2003 Honda S2000 review from North America
"Reliable Sports Car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My cigarette Lighter Plug came loose after 6 months of excessive use. Everything else is running fine.
General comments?
A great car for a great price. Handles like a dream. A little tight in the cockpit, but most sports cars are. VTEC Kicks in at 6000rpm feels like it has a supercharger, which is great especially when it's a 2.0L 4 cylinder NA engine pushing 240HP. Haven't came across any other engine like it that can produce that much power per liter without any NOS, turbos, or superchargers. Extremely reliable, so far haven't had any major mechanical problems.
