Think the Honda S2000 is too new and too common to be collectible? The model–well, its show car predecessor–first appeared at the 1995 Tokyo Motor Show, while Graham Rahal, Bobby’s son and an accomplished racer in his own right, recently sold a track-ready, last-of-the-line S2000 Club Racer for $200,000.
But that doesn’t mean they’re all six-figure cars. Depending on color, …
These are so good.
9000 RPM redline, bolt action shifter, and it had the same project manager as the NSX and Integra Type R (Shigeru Uehara).
Last of the Golden Age Hondas? Probaby.
Man I loved the S2000 when they came out.
Then I drove one, and did not like it at all. Might be the only convertible anything I have ever driven and did not care for it. Great seats, but not possible to find a comfortable seating position. I honestly could not believe it, a Honda that I did not like. Miata fits me like a glove though, go figure.

Hey how tall are you?
Looking to potentially purchase one, but someone insight on why it wasn't comfortable would be nice!
Thanks!

I tried driving one of these back in 2004/2005. I liked it a lot but I couldn't get in or out without catching my feet on the door/inner fender panel. I'm 6'1" and 200 pounds, so not exactly the biggest guy. My inseam is 32".
Loved the w2ay it drove and revved. I was so close to buying it though. If I took my shoes off before and after entering it, I could do it without catching my foot.
In reply to JakeMacZ :
Yeah, the car’s one fault: The interior isn’t exactly roomy.
In reply to JakeMacZ :
I'm also 6'1" and I had exactly the same problem -- long legs!
