It (installing tow hitches) has definitely been done by quite a few owners. Some S2000 owners like to bring track tires with them to venues and so they do tow hitches/bars and pull a very small trailer. Please do a search and you will find what you need.

Towing an entire car with an S2000 sounds like a terrible idea.

Ask this question in the R&C sub-forum. Many of them tow little tire trailers to the track/autox course. Several brands exist, my favorite being the Chase Race style because you can quickly disconnect the majority of the hitch system when you arrive at the track.

Why terrible idea ?

Im getting an 99-01 soon & want to be able to tow my 2 motorcycles (Honda´s ofcourse) after the car.
I know thére is an US based Company that makes the towhook. so I´ll be getting one from there

Happy easter / Kristian

It's your car (whenever you get it). Do what you want. The S2000 was not designed to tow a full size car on a trailer behind it.

Best wishes!

Like I said, you can definitely do whatever you want. It's your car (or will be when you get one). You want to tow motorcycles, a car, a motorhome... it's all your option.

Definitely take the advice of the other poster who suggested you post your query in the Racing & Competition section since some of those owners have definitely added tow hooks for purposes of hauling tires and toolkits on small trailers.
