Big deal.....S2000 is a love or hate it type of car. That's fine with me -- my previous car was universally praised and I thought it was boring as hell.

Farago is spot on with his review. I highly recommend he go buy a Chrysler Sebring convertible. It seems to be more his style.

this clown is entitled to his opinion,what is hard to accept is that he is being paid for it and we can imagine it carries some weight since it is on a website...

i cannot believe that he is writing about the same car I own...i remember the first time i drove one and i was in absolute awe...i read it has not low end torque, it had snap oversteer, the styling was bland, etc....and by chance i had the opportunity to drive a 2002 car...i was amazed in every way and knew right then and there i had to have one...it took two years plus of waiting and i did...i drove another couple of them and chose the 2004 (updated model) without even driving a 2004 model, based on how good the 2003 was that i drove a couple of months before.

i can agree on the crappy stereo, that's it...no excuse for that in a 32,000 car...and the controls could be better for music search...but there is so much more to the car than the stereo...this guy really missed the boat...perhaps he was expecting a z4 or audi tt experience.

I felt the same way you did while reading his reveiw. I could not beleive he was talking about the s2000. Ohh well everyone has their own opinion, but I have come to the conclusion that this is not the kind of guy you'll see driving around in a sports car of his own.

In some kind of way, I understand him.

The point is that there is some things about we don't care but he does.

He don't like the sound. Ok. I do. Nevermind.

He don't like the stereo. Ok. Everybody is with him.

He don't like the interior at all. Well, we must admit, this is not a luxury saloon and mine have a 'crric' near the right airbag.

Compared with the 911 Carrera's 231CV boxer six, his words about the engine do dave some kind of sense. Yes, but I like the engine to be that way.

Maybe he's usign some hard words or expressions, but the basic argumentation can be valid.


I love this car.
