Hi Scotty what do you think of a 2015 kia sorento v6 3.3L awd ?
Bring back the s2k
When are you going to do video about the price of old NXS's?
do the 90's nsx please and thank you
@@cyberdasherxd2505 he already did it just type scotty kilmer nsx!
Guy who owns this struck gold. He literally could turn around and sell it for 25k easy.
more like 30 with those miles
edit: more like 40k
yeah I did ;)
Why would you sell it?
AGAIN- E A S Y $$$$$
Years ago I took my old 2007 SI to test drive an S2000 and immediately had to walk away from the S2000 after a test drive as I knew the motor was completely thrashed as the power wasn't even remotely comparable... Never looked at another one again lol
I bought mine 10 years ago as my main car and 10 years later it's still my main car. I love it.
@Emad M I've not had any major issues since buying it. Just regular servicing and fixing the odd consumable that had worn out. The biggest job to date was replacing the rear brake calipers. They're known to stick.
@Emad M you say that like there were major issues.
Don't sell it. Cars like that aren't made anymore.
@@pjetermustakuqipietro307 Yup. I would love to have one of these man.
@@IamJay02 me too. Here to me, engine like that, are really hard to find.
Here, market is full of german cars. No one apreciate japan motors.
At max, i can find a Civic withou v-tech.
The s2000 is a pure work of art
So was the Toyota AE86 Sprinter Trueno. In Japan, they are being sold for between $20,000 to $40,000!.
With the gas shortage, it’s a great time to own a Honda🤟🏻
30$ full ip
There is no gas shortage...
I put $8 in my 2 gallon motorcycle tank and thought I spilled some I was like the FFFFudge is this?
Lots of places on the east coast have ran out of gas and prices are rising
@@Swindy1794 facts
Wish I had the foresight to buy one of these when prices were lower. Probably the best sports car ever made in terms of reliability, gas mileage, performance and value.
1986 Honda Prelude 2.2!👍
@@daddygamer5552 I always liked Preludes but they were more of a sporty sedan than pure sports car
@ Robb Flynn facts
Prelude a sedan? They had two doors! I would routinely destroy V8’s with my Prelude! S2000 is by far a better vehicle but the Prelude deserves RESPECT!!!👊
@@daddygamer5552 I know, meant to say sporty coupe, yes as I said I like the Prelude.
What you going to say when all cars are electric "CHARGE UP YOUR BATTERIES " 😂🤣
Most of us wont be driving by then :(
Scotty will be dead by then. And so will the rest of us if we’re lucky.
um.....SPIN UP YOUR MOTORS!!!! :)
@@tedschmitt178 electric sucks
@@tedschmitt178 Legends never die! And Sir Scotty is one of em :)
I owned a 2002 and sold it in 2006 with only 6,000 miles. I wish I had that one back.
I love how Scotty lights uo over certain Hondas and Toyotas.
And not your spelling lol
That engine is amazingly clean!
Never seen Scotty so excited about Honda S2000 😂😂😂
He might, or might not, had a little nip of gin before recording this video. And he took it for a drive! Ha
@@WorldsBestWatcher exactly what I was thinking!
4:42 when you ask Scotty about his days as lead vocalist of The V-tech screamers
Love those s2000s
Same
Ah yes, a gem. I bought mine almost 6 years ago with 150k ish miles 02 for $6.4K, and now I have it at 250k+ miles, original engine 💪
You actually drive and love yours as it was meant to be !
I have an 01 with about 185k. Not the original owner but still runs as good as the day I got it at about 150k
I sold for Honda in 2001-2003... the S2000 redlines at over 9000rpm and the vtech opens up around 4500rpm. My favorite part about the S2000 is that is is balanced front to back so it doesn’t over-steer and it doesn’t under-steer it just grips the road and if it loses traction all four wheels lose traction equally which makes it very easy to correct and feels easy to control even when it’s out of control.
6k rpms. You weren't driving fast enough. Esp AP1s it's very easy to lose control of this car. :)
U got it cause of Han as me his Honda s2000 from the first Fast and the furious
@BIG DONGLE errr i think you misunderstood. Driven hard you can easily lose control of this car the ap1 is twitchy as hell. How do I know? I own one and its the reason why I bought it. Who said anything about an Rx8? lol. Driven normally its pretty similar to a EG Civic with susp/tire upgrades. Push it hard and you better know what your doing. I've seen two other members in our club lose there cars into ditches on cruises over the years.
Thanks; I’m using this to convince mother to let me buy a used one
Scotty the man. He forgets more than I could ever learn……….facts.
I love Scotty's passion and charisma for cars. He is The last of a dying breed I wish there were more mechanics is honest as he is out there in the country. But unfortunately in the day and age that we live in it seems like when it comes to auto mechanics everybody's a bunch of thieves. I understand people have overhead but people just mark up stuff way too much. I'm all about people making a profit but my God I mean when you completely have to rip people off in order to run a business you might as well just leave the business. If I was a young guy today becoming an auto shop teacher I would be playing his videos to my classroom every time he uploaded one. These are a good teaching tool for young mechanics coming up in the business. Hopefully his passion and honesty would rub off on future mechanics that are up and coming and hopefully the future will have more honest people in the auto field. He is a role model for future mechanics.
