Default S2000 is for 'real' men

This week in the Dutch AutoWeek (comparing the S2K to the Z350)

Verdict: a real man chooses the Honda S2000. Raw, brutisch and without pretensions. Already starting to achieve classic status.

Do you agree?

PS: of course also for real women!

Hi,

I just saw an test in a German magazine, I forgot which one, between the Z4, 350Z, S2000 and some un interesting american roadster, seriously I can't even remember which one :-)

Here the S2000, of cause got last place. But with the same remarks, that if you were looking for a driving machine you should go for the S2000. The S2000 only won in categories like gearbox and driving thrills.

since it's the oldest car - smallest production, it's had less development than the others.. so I would expect nothing less from the press.

The same result for the last test in the german "Sport Auto" S2000 vs. Z4 vs. Boxster S

Although the boxster was the fastetst in handling by far!

the driver in the s2000 didn't even know how to open the softtop fully

and 0-100 in 6,8 I think he is used to drive an automatic gearbox
