Default Whats a good trailer for an s2000

So I'm looking for a good reliable trailer to put my s2000 on and tow behind a truck (4000lb towing capacity). What has worked well for people in the past?

Also, is there any other thing I need to consider?

If your truck only has a 4000lb tow capactity, you probably won't be able to tow an S2000 with it. The S2000 weighs 2800+ already. So you need to find around an 1100lb trailer that is still big enough to fit a car - Which is going to be very expensive because to get anywhere near that light, it will need to be made of aluminum and other more exotic lightweight materials. And even then you are really going to be right at 4000lbs, pushing the limits of the drivetrain and brakes of your tow vehicle.

P.S. you might want to post in the RR/AutoX forum too. Some of those guys do a lot of towing.
