How much heavier would the front end be?

Doesn't the S2000 have lightning quick reflexes because of the light front end and the fact that the engine weighs so little?

If they can keep the weight under 3000 than that's a cool project.

They would lose the slick tranny though...I'm not a fan of the manual tranny in the V6 Accord.

Anyways too little too late.

I think the weight difference between the F22 and the J series is around 120 pounds. It's a lot but HPD knows how to build functional one-off cars.

Why go through all this hassle when you could just buy a Z4M with similar numbers, better gearing, and a better interior?

I don't know what the excitement is about...? Seems like it makes good power and it's SH-AWD.. okay...

The reason I got my s2k.

1. It's a fun RWD
2. High RPM
3. Good balance

This s2k got none of those. What exactly is the point seriously? Just get another car like Z, or people just want the look of S2000...? lol

Johnny Tran would paint it black, throw some NOS in it and be at Race Wars.
Maybe that's where the $100 grand under his hood went to. Must be a lot of labor fees.

C'mon guys if Honda did want to build this I'm sure they'd spend more than a day or two to TUNE the suspension, amongst other things, for it!
