where it was on topic and i guess, thanks for the extra hostility which
added a bit of humor.

Honda started with the S360 then to S500, S600, and S800 one of them actually had a 10,000 RPM redlline, they all had anywhere from 33, 57, or 70 hp what does this tell you? Motorcycle engine! And as you know those bad boys can hit 16,000 RPMS maybe more.....so technically our S2000 is one of the first(only cause I can't verify any other vehicles) with a conventional car engine....

check the pic to the bottom right on this sight:

The original S was really small! A local dealer has one mounted on a wall.

Park it next to an MG, Datsun Fairlady, TR4/5/250, Austin Healy and it would fit right in.

well, after much review and consultation...i traded the '02 berlina in for
the '05 suzuka. it does drive a lot softer than the '02. i guess i wll get used to that. i do like the smell of a new car! damn shame they come with payments (at least for me they do!).

thanks to all of you who added their 2 cents.
