Seems to be a lot of pictures of winding mountain roads with S2000s in the cabbage patch... perhaps this has less to do with the car, and more to do with the type of people driving?
Well you sure as hell don't buy an S to drive it like a minivan now do you?
On a public road, yes, yes I do drive it like a minivan.

I don't get the hyperbole in the beginning with deadliness and all that. If you read through the accident threads, 90% of the drivers walked away from those crashes, many with no injury at all.

I would change that crap to something like the S2000 will bite you in the ass if you don't respect it, but other than that, well... the music isn't good either.

Change the intro, change the music.

That's almost enough to make you switch to an SUV.

Very sad video indeed. The one thing absolute amazing though about this car, is that in some of those extreme mangled accidents, how safe the driver and passenger seem to stay. In all of it's associated risk, it sure seems to do a helluva job at protecting its occupents as much as possible.
