The S2000 CR will be available as an entirely new S2000 trim level when it goes on sale in the fall of 2007. The lighter, stiffer and more aggressive overall design is engineered to maximize the S2000's potential on a racetrack with the goal of substantially-improving track times, chassis balance and feel. The factory-tuned roadster provides highly-aggressive suspension settings, increased body and chassis rigidity, overall weight reduction and an aerodynamic body kit dialed-in for reduced lift. An aluminum hardtop replaces the convertible soft top as standard equipment.

Widely considered the quintessential roadster-style sports car, the S2000 is the performance icon for the Honda brand and combines uncompromising racetrack-ready performance with everyday usability. The S2000 rewards driving enthusiasts with a potent 2.2-liter, 16-valve DOHC VTEC� 4-cylinder engine and a precise, short throw 6-speed manual transmission, along with tenacious handling and a perfect 50/50 weight balance.

The renowned high-revving engine delivers 237 horsepower at 7,800 rpm and 162 lb-ft. of torque at 6,800 rpm. Perfectly complimenting the engine's output characteristics is a compact, longitudinally-mounted, close-ratio 6-speed manual transmission that features a direct linkage for precise shifting and quick throws. Combined with a front and rear double wishbone suspension, precise electric power steering, and a torque-sensing limited slip differential, the end result is a complete, no compromise, performance package for the enthusiast driver.


I like the first yellow one personally.
Discuss?

[manilikecars]

i thought you could only get them in blue

[Revmaynard]

Apparently not....lol.

[MistaCee]

Nice but ride height is really high.

[DieselNuts]

so, whats different besides the ricer lip, ricer spoiler, wheels and solstice style soft top cover?

[kyx]

that lip is hideous

[thepolecat]

ricey, but Im sure the CR has that stuff for a reason. RIGHT!?

[R3RUN]

ricey, but Im sure the CR has that stuff for a reason. RIGHT!?
Lol, its a N/A honda, its not fast enough to really need it. Besides the wing, lip, and the fact that it sits higher than my grandmothers Expedition, I like it. Soooo really I'll just take a regular s2k.




oh and the wheels are terrible. Did they steal them off a rental car?

One we got into the state of Florida, the car that we saw the most was the S2000 lol.....I don't think I've ever seen that many before.

A lot of them had what looks like that wing, but at highway speeds going the opposite direction, I can't tell you if it was the CR or whatever....

[R3RUN]

Probably not, they have the smaller wing thats a factory option. I really don't see that many in Tampa but thats because I live in the ghetto. All I see is donks and all I hear at night is gunfire in my apartment complex. lol.

[bowdown201]

I think I read somewhere that the CR's are just basically exactly the same as a base model except for suspension differances. Either way id stick with an 02 S2000

Gunfire isn't reason enough for you to move? LOL..


Anyway, I have been a fan of the s2k since its inception BUT this newest version is garbage......That wing needs to go...

[santacruz77]

the fools runnin a honda 2000

[black95se]

i thought you could only get them in blue

there is a black one at the dealer here in town. it looks 10 times better then the blue and yellow


bowdown201I think I read somewhere that the CR's are just basically exactly the same as a base model except for suspension differances. Either way id stick with an 02 S2000

i belive they do not come with a/c or a radio!

[MistaCee]

Its basically a track ready s2000 then

[takume]

Its basically a track ready s2000 then

i think so, but its just ugly. I agree with all the other to stick with the regular s2k.

[ash7]

mannnn

there goes honda again... screwing up yet another one of their finest cars. *sigh*

First it was the prelude, then the civic, now the s2000. :no:

R3Run was strapped with gats when you were cuddling with a Cabbage Patch.

Reps to who knows what that's from.

-jonathan

It's either they do it at the factory, or they let the third owner desecrate them by taking fuel efficient family cars and turning them into "race" cars.

And by race car I mean they make a lot of noise from "breathing" mods like three inch exhaust....but to free up power you have to first have power to free up.

