The S2000 needs to be updated. Preferably with power heated seats, a 5 speed auto, vanity mirrors on both sides, dvd navi, and auto parking.

That would be sweet.
Would you like an optional reclining sofa, 30" plasma, 20" chrome Giovanni wheels (iron-based, of course), and the deluxe motorized 'reach around' button for those extra long roadtrips?
Yep! You get it!

I know this is unrelated but, a couple seasons they'd show her ass, which was ballooning. Then starting a couple seasons ago they won't show any film with her ass in it. I found it amusing.

Since it's the same driver, I consider the test fair. That Morono (sic) was a special one off cost no object project though. No existing one would do nearly as well.

Viki owns a suzuka s2k. You can see it parked in the background in a few episodes.

Edit: looks like she bought another one.

Thank you.

To the above post: get use to it. Until Honda gives this car some more power and torque, MANY cars (and types of vehicles) will be catching and passing it.

The SRT8 Jeep is just as quick as the S now.
I don't know about you, but I see "MANY cars (and types of vehicles)" ahead of me, then I see them in again...my rear view mirror

One second on a racetrack is along time. 2.79 seconds behind is about 250ft at 60mph (football field is 300ft).

I don't know about you, but I'd rather drive an S than a Nissan Moron-o any day of the week.

I'm pretty sure a Porsche Cayenne Turbo S would be able to keep up with my S too, almost the same story for let's say a 535d for example. But do they produce the same grin on the face?

The S does need some sort of upgrade in the power department. I mean, how difficult could a small V-6 or forced induction from the factory be. Cars with more low end seem easier to drive fast, to me. I still like my 9k redline though.
