Own a 06 s2000 stock and I love the sound from exhaust in mine to death. This one sounds majestic! The real magic with this car is with the top down and when you are above 6,000 rpm.
MobileGamer Su Late response but I had to learn last year and it takes practice like anything. I’m sure you’ve got it smoother out by now. Eventually you remember how much throttle to apply in each gear at different speeds and that is a satisfying feeling.
The S2000 is one of the most iconic sports cars ever built. I have driven a lot of sports cars and it's by far one of my favorite drives. Now I just need to buy one!
You're more likely to get tagged by a speed camera in a school zone or get a right turn on red ticket than get pulled over for speeding by the NYPD. It's hard to speed much in Manhattan except on route 9A, outer boroughs maybe.
Yeah but NYPD isn't an issue. There are radars with cameras almost on every corner. When you speed they take time date and picture of your vehicle and you plate and send it to your address. I remember when they started appearing back in 2005 and heavily increasing since I used to get a ticket $100+ almost every week. And considering that they recently limited city street speed to 25 city wide NYC government has been making a lot of money.
I wouldn't even venture into Manhattan or anywhere near it, just due to parking alone. Someone spat on a family members car and threw a glass bottle, because we got a parking spot(They were no where near it at the time and did it out of pure jealousy). Speeding anywhere near a red light is something I wouldn't bother to do especially after you see the camera flash of everyone trying to run a yellow. Now the southern state/Belt/135 is a different story.(The glorious 135 is the Autobahn of NY)
Ah man... this really makes me miss my S2k.. 😭 got totaled... I always intended to supercharge it too.. but now I have an Integra GSR that’s SC’d.. so I still get to smile!
so nice, I sold my s2000 for a 370z and i miss the s2k, the 370z more comfortable and all that but the s2k just the funnest ride iv ever had, and that includes my c6 corvette. Its just a purely fun car to drive.
Yeah, the reason i ended up selling mine was because it was missing the acceleration I wanted, it was to slow for me. If I could go back I would of just tried to supercharge it. (this is from someone who is use to the stupid acceleration of a 400hp corvette) most people think its just fine. Im currently selling my 370z, if i find a boosted one, i might be getting back into it. I think the reason its so much fun is because everything fits exactly in your hands(check your size the steering wheel is not movable lol its just right for my size) and the handling is the best iv ever driven, add some speed and its perfect.
Fair, Like a Miata with some power (obviously there are things the Miata is well behind with besides power)... I do prefer the NB steering to the electric rack in the S2K however everything else is superior on the S2K... Have u ever driven a C6 Z06? They are a lot of fun.
Car sounds fantastic. I don't get to see many of these around the Boston area anymore (rust belt) so it's good to see one built-up proper. One of the greatest cars built in the last 20 years, no question.
Omg I’m absolutely in love with the sound... I was smiling just watching the video! I don’t like a video very often but this is one of those times I just have to.
He's just blipping the throttle while coasting down. Look at his right knee. No heel going on there. The car seems to have a lighter flywheel. That's why it's decelerating as fast as it is.
depending on where he lives, the insurance may not be as expensive as you think. I'm 18 and pay $366 a month for a 2016 car, but my insurance company just quoted me at $130 for an acura rsx from the early 2Ks.
@7:36 Well I have 2 out of 3 of your top list! Have had my '03 S2000 since '07 and bought a Backdraft Cobra in '20. The S2000 is a scalpel and the Cobra is a sledgehammer. That's the easiest way to compare the two.
Who else was in a trance with their mouth wide-opened? I was for about 13 minutes long. Not even the loud growls through the underpass took me out of the trance. What an exhilirating ride indeed with the power at your feet and fingertips to directly command anytime at-will. Thanks for another great POV- too bad the camera battery had to die though. =(
Gunyd how is it rude for the OWNER to protect their vehicle from so many drivers that forget or don't even use the parking brake? What’s rude is driving someone else’s sports car without knowing wtf they're doing. Based on this guy’s heel-toe, he would have gotten it, but the owner has every right to avoid unnecessary wear.
he should upgrade the interior. would be so cool if he pull over some leather and alcantara. such a nice car :) by us in germany this car still costs 30.000-40.000€ (used!) they are so rare
Yeah. I'd love to own one, but at that price… went for an NC3 Miata instead 2 years ago. It's not as cool, but it at least also revs to 7250, and it's pretty light and nimble, so I'm happy with that as well. Plus the electronic hardtop *is* convenient.
Man, the video and especially the sound quality in this was superb. Everyone that does these regular joe type of reviews could learn something here. Hehm, Matt! What an excellent setup.
I have liked this car since I was 8 and saw Jonny Tran in it. If one pops up at an auction I will definitely pick it up. Or if an evo 10 shows up I will buy one of those but those never show up at auctions
If you've been going thru motors and are running 110 octane for safety, you should have a water/meth system in the car... 50/50 at the right ratio will turn 91 pump gas into 108 octane AND give a large amount of intake cooling and knock suppression. I run WMI with no intercooler in my 10:1 compression MX-5 at 9 psi in a hot, dry climate and it's excellent.
Nor To the 3rd I suppose but that’s only if you’re fairly wealthy with multiple cars or if you’re not financially smart. The reason people get BRZ’s is because it’s a car to ball on a budget with. To trade that in for a car that’s legendary but still oldish and expensive and to daily drive that and put constant miles on it is financially stupid.
@@danielplumley379 right but you said NA is that a model of Miata or something I'm not a Miata guy, where I'm from NA is naturally aspirated , a turbo car isn't natural aspiration.
Everyone else on UA-cam is gawking for the Tesla Model 3, and I'm over here enjoying a +10 year old Honda.
That's the difference between people who wants a car that drives itself, and car enthusiasts.
That's because a majority of people are braindead when it comes to cars

Imagine using that radar in New York City lmao
NYC is a city with the most cops (51k) in the world and the most cop density. It quantuples the 2nd next city which is Chicago (13K).
