Great video, I'm still deciding which one to get as my first car. The ap1 or ap2? Is the ap1 stronger and better handling than the ap2? Also is the ap2 more bigger and roomier than ap1?
@PhreshNBeat That's an ongoing discussion. The AP1 might be a better track car, the higher redline, faster steering ratio, and the 'pointy' front end (and easy to rotate back end) all contribute to that feel. However, for every person who likes a loose rear, there are those that complain about 'snap oversteer' so I'd have to say it depends on your driving style. The AP2 despite the lower redline, actually has more power where most people use it. This probably makes it a better daily driver
The hell? Honda never won 3 F1 championships, I mean they powered McLaren, but I don't think they can directly claim it. I don't see Mercedes taking all the credit for Hamilton's 08 championship. All though, I wish Senna was alive to see the S, he would love it.
@929ish It's like turbo kicking in @6000 but the engine's NA. You'll notice a change in sound and a surge in power. Drive one and you'll see. The bottom line is, it's hard to wipe the big smile off your face when driving at 9000 (yup, I have an AP1 hehe).
I mentioned this earlier. We asked EVERYONE to come out. I got confirmations from a lot of folks, Asians and Haole's alike. It turned out that for one reason or another none of the Haole's showed up. It was not a 'slight' on my part, if anything, they 'dissed' me by not coming out.
Oh my gosh, this is a great video. I can't believe you guys got into "race" discussions. Let's talk about the car and the great community that has flourished because of it. No need to bring race into it, yah?
Next time I'm in Hawaii, I'll look for an s2k meet, and I'll be more interested in the color of your cars, than your skin!
yo i didnt get the part the guy said the vtec kick in at 7thousand rpm?? my cuzin kicks in at 3.5 egzacly is it bcuz he has a chip or its like that stock?!
This is a great documentary. For all around audience, but i wanted to really point this out to people who think Honda are "rice rockets" and who think the honda s2000 is just a s*** car. Thanks for the great video.
Ocelot6: I appreciate you comments, but you should know that we are in Hawaii and there are a lot of Asian owners. However, we did have a number 'white guys' scheduled to be interviewed but they were all 'no shows' for one reason or another.
it's EXACTLY 9000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It depends on da type of honda motor. S2K Factory VTEC is at 6k rpm. V6 Accord is at 3.5k for its vtec. But u can change it pending on engine tuning
