The Honda S2000 Does Not Get Enough Love And Respect

The Honda S2000 is the proverbial middle step-child. It simply doesn’t get much love or attention. Though many consider the Honda S2000 as one of the greatest roadsters of all-time, it seems to fly under the radar when lists are made of the best sports car or even JDM cars of all-time. People instantly think of the Supra, RX-7, Skyline GTR, and even the Accord or MR-2 but the Honda S2000 simply doesn’t make most top 5 or even top 10 lists. I was making my morning commute in my S2k which got me pondering why this might be the case. The Honda S2000 is an agile and nimble car with a solid to great (depending on who you ask) 6 speed manual and of course the legendary VTEC engine which begs to be rung out. But there are certainly downsides and drawbacks to this legendary roader which could explain the lack of love and respect that the car gets from many enthusiasts.
