R&T extracted a 5.3sec 0-60 run from a CR, same as from their Mustang GT. Also, both clocked 13.8 in the 1/4 mile, yet the Mustang made it to 104 at the end, vs only 100.8 for the CR... How does that work? Is trap speed calculated from two points starting with the 1/4 line and extending further out?
CR's are slow in a straight line due to the giant ricer wing

the s2000 and the Del Sol have nothing in common in the chassis what so ever. That guy is a retard.

The only thing the s2000 has in common with the del sol is that you see sky if you look up and they are both made by honda.

I always thought the S2000 was the lovechild of a del Sol and an NSX

No, I'm not upset about the fact that someone said an S2k was basically a Del Sol. What I *am* upset about is that there are such retards in this world!!

one thing i do hope the sol and the S have in common is the longevity...
our sol, which is also my wife's daily, just hit 300,000 miles and it still runs and looks almost as good as the day we bought it new.
