  • Lmao "don't believe the Germans!"

  • the s2k has the most potential

  • thats wat u call vtec-s2000

  • lol at his American accent at 7:05

  • Z4 for me all the way. Looks and sounds the best - The new one looks epic. between the S2k and Boxter though, I'm not so sure maybe boxter

  • The s2k looks like a fish..the boxer is a cheap wanna be Porsche and the BMW is pay for name...buy subi..lots more fun.

  • buy s2000 and spend the extra money on twin turbo

  • Honda needs to make airplane engines!

  • before u take the new miata.. take a look at the car on a lift.... u will find out just how cheaply they r being made.... mostly high impact plastic bits.....

  • how bout the VW bug??? thats a girl car... no????

  • Think I'll take... the Mazda Miata

  • the s2000 looks like it's made for girls compared to the Z4, i say buy it in PINK

  • @FunBoy3030 First of all there is no such thing as a girl car but, my personal opinion is that the Z4 is the "girliest" of the 3 cars. The S2000 appears to be more stiff. It would be kinda cool to have a pink car though.

  • @JacoPastorius99 the S200 has no lines on sides like the Z4, it's just soft for me, nothing new. just look at the lines and the back/front of the Z4, don't tell me that's the back of a girl car.

    There are cars for girls, a Citroen C2 or Volkswagen New Beetle for example :)

  • @FunBoy3030 The Z4 is more curvy, round, luxurious, & softer. The S2000 seems MUCH more like a sports bike: stiff. Sports bikes are not really suitable for your normal girl. I could see why people would think that the Z4 is manly looking with those lines running down the sides etc. But, in my eyes those lines look elegant and soft/smooth. The beetle is pretty girly looking but I still try my best to respect men who drive cars that are girly. A C2 in my eyes is just like an S2000: a sports bike.

  • @JacoPastorius99 A C2 really, has nothing to do with sports. I wouldn't put it in the same class as the S2000. But the S2000 just feels normal compared to a Z4. In any case the Z4 sdrive35is is better than all the cars we mentioned. Top Gear did a great review of it. watch?v=yTac4izAGos

  • @FunBoy3030 I am not saying the C2 has good performance like an S2000, I just saying it looks a little sporty and probably has a somewhat stiff suspension.

  • @JacoPastorius99 have you seen the Z4 sdrive35is? it's like nothing else, check it out

  • @light4darkness where did you read that?

  • Its spoorty ! aint got no suspension! its spoooorty! LOL jeremy :D

  • I would take the S2K for sure. I ve driven several german cars and the problem with those cars is : they are more expensive and not that reliable.

    People buy german cars because they think its quality? Because of the fact that it is a BMW, Audi, Mercedes, ... u are just paying more money for the name, and thats just stupid ...

  • what episode is this

  • what's wrong with a 6 speed?

  • The Boxster and BMW are more for wife swappers, not that I don't really have anything against them but it just isn't my thing...

  • hahaha funny shit.....Boxter poppy!!!!!

  • whatever choice it is....one thing is certain: this must be the best work in the World and these guys are beyond the most lucky ones.

  • theres only 1 reason to buy a Z4, because u cant afford a Boxter

  • @peterwatsonkent There is only one reason to buy a Boxter, because you can't afford a 911... ;-)

  • I've had a BMW M3 and a 911 Carrera S and while the Porsche wins hands down he is right in the you buy a Boxster because you can't afford a 911

  • "There are a few things i dont like about this pink car, its got too many gears, 6, not enough cylinders 4, and it does too many revs, 9000" what a dumbass! Honda All day!

  • @NakedSnakeBlGBOSS Porsche had to learn reliability from Toyota? Lets hope not - when a Toyota accelerates out of control, the brakes fail and the wheels drop off its not a problem as they have no power but even a basic Porsche would create a big problem. You are clearly American.

  • @sjpb1982 Yes because a nationality is relative to intelligence and just it's so cool to be anti-American these days.

  • overall the porsche boxter is a flawless machine...those poor slobs that don't own one will only knock it really because they can't afford to own one......

