I've always enjoy driving the S2000. It's one of the best feeling when you hit a turn and then exiting full throttle to hear the engine growl

It's nice and the photos are excellent, but I've seen way too many Hondas with the white/black theme.

While a lot of money is dumped into this car, I don't agree with the styling. Boxy bumpers/sideskirts on a non-boxy car just doesn't flow right in my eyes. I've always been on the conservative side leaning more towards the oem look though. I've seen nicer S2000s IMO.

Beautiful photography and interior. But the paint job (the black lines) is overdoing it. I love the s2k though, especially before the facelift. Man that engine sings! (#3 on my list of "Best sounding engines")

Too much rice. I would take a stock S2000 over this in a heartbeat.

usually when I think of 'rice' I think of some gaudy, unecessary, useless mods that look cheesy.

There is not one item on this s2k that meets such criteria. Everything flows and is tastefully and professionally, done. The red, white, and black theme is carried off superbly (even in the background of the pictures with the red piping). Seeing all the mods on this monster, it could run circles around a stock s2k. Actually, I would LOVE to see the times on this baby, as I have no clue what limits it could have (the third fastest car in the world has a modded civic engine after all)

Although I think the S2000 is over the top, the pictures are PERFECT. Great attention to detail and perfect engine shots. Man, what beautiful picture.
