The Honda S2000 (56K warning)

Honda S2000
2.0L 4 cyclinder


This is the family sports car, our Honda S2000. As the story goes dad came home one day because the local dealer offered him the car for the weekend. But monday it was ours. It was a really spot of the moment thing and no one has looked back since.

^^^Me

Over the past six months i have gained my learners permit and now drive it is often as i can. It is a great feeling when you rev the engine to 9000 RPM be fore shitfing to the next gear and doing it again. It is such an easy car to speed in. Not having driven many sports cars i cant tell you that it compares good, but from what i can tell it holds the road really well in the corners except in the wet where it can be a bit tricky.
I dont believe in modifications that can rice the car up. However we did get S2000 lasered on the wind deflector whcih looks ok.

finally me with the car a couple of years back and TT it is a coincidence with the shirt

[TT]

The car is a lovely one of course, and all the pics are marvellous :D

As for the shirt... yes sure.. a coincidence :D LOL do you really think I could believe this? :P

[cho_888]

i have no idea why but all the picks i show you happen to have those in then, as for the GP and motor show i was trying to look nice so as i could get into the cars and it worked. As i said this one is just a coincidence

[sameerrao]

Nice car. I drove one about 3 years ago - it had an awesome gearbox - snick.. snick ...snick.

The 2000 edition was a bit nervous though - especially in the wet. Yours should be a lot better..

A great track car.

[TT]

Hehe, I have a few of them myself, but quickly checking the rare pic of TT I have around, I wear one in maybe 10% of them :P that's what I call "coincidence" :D

[sikx5]

Nice car dude......have you dropped the cluctch at 9,000rpm?
must be fun revin all the way up there.....

[cho_888]

not from 9000 i think that would end in a bit of pain, but i have from about 6. My cusin was over from the states earlier this year and he showed me how to do it with out destroying my clutch. How does he know? he has one and an NSX.
but yeah it is good fun and loud as you could imagine

[sikx5]

Ohh nice a NSX too, i think i remember you posted some pics earlier? a yellow one with BBS wheels?

i just got my license and am finding out all these tricks, hehehe its good fun.

The car is awsome dude, I think the S200 has a great engine, and the sound of the car drives me crazy!!!!!! :mrgreen:

[oscargarza88]

hey nice pics... ur lucky! that car is awosome i got in on one at the housotn auto show and the whole car fits around u great, and the steering wheel is like small in the perfect position, i would like to hae one if i sell my car, but i doubt it since the insurance over here is waaay too high :?
and ur just 16! and i thought i was lucky...
hope u take some more shots like those but wallpaper size since i cant find cool s2000 wallpapers

[gis]

very nice car and nicely taken pics.congrats at bein able to drive such a car at 16. :D

[PATo355]

Amazing car , i guess ive seen pics of your car b4 , some pics are really wallpapers for collectors , nice that your family lets you drive the car very often , is really a headturner

[SilviaEvo]

oOo Ferrari! well the S2K is beautiful as well

[jpatino03]

I'm glad you like the car Cho! I finally got to drive my dad's S2k (the white one in the sig), and you're right about revving it to the redline (though its 8K on the new one), its lots of fun and the car is absolutely manic, especially in VTEC range.

Question: does it also seem to you that Honda's numbers are really conservative? ours 0-60'd in like 5.3.

Yes i do think that, the times can be beaten if you drop the clutch from a high number. most ar magazine give it a terrible 0-60 because they dont drive it like it has to be driven and thats with lots and lots of revs.

oh the car the car is very dirty at the moment :oops:

[M-pulse]

What part of vic is that track?? is that phillip island??

[evoWalo]

cho_888 what lens are you using on your 10D? makes me wanna take photos of my ride again.

Oh yeah... nice car. :)

[cooperluke]

Apart from the steering wheel on "the wrong side of the car" it's a beautiful machine!!!
I've seen one in a dyno, and this shit screams like anything else!! It as a power curve that only stops on the ignition cut. Until then it goes up and up and up!

[cho_888]

i was using a 24-70L F2.8 i think. One question when did i mention the camera i was using?
