Honda Car Forum

I am thinking about getting a Honda S2000 probably around year 2000-2003 because that'll be the most I can afford. What are some strong points and some weak points about it. Like maintenance or handling, or power, or gas, or anything like that.Yeah the space is fine because I took out my backseats in my civic and built a plexiglass speaker wall so I can only hold two people now anyway. my civic has a b18c1 w/ header, exhaust, intake manifold, cai, and stage 2 clutch. How do you think it would do against an s2k? I want something with around the same amount of power or more so that's why. If you don't have a clue don't worry about it but thanks so far.

PRO:-Nice looking car-Not that many people have it-puts out wonderful performance for a an NA 4-banger-wonder suspension out the door-Girls dig it (Only if u don't put the top down when they have their hair all done and nice....trust me...haha)-PERSONALLY, I like how all the climate controls are placed around the steering wheel, very easy to navigate around while you're driving.-This car gives you options, hard top or soft top depending on season.-shifting is very precise compard to most cars.-Can't beat the sound of hitting VTECCon:-To be honest, its a little pricey for a convertible...I mean it still is a $34K car...not cheap.-It's a nervous ride when it rains really hard and you don't have the proper tires on...my advice...be super careful and just be wary about weather changes, the stock tires that come with your brand new S2k don't have the capacity to handle super duper hard rain. Lots of ppl have lost their S2k"s for this reason.-It sucks when some of my friends need a ride home, but I can only take one passenger...so I have to take multiple trips at times...not a big deal if you don't have this problem, but i have lots of friends with no cars...poor college students...haha.-thieves want to steal your seats....and than key your car after they steal it cause its such a nice car...not kewl.

Strong: hold the F* on with her on back roads that are curvy....she'll take YOU for a ride....mean car.Bad: she's a true sports, road car. Your butt and back will pay the price.Test drive her a lot, for she is not like most cars....she is a true road car.

Get a 2006 s2000 they r nasty my sisters bf had one and it would beat 06 gts and 89 5.0s supercharged and alot of 4bangers it says that it is susposed to beat a civic with exhaust intake ecu header and turbo.. so go wityh that

Awesome car!! I love them... they are 6 speeds, that's definately awesome, I guess the only weak point I can think of is that it kind of lacks trunk space and it only holds 2 people. I hope you like yr S2000, they rock... good luck!

DEFINITELY get a 2.2 liter car, the low end is much better. The only bad point is that the rear tires wear out pretty quickly, plan on about 10k miles even if you baby it. As they wear down, the car gets very squirrely in rain, which is probably the case described above. When I have new tires on, it's fine in rain. Check the oil often, my first one (2001) burned a lot but my new one (2007) has been fine so far.

dudeeee-it is a nice car if u look from outsideit goes very fast than none carsvery less people have the car
