Should You Buy a Honda S2000

Показать описание

What I would argue is the best coupe sports car convertible ever made is now climbing in price and is making a lot of people wonder, "is the AP1 or AP2 Honda S2000 still worth it?" Well today, that's exactly what we talk about but let me know your thoughts!

I drove my S2000 in -20 degrees this past weekend because it seemed like fun lol. Buy em, drive em, enjoy em!

Of course you should buy one. But please drive it and take it to shows and enjoy it. Please don't hide it from the public.

As a S2000 owner, watch out for a few things:
- Oil, check the oil every other fill up. AP1s have this issue more often but still worth checking. I lost an engine because I didn't check for 1 month
- TCT, worth upgrading but it's not as big of an issue as people make it seem, get a Billman TCT
- Snap oversteer, yep it happens, but you can mitigate it with a bumpsteer kit if it really bugs you
- Rear axle spacer kit, worth doing if you plan on lowering your S2000, I need to do it on mine
- Valve adjustment, every 3 years you gotta get it adjusted because VTEC Hondas have solid lifters. Best to get a S2000 shop to do it for you but you can DIY it. Should be a $200 job so depends on if it's worth your time and research.
- Support the top as it comes down. When putting up the convertible top, be sure to hold the top as it is coming down. The top snaps a little on the way down to the a pillar and that can break the stretchy straps. Just something to do.

Even though it has less torque, Its still the ultimate touge car alongside the RX-7. This car is probably the best reving honda of that decade.

Honda s2000 and nsx are my absolute dreamcars

Nowadays some car guy (maybe even you Alex) should make a video titled: "the list of cars I should have bought back in 2010 /20XX but I did not because I have not expected them to get so pricey so quick!" like a 2 hour video of all the cars one should have gotten ages ago before the prices went up... and yeah I do know of the 25 years old Japan imports cars policy in USA - to you USA car guys, it is oh so much more reason why it is slightly better here in EU...

I just bought one a couple of months back. Amazing value for money.
One gets the looks, the reliability, road respect, a great manual transmission which is getting rarer and rarer as we go. It will go up in value

I remember street racing against the s2k when it just came out and beating it in my EG with a H22 swap. People went crazy as if I beat king Kong 😂 it was a fun night. Dear God I'm getting old 🤣🍻

I bought my 2002 s2000 6 years ago for 12k with 56k miles on it. Just about to hit 80k soon and they are worth 25k-27k with 80k which is ridiculous🤯
