"Our desire - to create a car with a unique sense of oneness... A oneness of driver and car. It's the car you've been longing for." - Honda Damn right they are! This is the car I'm dying to get my foot on the accelerator. Build by the great people who brought us great cars and great engines, the S2000 was to commemorate Honda's 50th anniversary. Using only a 2.0litre VTEC Low Emmision Vehicle (LEV) engine to fire up 176kW of power and 208Nm torque, this mini dynamite sure burns rubber. Power is not what this mean driving machine is all about. Turn the key and the whole instrument panel lights up with digital speedometer and graphic tachometer. Push the red start button and the engine lets out a purr. The Honda S2000 features an electrically operated convertible soft top and highly rigid body construction usually only found in closed-body vehicles. With wind flowing through your hair and air-bags in front of you, you know you're in safe hands. With the engine mounted behind the front axle and a rear-wheel drive configuration, the S2000 boasts a 50/50 weight distribution for optimal handling balance. A real sport car indeed and definitely a head-turner. With a price range of the BMW Z3 and the performance of a Porsche Boxster, it's no wonder the demand for this car surpluses the supply.
