Amazing how the driver (with help from that little 2.0l 240bhp vtec engine) can keep up with the motorcycle at 2m30sec.

What wonders me is that at 6m58sec an BMW e36 m3 passes the s2000, where the e36 m3 was nothing compared to the s2000 in bestmotoring tests/videos.

Damn... wish i had an s2000 myself....

Maybe because that part of the nordschleife is uphill, but look at this video where the s2000 beats the e36 m3's without a doubt! The integra also performs great.... beating the r32 and 147gta who have much more power.

the S2000 is virtually useless outside of a track. I've driven one and it's a total dog under 5000 RPM....felt like it had 50HP. AFTER 5000RPM, it really does FLY.......however it's not a good car to drive at all in daily use...it is a good track car though.

Agree...

My daily driver is a lease Vauxhall Vectra diesel (only 100bhp), so i can use that sweet little s2000 as fun cruiser :)

Let's check my bank account again... :(

sweet vidz, thanks! downloading now. :lol:

s2k does feel like a dog under 5k. I work at a dealership and the car feels like a very precise steering civic when moving around teh car lot. :(