  • Gosh Jeremy needs to stop his fake American accent because it sounds so ugly and he doesn't really sound American it's like he's from Mississippi. They just speak gibberish.

  • James May really pisses me of...

    HE MENTIONS ALL THESE AMAZING THINGS ABOUT THE S2000 AND CONTRADICTS HIM SELF ABOUT WHAT A "SPORTS CAR" SHOULD BE ABUT.

    god damb it hes stupid !

  • @rapandrnb Was this an ironic statement? "god damb it hes stupid "

  • @sjpb1982 would it be ironic if you "suck my dick" ?

  • why does the s2000 get the crappy soundtrack :(

  • don't belive Germans

  • Honda s2000 is the top roadster...!!!!!!!!!

  • S2000 rulez

  • ugly z4 wtf

  • s2k ftmfw!!!

  • Boxter is better than the other 2 wanna-be sportscars. Its an amazing machine!!!

  • why dont Honda make a straight I6 for that s2000? 6 cylinders sound much better and have a more power instead of reeving small engine.

  • @aleksankazakov Because why would u like a bigger engine? To put more fuel in it when it does the same? 2.0 4-cil vtec at max 9k rpm is "kind of" economical at low rps with that engine compaired to a I6.

    You are right about the sound tough, but when vtec kicks in the S2K sounds nice also i find :)

  • @phtmexplo It is not true that the bigger engine will take up more gas. only full throt. Top Gear did a test where they tested Toyota Prius vs M3 and M3 got better gas milage, since it's engine didnt have to work as hard as Toyotas small 4 cylinder. For example a Cadi Deville can get up to 26mpg, that is the same as Honda Accord which has a half the engine. I used to have a Mitsubishi car, it had 160hp and I wasted twice more gas than I do now with my 240hp BMW I6. I can see it in my pockets.

  • Boxster is a ugly hunk of yellow crap, go 911 or go home.

  • Haahah when Jeremy did the impression of an American i burst into laughter. "It's sporty!"

  • "Don't Believe The Germans!!" hahaahhaa Jeremy is awsome

  • S2000 is overpriced

  • Around minute 7 the guy is driving a BMW and calling it an American car?

  • @Speed1ve The z3 and z4 were designed in America, just like the Nissan 350z was also designed in America.

  • losher loshherhahaahahah

  • too bad that Honda doesn't sell those here in the Philippines.

  • actually the Honda is the least powerful with 237hp

    the Boxster 2.9L makes 252hp and the 3.7L makes 306hp

    the BMW makes 262hp

  • @ncsufan1 mayb the porsche and bmw are heavier...............

  • @ncsufan1 i think 3L straight 6 BMW engine used to produce around 230hp back then. you are talking about the current version. and i think this particular boxster (it's not an "S" if you noticed) probably has a 2,5L or 2,7L flat 6, which generates something between 200-225hp. so clarkson, at least for this time, isn't making it up :) . that s2000 engine generates about 120hp/L which is a figure ferrari lately passed with 458.

  • @ncsufan1 dude the honda has no turbo! imagine it with one..

  • @MrKommis360 actually the f20c is a beast N/A. turbo just doenst seem right...

    but the s2k is more hp per cylinder and liter

  • @kimchislayer

    love N/A engines. turbo and superchargers just have way more to break. i dont want to have to wait for my engine to warm up so i dont kill my turbo;s bearings, nor do i want to have to change my oil more often.

    N/A ftw!

  • @cameron20020 HELL YEAH

  • s2000 is the best roadster on the market, GREAT CAR!

  • S2000 has an amazing engine, every stretch of road you just can't help but put your foot down. So much fun to drive!

  • This is how I view it: after buying an S2000, you've got £6,000 to modify either the suspension, brakes, tires, intake, exhaust, engine internals, forced Induction, etc. Without these modification the S2000 still out performs the other two.

    Yeah, I'm really thinking that I want one, now.

  • This video is really making me want an S2000, partly for the purpose that it is a very reliable car.