[bigdare23]

in this case honda decided function >>> looks

THE CIVIC WAS ONE OF THIER FINEST CARS? LOL

IT IS BASICALLY BUILT TO BE A AUTOCROSS CAR, THATS THE MAIN DIFFERENCE THE WAY THE SUSPENSION, ETC IS DONE FOR THIS MODEL

[MongolPup]

BRETT, IS TYPING IN CAPS YOUR EQUIVALENT OF YOUR HEARING AID FOR THE COMPUTER?

LMAO, NAH I AM WORKING ON EXCEL AND NEED IT IN CAPS :tongue1:

[Tree]

damn i want one!!

[Brett]

So go buy one, they are only 35k

[Evil Goat]

well there goes 7 years of wanting an s2k right down the drain....

[pali_meister]

not feelin' the lip and spoiler.

[R3RUN]

Lol, nope. It's just people ****ing around. No one has been shot and it stays mostly on the other side of the complex. Me and a few friends are in the process of looking for a house though.

[1000cckiller]

[TonyRSX]

im a really big fan of the s2ks...been wanting one for a longgg time now...but the CR...WTF...ugly a$$ lip and the spoiler doesn't do it for me...stock 04-07 wheels > CR wheels...

i think ill stick to the regular 04+ s2ks

[IndianStig]

what did they do to the prelude? :thinking:


Prelude SH=GARBAGE, well it was a great car, just different then the base are which performed better.

Civic Si :thinking:

S2k CR :gay:

[cooleyfresh]

it look just like the basic model that came out in 2000... lol!!!! except for its gay rims and truck suspension....lol!!!

[admedlin]

anybody have any pics of the interior? it has no ac, no radio, right? I'd drive it :)

[01SpectraGSX]

I don't mind it but I agree with a lot of you. I would just buy a normal S2000 and if I choose to race it then I ll add SOME of that stuff. Prolly just the body kit or one like it.

hrmmm... i really like the sh preludes. looks pretty good. whats wrong with their atts?

the new civic si? i also personally like them as well but there is still nothin like the old skool civic. ill agree on that

the s2k cr looks like sh!t and that is all.

[Marta Mike]

So no one cares about function over form anymore? Every lip and spoiler you see on the car has been tested to be aerodynamically beneficial. Every bit of suspension touched was beneficial. All they way down to the tires. The car was not built to be an autox car. But more so a track car. Those aero enhancements aren gonna do much for you on an autox course. But dont get me wrong the car is ugly as ****. Its jacked, the wheels are ugly, that cover looks really gay, and the spoilers and wings...........eh it sucks. Unfortunately honda went the wrong direction on this one. They took a home run hit, and fouled it. Ya its ugly but it is functional to say the least. They would have made a killing if it were lowered and without the stupid lip kit. Something tells me you will see lots of these.........setup just like that.

The ATTS is a PITA once you reach 250BHP, for that it is widely ridiculed. I like the ATTS though, it lets the back end be happy on track days.


The new Si is pretty fun i'll agree, nice lil car but nothing better then a 97 Ek with a boosted type R in it!

CR=BS, i'll take an 06 White sitting on silver/gold BBS LM's

There you go.

[redpanda]

**** that **** for 40k..

[odie22]

what the crap were they smoking? i would buy the old s2000 b4 i would get this one

[josh green]

lol, crack all you want on the CR, but was 3 second faster than the AP2 and the AP1 on their test track. FUNCTION>FORM.

Honda killed the prelude when the 4th gen (aka accord coupe) came out. 3rd gen and 5th gen FTW.

[BTLFED]

Exactly. I'd drive it.

:yes:

[Axix23]

i don't like how they didn't beef up the s2k's motor with the cr edition kinda like what they did with the mugen civic si 4dr....

[Zhu]

Hate the blue Love the Yellow... you posted the two spoon colors XD!

[josh green]

i don't like how they didn't beef up the s2k's motor with the cr edition kinda like what they did with the mugen civic si 4dr....
The only cars that honda does motor changes to are the Type R's. Do you not realize that 240hp NA in a car thats sold to the public is a lot. Think about it, they have to build the motor for any jackass to drive. Thats like having a 420hp 350z for the s2k's hp/litre.

[gen2freak]

s2k for the win!
