Is the S2000 engine F20C the highest reving production engine for an automobile? If not what other cars have a 9000 redline or higher.

Phase II

Motorcycle's rev higher and they are production motors. (I know I'm being a jerk)

What were the redlines of the S500, the S600, and the S800. If I remember correctly, they were very rev/friendly, almost motorcycle-engine-in-car.

I just read that the RX-8 is 2970 pounds... If that's true, our cars are still faster.