  • Jeremy's American accent is dead on.

  • @desimunda116 what the hell part of america are you from its close at best if yor a cowboy from the 1800's

  • Z4 ftw, I really respect the S2000 also

  • I'm in love with Z4's. would mind an old Z4. really looking forward to the day when I can afford a descent convertible. I'm 20 years old and I own a ford focus 07. great car, lovely to drive however I just get so excited at the idea of owning a convertible. Am I the only one?! does anyone have any advice? I live in Aberdeen. rich city so the prices are jacked up. I will be buying one from another city. I was thinking about what engine is suitable for me as I'm concerned about insurance, cheers

  • @TheMightyEuan I own a Z4 2,5 from 2003 - great car, highly recommendable, and honestly i think the old Z4 looks better than the new one. The new one looks a bit too "polished", whereas the old one looks more "brutal"!

    I agree with Clarkson though, the ride is really hard, but thats part of owning a roadster.

  • These guys really hate America's cars...the BMW isn't even American thats an insult to American cars

  • @NateJames1 thats just plain stupid - sorry

  • @NateJames1 It was both designed and built in California. By European standards American cars have very poor handling.

  • @NateJames1 It was both designed and built in California. By European standards American cars have very poor handling.

  • Comment removed

  • @worknsnow345 huh? Honda is a small outfit compared to Daimler, VW, even BMW. I don't buy the notion that Honda is far above everyone else - just a perception, usually peddled by Americans. Honda isn't very innovative either, look at their current lineup. No direct injection, no turbos, no supercharger, no dual clutch automatics, no innovative convenience/safety features. Hyundai is now more innovative than Honda, who has undoubtedly lost it's way.

  • Wouldnt want any of them tcuz there convertibles. For me a hardtop is way nicer and more agressive looking unless you a women or like the guy in the vid said a virgin banker

  • I'd love the S2000, except for the 4 pot engine, it ruins the car for me. I don't like Porsches, because I live in Stuttgart - they are so common round here, and every single one of them either has a businessman or a woman in her 50s in it. The BMW would be my choice, but you buy such cars for their looks, and this is just too agressive and boy racer. So I wouldn't want any of these.

  • Buy the S2000, spend the extra money optioning or modifying it.

  • couldn't agree more about top gear these days... used to be soo much better when it was actually about the cars and not all about what ridiculous shenanigans they would get up to

  • which epi is this

  • s2000 best!

    

  • 9000 into third; now THATS what i call, an engine!

  • If JC spoke with an American accent on "BBC America HD Top Gear" the entire show, I would laugh continuously for an hour or so.

  • some great music in this video, looks like top gear has a tendency to do that quite often..

  • porsche makes the worst looking sports cars hands down

  • "Don´t believe the German´s!" Shut up, German technic is good, maybe very good. What else? The Honda s2000 is a very great driving mashine. I like Honda. Greetings to Japan.

  • Honda in the earth

    Honda in mind

    Honda for life

  • Bet You Won't Click Here! :P

  • i got a question for you Z4 or S2000?

  • @donpaleton s2000

  • omg jeremy's best american accent ever

  • thats a job reviewing cars

  • hahahahaha i loled at his american sporty comment

  • None of the guys could find anything tangibly wrong with the S2000. The only things wrong with it, supposedly, is that it has six gears, has a high rev range, and has a four cylinder. Last time I checked, those aren't bad things.

  • And for the record the Zed has the fasted fully automatic roof as one has to use your hand on the Honda.

  • all of the public roads in america are smooth, unlike Britain, so stop hatin' Jeremy

  • @thumbwar73 You've obviously never been to Chicago, our roads are just horrible here, they beat your cars to death.

  • s2k FTMFW

  • For once James May is totally correct. If your ego can get past the Boxster being 'entry level' it is a wonderful, precision instrument designed perfectly for carving up tight, twisty roads!

  • 7:09 ommmgggg that was fucking hilarious

  • you know that this person is a mania if you drive an s2k..

    i am still working my ass off plus school to drive one.

