Ferrari 360 has a 3.6L engine and it revs to 11K (2K more than the S2000). Not only that but it's a V8.

If you take it to an extreme, look at the F1 engines - they rev to 18K so we still have a fair way to go :-)

 

Thanks for the idea guys. I welded an extra cylinder bank onto the engine in my car, and made a 480 hp S4000! Check it out!

Hey, CoralDoc --- thanks for bringing up my work, but don't take credit for it!!!!

 

Honda never takes the easy way out, period.

Would anyone else in the world have even considered going against porsche with a 4?

 

Oops! I had no idea who the author of this fine photoshop image was. I shamelessly copied it a long time ago and thought it would be amusing to bring it up now. Post amended.

 

Truth of the matter, I'd prefer the little 2.6L 900HP V-8 that runs on alcohol that Honda's had out for quite some time now!

 

I think you should just buy a firebird or a camero...or save up for a Corvette!! You obviously don't understand the philosophy behind the Honda S2000.

 

Those cars cost how much? Honda wasn't trying to make a complete world-class supercar in the S2000.

 

I still say... 2 more cylinders(inline 6), move the battery to the back, 360hp n.a., would be cool.

 

It would also be out of the price range of many, many buyers.
