Yes 1 and 1/2 now lol.
And why? Because if im not mistaken this section is "street encounters". Not "autox kills" or "track murder". Its a section devoted to straight line racing or stoplight to stoplight. The s2000 in a straight line drag situation isnt exactly the best of situations. In stock form the car is slow without doing possible major damage to the drivetrain.
0-60 in what 5.5 seconds? Dumping the clutch where at 7k+ shocking the holy hell out of rearend risking failure.
Wheres the heresay? Whats your s run stock? Unless its some magical ride its the same as everyone elses. And to me 13.8 for a sports car is slow and most people run slower than that even in their s2k stock. Be it made by honda, nissan, chevy, whatever a 14 second car isnt cutting it.
On an actual road course, thats a diferent conversation.
Your own sig says 2jz swaped with a ford rearend lmfao..... Wonder why...

you must be shitting me.
the Genesis feels nothing like a well built car, and the s2000 does.
a 3.8L V6 vs a 2.0L n/a........ hm
that's almost double the displacement ! that's pretty sad if you ask me..

Weight and gearing. I wouldnt ever buy a crooked h either way lol. But hes right with honda losing ground. The new si's keep getting more hp and better trans/lsd but also keep piling on the pounds 
The nsx went the way of displacement and isnt it a hybrid?

NSX isn't a hybrid engine, electric motors only control the front wheels of the all-wheel drive system. The gas powered motor still controls the rear wheels...and its expensive technology resulting in expensive car

And the resulting weight is what? They completely threwout the lightweight nimble setup that made that car what it was to begin with.....
And its their only thing moving atleast forwardish. Everything else is stationary or going backwards.

I trust Honda knows what they're doing, especially when big money is in play