    FOR THE RPM! AP1 pleASEEEEEE

  • more i seeing this video more i love the Honda S2k......i love Honda but respect to BMW and Porsche

  • im american

  • boxter is not porsche!

  • By far..... The S2000 shines above the BMW, and specially the Boxter.

  • @Rumblefishbruno vtech is for sisis

  • @hellraiser84 what's Vtech? The company that makes phones?

  • @gevz2kx no!!dont you know it yet??it's the company which rip's asses!!

  • thumbs up for jeremy's fantastic southern accent

  • S2k absolutely eats the boxter. A cayman on the other hand will keep pace with the s2000. The added rigidity of the roof on the cayman makes all the difference. Boxter is too soft imo. (i own an s2k and have the pleasure of driving a cayman every once and awhile.)

    Z4 is just bleh

  • Its sporty, its sporty!!!!!, LOL LOL LOL

  • :D I'd go for the porsche 911.

  • LOL IT'S SPORTY!

  • @Rawrhisshalala

    haahahahaha LOL :))

  • z4 and s2000 are girl cars. boxter ftw

  • @jagzta123

    LOL ahhahahahah :))

  • @jagzta123 i agree wiht the z4, but drive an s2k. then you'll know.

  • @TJtheS2000fan ye i dont mind s2000's. but they are generally reffered to as girl cars.

  • @jagzta123

    by idiots.......

    you must be 16

  • @jagzta123 if you dont buy a car because 16 year olds think its a "girl car" you are a moron.

  • @Brotherolaf everyone knows they are girl cars. you must be a girl if you fancy the z4 or the s2000. or why dont u go drive the old audi TT which is a car for homosexuals like you.

  • S2000 a girls car?!! There a very very few girls who enjoy reving to 8900rpm in a car with a minimalist approach to driving.

  • @jagzta123 and why does that matter? I see more guys driving the s2k than i see girls. It isnt a girl car, just those chicks have good taste. haha

  • @TJtheS2000fan then all those guys must be queers

  • @jagzta123 i disagree. if you drive american you are a queer

  • @TJtheS2000fan LOL i see more girls driving a Miata!

  • @Speed1ve not a bad car either

  • Totaly agree, I have an S2K, and I've seen once in my life a girl driving one, and she was tight so that's perfect to me... And besides I rather choose Honda girl than Porscha Girls... Like the cars, japanese over germans...

  • @spidermath005 It's spelled Porsche

  • No really ???

  • I don't get why Richard is mocking the Boxster because it is "a poor man's 911" Yes but you can also say that a 911 is a poor man's Carrera GT, and that a Carrera GT is a poor man's Pagani Zonda F roadster. Why is it a shame to have a Boxster? yes if you could you would probably have bought a 911, but it is still a very good car, with a superb chassis, and it is significantly lighter then a 911. And it has the engine in the right place, the middle.

  • the bmw is the best car in the word

    

  • turn the subtitles on at 4:43 its hilarious

  • Only if they had still made NSX's....the only reliable supercar lol!

  • @bcatz454

    i love these 3 cars,but more than NSX i love the new honda HSV 010 GT .......a real monstercar

  • i want the f20c engine from the s2k in my civic that would be sick

  • Its SPORTY! Sporty!

  • "Sportie that's Sportie" Jeremy is classic.

  • I made a poem which goes like this:

    "S2K anyday"

  • too bad they discontinued this awesome s2000

  • LOOOOOOOOOOOOOSEEEEERRRR!!!!

  • i think everybodys must die with all car/motorcicle/airpolane or just walking.....can die old time and u really never lived....the important thing u never be idiot and leave the life at the innocent....

    (im sorry again for my englitalian :)))

  • def the s2k because its way cheaper and its a honda wich means you die with it

  • I love MY00!!! S2K FTW! (For The Win!!!)

  • He trashed hyundai at 2:25. Just threw them in the garbage. It was awesome

  • Honda S2K... "Power of Dream" Indeed they last to long, which is a PLUS in this world.

