Ye olde 'S2000 is dangerous' thread
Not sure if this has been posted before but there's a somewhat comical 5 pager on the VW Vortex about the S2000. It degenerates towards the end but makes for some entertaining reading.
Thread is here.

- so true......I also liked "Think of the S2000 as a sharp knife. It is a great tool if used correctly, but can be deadly in the wrong hands. Would you ever blame a knife for being too sharp? No. In short, it's the driver, not the car."

To be fair, most people on the site are clear on it being drivers that are dangerous rather than cars. It's just 2 or 3 of them that don't have a clue.
And the knife analogy is good.

"Unlike most cars on the road,
Honda didn't tune it for a pile of understeer to prevent
morons from killing themselves. The result is a car that
does what you tell it to, whether what you tell it is sane or stupid. "
