I've heard so many things about the car being too small, and i'm 6 2', but Chris is a pretty big guy and he didn't seem to have any problem with it. Should I still consider it as an option? Im comparing to 350z convertible.
Im looking to purchase one of these cars but none has come up for sale in my area so I can't take one for a ride I'm curious how well I would fit if at all? I'm 6 foot 2 about 310lbs i fit in a mini Cooper s perfectly Wonder if it's the same?
@Talkshitgethit69 That would be a tight squeeze my man... I own a '05 S2K, I'm 5'9" and I feel like it fits my perfectly... My younger brother who is an inch taller than you but only around 235 lbs and he BARELY fits in my car with the top up, with minimal leg room. The S2K is definitely a squeeze for larger people but if it's tolerable you will forget all about being comfortable once you start driving! :-)
Bought my 2002 off the showroom floor from David Hobbs Honda in Milwaukee December of 2001. It will be 10 this year. It's got 13k on it (never been out in bad weather)...the 1st time I drove a used one I felt like Wil Smith in Independence Day.....YEE HA!...I have to get me one of these.....
what year model of the honda s2000 is common to get? I really want to get an S2000, but i heard its really hard to get one. What year model should i aim for?
@beavass You're a fag, this guy (Chris) is THE man! I would totally buy a car from him. I know he's the kind of guy that would honor anything he says and If there was a problem, he'd make it right. He's the kind of guy you WANT to run into when buying a used car.

I'm glad you guys made this video. This car rocks (I'm with you, this car in black is sexy), but then It's very hard to find a video that explains how good the S2000 is and why it's worth having.
Dude the hour you put into making these videos probably gets all the people who go to that dealer to request you, genius. bet you get alot of sales from these reviews
My brother had a 2004 Honda S2000. He didn't make payments to it got repossessed. The car is quite powerful for a small 2.0 liter. I was hitting 120 on the Highway smashing gears. Manual Power. I could feel the metal from his Teins smashing underneath the car.
Is it just me or do people put too much emphasis on the Vtec system. Don't all cars have literally the same if not very similar variable valve systems?
unbeliveable...i have abeautiful 2005 with 12,000 miles on it excellent condition and i love it sooo much that it makes me want to buy another one....(i think i might)
i thought the flip up radio cover was to keep out moisture not to keep u from being distracted my friend has a delsol and his also has that type of cover.
I look at this video over, and over again. Not only because Chris does the best reviews, but because I love this car so much and cant wait for the day I buy my 2009.
@AcousticAdobo no....a 2 seater as a first car? Well how old are you is actually the question. You could be straight out of college but 80% of ppl tend to wreck their first cars.i recommend a nice 4 seater, or a jeep. Cant go wrong with a jeep lol
Weirdly, this is probably the best S2000 review I've ever seen, better than TopGear's Fifth Gear's and and the U.S shows too. Top job - my MX5 will be swapped for a 2004/5 S2000 soon : )
Good video, and obviously the car has ~25k miles on it...but that carfax report shows the odometer @ 40,532 (pause at 7:58). Autocheck shows it @ 25k.
Great catch! I actually bought this car from a Honda dealer that I've known for a long time...if you look at the CARFAX, you can see the 40K entry was done in their service department when this car went through it's certification...but they took care of it the day I bought it. Great catch, really....thanks for watching!
@chicagocarsdirect I know this is an old video and obviously this is pointless now but I'd thought I'd mention that 40532 Kilometres equals 25185 Miles which possibly explains those readings.
this car is phenomenal. i love driving it everyday(daily driver). i have been driving this car for over a year now and i still get excited when i get into it. you can also check out my video to see how much fun you can have with it.
i know you are driving to show the amazing vtec but at 5000miles the car hasnt even been broken in...and hes drives it right to the red line a few times just in the video.
The 2005 and up models dont have 240hp, they have 237hp. The tq in the 2005+ models is only up 9ft/lbs from the 2.0 model to 162 and isn't as fun as the older model with the 9k redline. As far as the car wanting to be driven hard, that is only the case if you beef up the bottum end, that is the weakest part of the car and it is extremely weak, As far as honda reliability the s2000 doesnt share a single part with any oher honda so you can't really go off that. Its a great car though.
I'd rather deal with a casually dressed salesman that is really knowledgeable about the stuff he's selling than one dressed nicely that knows nothing.

@MBML320 So if he dresses up how would that make a difference in his ability to review the car? That goes for anything.. when your displaying a product whether it be homes, cars or even candles, serious buyers who put money on the table want to be confronted with a man who has stature..
i think its because rather or not we buy the car.. someone else does.. and im pretty sure he makes money... assuming this is his business not someone elses.. he can dress however he wants.. he has money. =)