  • I'm sorry... it's all about preferrance. I love all three cars. I personally own a Z4 and love it! You know why? Cause it's low to the ground, the interior looks very nice, the exterior is remarkable and the engine sounds like a ninja creaping up on you.

    If you are gonna do a comparison between fast and nice cars, throw the G35 Infiniti in there. There's no competition with that car. You know why? Cause it has EVERYTHING. Luxury, speed, performance and look.

    That's my two cents

  • @christopherjonvoight i understand what u think......

    i have drive a Z4 of my friend and r so.......i cant explain....

    porsche r good,nobody cant tell is not......but i preffer Honda and u know why?

    Honda make dream for me,im not rich,im a navy soldier,but with a Honda i can dream,with Honda i have a jewels and not everybody know the real entity of Honda......

  • "Cuz Hey! Its SPORTY, Thats Sporty, got No suspension its SPORTY!" hahahahaa That was Fucking Hilarious hahaha =) S2000 all day

  • @Doberman847 LOL he did sound so american too

  • @TheKatoom man 7;04 kills me everytime hahahha

  • S2000 for me,

  • I'm normally biased against Hondas, this would be the point where I'd interject something about the Nissan 370Z, but the S2000 is in one word, sexy.

    SEXY.

  • I reckon the s2k is the best deal out of all these. HOWEVER the new twin turbo Z4 would blow its doors off

  • @AlexanderBlueAvenue That isn't saying much, seeing as the S2000 has been discontinued. that said, one can purchase a used S2000 from 2005-2009 for a very reasonable price. The Z4 is in a different class altogether. It is an upscale sports car to the S2000's affordable racer.

  • @AlexanderBlueAvenue however, i saw a persons s2000 with twin turbo chargers and intercooler installed, new engine headers, new exhaust headers and a nice haltech ecu system. i think it had a new transmission too. This installed costs way less than the cruddy bmw and the s2000 ran 10.5 sec quatermile. bet a gay bmw couldnt do that....

  • Hondas & toyota ARE fucking gay. TOTALY FUCKING GAY

  • @rikisaltacorp yeah lets not have an intelligent conversation about build quality. hoNda is TeH gAy! bMwx is teh RoxOr!

  • In response to Richard's Boxster "it's cheaper" comment, while it's true that it's cheaper, I've heard some drivers claim the drivability is easier. So, thus, the Boxster performs better than the 911 at a cheaper price which is why the 911 should be PHASED out while the Boxster/Cayman should be PROPED up to replace it.

  • s2000 has a huge engine but less sound!

    actually

    NO!

    it

    is

    VVVVERY NOISY!!! BCUZ I HAV 1 2!

  • @NONAM3ify lol a 2 liter is def. not a big engine...

  • sporty! lol

  • DONT BELIVE THE GERMANS :D:D:D

    

  • I normally prefer more expensive cars from more upscale companies, but I have to agree with Jeremy here. Honda has proved that a 4-cylinder engine can be more powerful than the 6-cylinder engines in comparable sports cars (much in the same way Porsche has done with its 450 hp flat 6 from the GT3 RS). Factor in the cost savings and infallible reliability, and Honda has an easy win. I only wish they still built the S2000 (or a modern replacement).

  • I like his american accent heh heh heh.

  • when a car only comes with a manual transmission you know it's something special. Unlike chick cars like the boxster and z4 where the majority of the drivers opt for the automatic version

  • i cant stop to view this video.....

    4 me these 3 cars r the best spider ever,but Honda is the HONDA and who really know the perfectly in a motor buy a Honda.....

    but respect for BMW and Porsche too

  • 5,000 pounds is about 7,500 is US dollars. Thats how much cheaper the s2000 is than the Porsche with those $7,500 you can modify it to be even faster.

  • the z4 sure looks like your compensation... I don't need to say it.

  • I love the S2000 because its cheap its very reliable you don't get charged an arm and a leg when something breaks down like on a porsche or a BMW a lot of people would argue with me but im personally a honda fan but the way you look at it the S2000 comes out on top
