yep sounds about right, the CR sucks.

 

Good review. Tony Swan knows what he's talking about... since he owns and races a S2000.

 

+1, he has experience with s2k's and knows what s2000s are capable of

 

A+ review, would read again

 

I don't understand. How can they compare two cars without testing both versions on the same day

 

[QUOTE=m3cosmos,Mar 14 2008, 08:15 PM] I don't understand.

 

dont hate, you guys at least have to admit that the suspension changes are noteworthy.

and is the author joking? 36k for a CR? dont they go for like much more in real life?

the problem i have with the CR is that they charge more than what i think its worth. if anything, the should be charging less, no leather, no softop/motor, nada.

my thoughts are that you can slap on these mods on a regular s2000 or you can spend the extra money you woulda spent on the CR on buying a turbo and making it exponentially faster... right?

 

This has been discussed before

The aero kit would not make any material difference in acceleration, particularly from 0-60. The editor must have been smoking crack to conclude that. Anyone would any logical sense would know 0-60 cannot be affected by a wing like that. Down the 1/4 mile strip? It probably might make a small diff of 0.1?

Nevertheless, straight line acceleration can't be compared between two days. Besides, the S2000 is known to be difficult to achieve good times ...

Anyway, better or worse track times? Then ya, if CR is worse, then CR sucks. But this guy is complaining 0-60 times. .. that's stupid

 

sounds like a good review to me, the CR is a joke. Honda really needs to up the HP of the car. Yes back in 99 240hp was something but comeone the ****ing civic has almost as much power as teh s2k now. But whats the point in complaining, Honda has made the S2k into a joke, there are several cars that can wax its ass in almost every comparison for the same or slightly more money. Sure Honda wants to keep the "sporty" spirit of the car but come one now, since when does "sporty" mean keeping the car almost the same for almost 10 years now

 

i think the engine is already maxed out as is...
