Honda Engineers Want A New S2000, But It’s Too Expensive To Make

The Honda S2000 has evolved to become an absolute legend. It was a rear-wheel-drive, front-mid-engine sports car between 1999 and 2009. It featured a six-speed manual and naturally aspirated inline-four VTEC powertrains that revved to 8,000 RPM and delivered up to 247 horsepower. The S2000 also offered nearly perfect 50/50 weight distribution. It hit the sweet spot between entry-level sports cars like the Mazda MX-5 Miata and German sports cars like the Porsche Boxster and BMW Z3.
