    • @demetricklouis5710
      @demetricklouis5710 6 лет назад +1

      jdmnsxr 6, you should take your I own advice. Acura is another brand. It was created by Honda to sell upmarket products to North America. So while I could purchase a NSX in the states it would be badged as Acura not Honda. Unless you are a mechanic I am fairly certain that I know more about Hondas than you do. I own five. S2000, Civic, Ridgeline, CBR, and Trail Winder. That last one is a mountain, bike if you where wondering. So give give your fingers a rest and get back to guarding your bridge.

    I miss the S2000, but I think that it was necessary for it to go away. It was a halo car that Honda didn't really need and was basically its 50th birthday present to their customers. Its absence makes the fanbase want a new one even more. Want proof? Look at the response of people interested in a new Supra over a new 370Z.

    The S2000 didn't get it's name from having 2.0 liter engine my friend, it was named S2000 because Honda wanted to give it a special name to celebrate Honda's 50th ANNIVERSARY in the Automobile industry in the year 2000. At least that's what the guy that designed it and the NSX said.
    Think about it and you'll see why they don't call the AP2 S2200 mmm.

      @RevsALot 6 лет назад

      B. Son I'm not hating on the s2k I'm a Honda fanboy lol...just for what they go for now and the km id personally choose the 370z, but yah 350z would be more comparable and it's cheaper..id pick the s2k over a 350 though

    • @BSon-sj9uc
      @BSon-sj9uc 6 лет назад

      Revs Alot all good man. No problems here. Before I got my s2k I was looking at 370z myself. But I found one in great condition. 2004 with 27k miles and 1 owner. I still own it, been 3 years and now I track it.

      Mario Ayala easy. True sprinter edition was the shit. Then the car turned into a family car and Toyota tried to make money off the frs by renaming it the 86 because they knew idiot fan boys would buy it. The end.

    If they're going to launch a new S car (wich I don't think they will) i'd like for it to be like this:
    Name: S3500
    Engine: Same 3.5L V6 used in the NSX but without all that hybrid stuff
    Power: Around 350 to 400 hp should suffice
    Competitors: Maybe the Porsche 718 Boxster since it's also a roadster
    I'd like to know what you think about this idea, I don't think that is going to happen any time soon but I can still dream

    • @vaajchang
      @vaajchang 6 лет назад

      Starfire Storm in that event, it's unlikely. Honda has bailed out of sport cars and just recently came back with the civic type r. With a successor to the s2000, I think Honda should not make one without enough engineering finesse.
