    Why did you shift yours so fast dillon ? Are they really as bad as people say completely gutless and brutal to drive unless above 5k rpm

    Honda S2000

    No not at all - I had lots of problems with mine and it was just a money pit - by the time I was selling it it was near perfect but it had broken my heart so many times I couldn't forgive it haha. It's also very harsh and loud to drive day to day and very unforgiving in the wet - had quite a few brown trouser moments haha

    It's an amazing car though, I'd Definetly buy one again armed with the knowledge I have now.

    Just have to get the want for a 106 gti out of my system first

    IMO an s2000 is an amazing second car - I wouldn't have it as a daily again though

    And be prepared to pay twice the price of one already in Ireland! JDM S2000s are not cheap at the minute:sad: In fact no Honda is!

    Yup and they are increasing in value all the time - ep3's are good value at the moment though
