:roll: its just a Prototype.. and hell to me anything that even sounds like a Hardcore version of the S2000 is pretty sweet..
PS- I'm sure it wont have that spoiler on the production model.. maybe as an option.. :bah:

You forgot to tell that the power is up to around 257 hp (using the American spec 2.2L engine). Not that that'll help a lot, but still...

there is a VERY simple way Honda could have made the S2000 great.........its called a FACTORY TURBO.
The S2000 is a heavy car. Well, its lighter than some but thats all relative...it isnt light. The engine was great but it was always pulling too much weight.
I always thought a Lotus Elise would be best served by an S2000 engine instead of that Toyota Celica engine....................
anyway........

Well it's got a removable hard top.. so you've got the best of both worlds.
I definitely see Jay Leno influences in that front spoiler.. pretty fugly..
for some reason I see mini toyota supra in those thumbnails. |
Actually, you get the worst of both worlds. You won't get the structural rigidity of a coupe, and you don't get the convinent of the electrical convertible top. Plus, you gotta store that freaking thing somewhere coz it won't fit in the trunk. |
Well the S2000 chassis was designed to be "just as rigid" as if it had a regular hard top... so... you do get the best of both!

Eeeexactly!!
We don't want a riced up S2000 that looks like crap, we want a lightweight hardcore Type-R version of the already fast S2000 :roll:
And I'd take a regular S2000 over this anyday |
I would love to see the high-revving F20C S2000's engine in a lightweight Type R hothatch 
Making a special edition of the S2000 is useless since its 8 years old
Lazy Honda Should've replaced the NSX and S2000 since ages, specially that the S2000 is seriously underpowered compared to its current rivals

Haha, no but if I was you would definitely see this car being pushed to the Fast n Furious crowd and with a revised ricier(yes that is a new word) wing.
