model. Both are great cars but that later model is just that much better. A better drive and ride and better looking. A two seater practicality can never be high - but for me that just doesn't matter. I've driven all the so-called competition at one time or another and I'd only trade it in for a Boxster 3.2S.

    I have been driving the Honda 2.0i Roadster 2004 model year S2000 for 2 years now and I love it, I have had 3 already as I just keep buying a new one every 6 months, I am holding on for the new 06 model out shortly. You can even get a weeks shopping in the car!! I would reccommend this car to everyone!!! I had a Civic Type R too, they are awesome too.

    I have one of the first three Honda S2000's to come to our area in Sept of 1999. It's a 2000 model & doesn't have the glass rear window but I LOVE it. It's my dream car. I've had it over 6 years now & it still looks & drives like new. The Honda service center in our area is great. It handles so well & responds so quickly when needed. I hope to have it for as long as I can drive. It's just my husband & myself & he has a CRV for when we need more room. I have the S2000 for when we need the ...

    The Honda S2000 2.0i Roadster is an exhilerating drive - fun and manic that is guaranteed to make you grin! All motorcyclists should immediately dispense with their bikes and are advised to buy one of these beauties. This car is a real 'boys toy' - Porsche drivers will not bother racing you, a 93 Carrera yielded too easily. As a 40 year old, I have now regained my youth... tee hee!

    I own a Honda S2000 the car is just great. It puts a smile on my face every time I drive it. Would not trade it for any car right now maybe except a new Viper which I can not afford. I test drove many cars including the Boxter S and the S2000 just seemed to be more of a sports car. If you are not extremeley tall or overweight the car is quite comfortable and I'm 5'10. Getting in the car is easy but getting out is a totally diffrent story. The way the car handles and how it accelerates with the e ...

    First time owned a Honda and test drove the S2000 out of curiosity and was hooked! What an interesting car it is with a screaming 9,000 rpm 240 bhp engine out of just 2 litres. Docile it can be at low revs with a light clutch mated to a sweet slick 6 spd gearbox. Quick steering, great brakes and a car that goes through bends like no other I've driven, real sports car unhindered by traction control, but with ABS just in case ! Best of all you don't see that many around and is cheaper than a Pors ...

    The Honda S2000 2.0i Roadster is the best overall performance car I have ever owned, even compared to my 1965 442 Oldsmobile convertible, through to my last BMW M3. The mid range acceleration, over 6,000 rpm, is awesome. I was afraid that comfort would be a problem after a few hours, but was surprised to find that not to be the case. I drove it for 9 hours with only gas stops without any problems. I wish they would add an integrated top cover similar to the Boxster's. The cup holder location lea ...

    I got a Honda S2000 2.0i Roadster Sports Car after driving the Mazda RX-8, Audi TT, BMW Z4, and MB SLK. My choosing the S2000 was a function of my wallet and a style of performance that evoked fond memories of my '94 Toyota MR2, to which the S2000 is a worthy successor. While I'd have to say that I slightly prefer the styling of the MR2, the drop top and performance more than make up for any deficiency. The oft-quoted praise of the gearbox is certainly deserved as every shift feels purposeful ...
