Honda S2000 consumer car reviews

Honda S2000 GT 2006

5 star review

If, two years ago, you had asked me what my best ever purchase was I would have waxed lyrical about my superb espresso machine. The delicious blends, the excellent crema, the wonderful aromas but most importantly, its magnificent ability to wake me up in the morning. However, two years ago I made what is now the best purchase of my life; forget caffeine, all you need to wake yourself up in the morning is a Honda S2000! The S2000 looks sleek, sexy and sophisticated and that is because it is. The feeling as you slip into the cockpit is of a snug rocket ship, which is in fact, what it is. The acceleration is electric and as you zoom past 6000 rpm and the VTEC kicks in, the feeling is like being shot in the groin with a taser, if that is a brilliant feeling? The S2000 is responsive and exhilarating in every one of its gears and feels as though you are glued to the road at all times. There is hardly any roll in the corners and at every point it feels composed and secure. I have really pushed the boundaries in this car and I have never been disappointed. As for the practicality, one has to remember it is a sports car; lets face it, it won’t be much help when you are moving house. Also, if you are planning to go on holiday, it had better be to a naturist retreat where you won’t require clothes, because any more than a small case will be a struggle. But before I make it sound like the boot space is non-existent, golf fans, you will be pleased to hear that your clubs will fit! If I were to leave you with one thought it would be this: I still smile when I drive it, I still stare at it as I walk to and from it in the carpark, and I still miss it when I am not driving it. As I said, the S2000 is the best purchase of my life.

5 star review

I haven’t stopped smiling since I got it. It makes a fantastic noise when revved passed 6000 rpm and goes like hell in in first 4 gears. After that you’ve usually run out of road!! 12 months old & I haven’t had a spanner on it, no rattles or loose trim. Low 30’s possible when driven normally on A roads, 28 when pushed, which is acceptable. Everyone should own one once. Its the best fun outside the bedroom you will ever have.

4 star review

This is just the most fun to drive and gives a very smooth and comfortable drive around town, but when on the open road it really comes into its own, which lets face it is the reason you buy a sportscar. This little beauty can shift and then some!! I’ve previously owned a Mazda MX-5 but this car has more guts to it and a little more style. If you need to ask about fuel consumption though don’t even look at one!

5 star review

This is an amazing little car when you consider what you’re getting for the money and it really can go. Fabulous fun to drive and not as bad on fuel as I expected (mid 20’s) but make sure you keep your eye on the oil. An understated little belter of a car, that is as reliable as it is fast!
