Yeah I get that "what kinda car is that?" too...

but in the grand scheme of things the S2000 is from a world renowned, mass production auto maker and it amazes me that tons of folks still havent a clue about it...

Lucky us
You have to realize that in 6 years of US production I believe there have been less than 60,000 units sold! That is a very small number.

The best is I pulled up behind a red S2k at McDonald's the other night. He had a Comptech license plate frame so I holler out the window, "that thing got a supercharger?". He kinda turns his head and says "It revs to 9000 rpm so it doesn't need one." I thought to myself, what a goober, no kidding, mine does too. Then it got better. He looked in the rear view and saw that I was driving an S2000. He asked me if I'd ever done any track days with it. He then proceeded to tell me about a racetrack in Kershaw, SC, that was kinda like Road "Atlantic".

It's like Kaluha, "the everyday exotic". We get the best of both worlds, Honda price and reliability with exotic looks and performance. What more could you want?

Yep...
I never get tired of looking at mine, or spotting them out on the roads, or whooping into dealerships afterhours and just staring at their beauty...
