Yep, according to the SSM Test Driver.

Sorry Dave, maybe you can get your money back?

That guy really tore it up! Looks like fun.

Donno what the SSM was like, aside from it having 25% more cylinders then your cars do, but Im not going to take your bait.

Besides, put a good driver in a 20 year old corolla with bald snow tires and he/she's cleaning all of our clocks around any circuit.

All this talk of what is faster then what is so trivial when you look at really super fast cars, like this one:

It never mentions if it is the 5 cyl or not, acceleration doesn't look that much different than an S2k. He says it's "called the SSM" right now, but that body looks more like an S2000 than the original SSM concept. So I wonder.

Maybe it was too fast so they dumbed it down to not out run an NSX...... we'll never know.

But man can he drive.

I think when the S2000 went into production, it gained a lot of weight.

Cant remember that far back to my vtec.net days.
