well he does say some good things... but saying the cabin is small well it is on the small side but he must be 6'4 and like 250-300lbs yea...that would be uncumfortable. and the extra weight must add to the hard to drive under 3k rpms.
the interior is far superior to any american car with cheap plastics... anyway thats only one fat mans opinion...
and this is only one skinny japanese mans comments

He lists a mix of AP1 and AP2 specs in his review. As for the rest of it, a bit over the top...the interior would certainly not be at home in any generation of Corolla, let alone a 78'

Also my soft top latches have never rattled...ever...maybe he forgot to clip them back in place. He does sound like an obese man, perhaps that explains his complaint for lack of space, the switchgear (not for fat fingers perhaps), and the 14.8 1/4 mile

Worst Mag reviewer of all time Robert Farago.

Ok, I couldn't resist. Here's a repost of my special Bios of the writers After all, I worked so hard on them


Hi, I'm Bob Elton. I have a little penis and am scared to drive on the interstate. I usually go the speed limit in the left lane because I'm doing everyone a service by slowing the speeders down. Accidents are caused by people that have to think while driving so I usually just blank out and pull out into traffic. My automatic keeps me safe. Moving my feet around is confusing so I usually carry my hoveround with me.

I like plants too. My boyfriend thinks eating plants is inhumane. I'm all about capital punishment for loggers.




Hi, I'm Chris Paukert. My penis is smaller than Bob's, but my boyfriend likes it anyway (well he did, but he left me for Bob). I have no idea what this thing is I'm sitting on, but it looks confusing with this steering stick in front and wheels and all. I'm pretty sure you have to move your feet to make this thing go so it's very confusing. I also don't see any cupholders or vanity mirror. I doubt Dodge would sell any of these if it was ever made.




Hi, I'm Robert Farago. My last boyfriend drove an S2000 so I hate his guts and yours. I think my Kia is the best. I have lots of room and it's not so confusing. Plus I think 17" wheels are overboard anyway. I like my 13" just fine. When I drove the S, I was scared to take it past 5k rpms so I just shifted between the 3 and 4 like you're suppose to. High RPM's are stupid anyway, just like the manual transmission.

C'mon folks, grow up. Life is full of critics and their gripes, stop taking it so personally. The s2k is not perfect, nor is any car. Each has its shortcomings. The guy has a right to his opinion, right or wrong. We're talking the eye of the beholder, here. I agreed with a few of the things he said. I knew that going in, but I still bought the car. And, I still think it's a GREAT car. That's all that matters. Life is too short...
