Although we are not a dedicated video gaming site, we are certainly fans of racing games and with anything that involves the Honda S2000. With the official release date of the most anticipated and longest ever developed car racing simulator, Gran Turismo 5, finally solidified, we also finally saw the final car list for the [...]

On the heels of ralper‘s “motoring” story, we bring you this write-up from tomcatt, whose memory still lingers within our community. Inspired by ralper‘s post, tomcatt wrote about a brief fling in his S2000 during lunch hour. I’m sure several of us have at some point or another done something similar to feel rejuvenated, especially [...]

To some, motoring is a concept associated with the Mini, after all they ran a big campaign claiming to be the epitome of “motoring” spirit. However, the concept of motoring is not something that any company, group or person can lay exclusive claim to. Motoring is all about a state of mind, an everyday experience [...]

We are pretty sure that the thought of how your S2000 and you are perceived by the general car-driving public, constantly plays on your mind. In your perception, does traffic make way for you or does it tend to obstruct you or tailgate you? This is the topic of a thread on our S2000 Talk [...]

While many people have S2000s daily drivers, a large number keep them as garage queens – in a stable with at least one other chariot to take them out and about. Considering what the S2000 is – mainly a sporty roadster that does happen to have space for two golf bags (its true, they will [...]

No matter how careful a driver may be, there is no silver bullet to avoid a road accident. There can be many reasons why an accident may occur. It could happen from obvious behavior like reckless driving, speeding, or running red lights, but even unforeseen conditions may create an accident, such as weather conditions, pedestrians, [...]

Parking the S2000 in a safe place is no doubt at the top of our minds. A garage at home is useful for keeping the car safe from the elements – natural and human. Parking the car in public though can be a challenge as the car now is fair game for all things that [...]

Some words speak louder than others. Some even have a voice of their own. What do you think of when you hear words like Chicane or Apex? What if I take it a step further and use names like Silverstone or Suzuka? How about Sebring or Nurburgring? To some of us, these words cause a [...]

Ever since Honda announced that production for the S2000 will end, there have been rumors about another coming. Some called it an AP3, yet others were looking forward eagerly to the arrival of the NSX. Rendered images flooded the internet and Honda too fueled the speculation with the OSM concept, and by starting to test [...]

Have you ever wondered to what extent the S2000 is hand built? Rumors have floated around that the interior was stitched together by experienced female Honda technicians, because they could do a better job than the men. All those rumors may now be put to rest. Understandably Honda (like any other manufacturer) has kept their [...]

When asked to describe the exhaust note on the S2000, some if not most of us would display a perplexed look or sarcastically say, “what exhaust note?”. Many of our members feel that the S2000 sounds better and truer to its nature if equipped with an after-market exhaust system from say ASM or Invidia or [...]

S2000 Talk has a thread calling for picture submissions for the 2011 calendar. S2KI has had calendars for the last two years and 2011 will be the third year in succession. Saki GT, one of our forum moderators is heading up this project and the calendars are expected to be on sale sometime during November [...]

This seems to be the question, and a good one at that being asked by our member King. He has started a poll on the S2000 talk forum designed to track age demographic data  for all people that currently own and drive an S2000. In his own words it is “Just a poll to see [...]

OK, I know that caught your eye, possibly even startled you or caused you to spit your coffee all over your keyboard. NO, Honda is not launching the S2000 in 2010. But, I want you to imagine this scenario – what if Honda launched the S2000 this year? I’m not talking about the CR or [...]

I set off on Sunday from Derby to catch the Eurotunnel around lunchtime, and got to the circuit for registry before 7:00 PM. Once I got into France, the sun came out, so it was top down, music up and sunglasses on. Excellent start. As I entered Belgium the car had that lovely silky feeling [...]
