when did i ever bitch and moan about any aspect of the s2k? stop jumping on the bandwagon dawg. As a die hard fan of Honda Motor Company, i merely stated that i would love to see them stay in the competition NOT because the s is a crappy car but because i would always like to see the H on top of the competition as they used to be. Stop assuming and stop bandwagon-hopping. some of you just never got past the e-thug stage in life.

Wait! So both Japanese cars in there lost and you still whined and moaned about BM?

You guys are forgetting that the 370Z is not some weak crap, but has 350hp (realistically). The Carrera in there is the base model, not the S. The Cayman S is one hell of a track car and it won (though it started in front of the 370). The base Cayman wouldn't be as competitive, given its price is closer to the 135i and 370.

IMO, the fact that the S2000 is still able to hold it's own to this day against other competitors who have seen many model and design changes is very impressive to say the least. To me it speaks volumes about how well thought out the now nearly 10 year old design was. The never aging laws of physics still apply and always will.

If you ask me I think these guys are actually subliminaly promoting the S2000 by always including at leat one in almost all there Best Motoring series of videos. I have yet to see any of them were the S2000 was completly embarassed by another competior, even ones that cost twice it's original price.

I didn't see who was driving the one in the video but I know the older oriental dude who appears alot in these videos has one hell of a hot shoe on him and can drive the wheels off the S2000 as seen in the Nurburgring testing video on youtube.

But for that $ you get a car that is less raw than the S2k, not nearly as nice looking, no top down fun, has a horrible interior IMO, and it is not a Honda. I for one would not trade my S2k for a 370Z
regardless of whether it's a Honda or not, the 370Z, like the 350Z, is ugly...but it clearly outclassed the S on track

The value of these videos actually favors the S2000 owner. If and when I pass these cars on the track, I'll know it's because I'm the better driver. If/when they pass me, I can blame it on the car

I guess the logic doesn't work if all you do is bench-race and are more concerned with having than doing.

that's a s2000 typ's so it's not like CR in USA, it doesn't have any of stiffer suspension systems, so it remains the same as passed AP2's , so don't worry..
s2000 is still a fu(king nice car.....

I don't think that's true - its a CR with the soft top instead of the rear brace afaik.