This was a good car. It died due to weak economy in 2008. It was a great track car and plenty of after market kits. Harleys had a waiting list at the same time. It is unfortunate, but people are buying and paying to much. The market is expected to decline in the future. The car companies need to realize that car prices are to high.
Prices won't come down until the UAW wakes up, GM pays too much for Viagra for retired workers
@@captinbeyond The computer chip shortage will get rid of the $10k worth of features, but the car manufacturers will still charge you the same same price.
The car was too small for most Americans
S2000 was introduced in 1999. By 2008 it’s had a 10-years production run. For a sports car that’s an eternity. While Honda kept making minor adjustments on the S2000 almost every model year, in the end it just wasn’t competitive anymore. Everyone who wanted one new and can afford it already gotten one, and the used S2000 prices were reasonable. S2000’s sales were in steady decline for years before Honda called it quits. The market crash came in late 2008 while Honda announced that MY2008 was the last year when they switched production in late summer/early fall of 2007.
@@Love2Cruise Ten years of selling the same basic model of a standard transmission only car in America is a long run. Probably only bested by 1953 to 1967 VW Beetle. Auto-stick was available in 1968.
Hey Scotty, between your last S2000 video and this one, I bought my second S2000! I plan to drive it every day! Greetings from Belgium!
Hey! Scotty, Thank you for making my 2002 Grand Prix White with full red interior s2000 go up in value again..
Yours is clapped out so it’s not like there is really as much value there
@@yourfather5324 You obviously don’t know anything about the Grand Prix White with FULL RED INTERIOR..fyi..Honda only made less than 300 of this back in 2002..its a unicorn..and mine has a clean CARFAX mostly original only has 78k miles, engine still mostly stock except a K&N air intake and a tanabe exhaust system..I still have basically the stock wheels and all the stock parts that came with the car..what do you drive? A virtual Lambo?
@@WEILMAN_11 no I drive a 2004 Toyota Camry
@@yourfather5324 you mean your mom’s car right?..where did you get your license? CSR Need for Speed? i thought so..
Man it's an amazing s2k you have their! Hope I will be able to restored an old UK import for next two years...
"they want to be abused" he's spitting straight facts. mine doesn't like being babied. starts to feel sluggish if i do.
...definitely a rev-happy motor! It begs for VTEC’s high-lift cam engagement.
😆 right on
@BIG DONGLE My dad had an RX-8 new and the engine went at 1000 miles. They replaced it and gave him a lifetime warranty. He got it replaced again around 50k. Sold it about two years ago with 80k on the clock to a young man. Great car if you have a lifetime warranty lol
Totally, they suck being driven around town
The prices has just gone up again scotty's positive review ..these cars are pleasure to drive
Finally another Scotty S2000 video 😁
I miss the S2000. Good luck finding a 2009 S2000 CR. They looked slick and performed wonderfully. I had the privilege of driving a handful of those as a Honda Technician. Such a good time!
EDIT - Also the CR came with the hard top, which was the biggest allure for me, lol. Never have been a huge fan of rag top convertibles. (For those that don't know CR = Club Racer).
I bought a new 2005 s2000. I loved that car. Red lined it all the time.
Look at the detailing on that baby. Very nice
Wow that’s a nice engine, and you are my favorite mechanic
I paid a lot for my 00 s2000 last year with 32k miles. Hired a Honda tech to flush all the fluids, plugs, belt, and adjusted the valves. It literally runs like new 22 years later. Every time I get in it I can't believe how good it runs. Like a expensive watch.
Don’t ever sell it……. You won’t regret it👏👏👏👏
@@rickyc6463 i honestly don't know what else I'd buy. I hear that a lot from other s2k members. Newer cars don't have the same appeal to me unless it's a Viper.
@@gigatron2008 I own a 2004 pre AP2 with the AP1 engine but all the other AP2 improvements. It's funny you mentioned watches as that's my other passion! While the s2000 is amazing every time I drive it, a NSX is still on my dream list 😊. Pref. the old model but the new model is quite unbelievable too.
Thank you Scotty for being you,enthousiastic and Honest!!! Have a good one!
*_My neighbor has this badass looking widebody S2K. It's lemon yellow LOL_* Looks pretty cool, and thing pulls for sure!
Theres like 3 or 4 s2000s in my town. I love seeing them on the road from time to time
What’s your town called
@BIG DONGLE lol
@@yourfather5324 Not trying to doxx myself, but its a town of about 50-60k population in southern MN
Afternoon Scotty! 🏁
afternoon!
Please bring it back! it was amazing even for 2020!
Scotty glad to see you so happy. Have you been...lighting up the carburetor bowl?
Scotty props up the value of my S2K once again!!! Love this man!
I wonder if Scotty can abide going back to Tennessee after all these great cars in and around Rhode Island.
I got mine 8 years ago and I’m so happy I went with the S2k rather than an evo or Sti back then
I bought my evo IX brand new back in 2006. And just recently came up in an 2005 ap2 for 12k. They both appreciated very well. You wouldn’t have went wrong with either the S2k or the evo!
In my area they go for around 15k with 150k-200k miles and with pretty beat up bodies
*_VTech kicked in yo!_*
Vtec*
Ahaha v tec jokes ahahah
Haha vtec go vroom
@@LtLongle *_For the memes_* :c
...rice, rice baby, take me home! 😘
This is an amazing car. I personally know the owner and he completely babies this thing. Kept in pure stock and driven very gently. Is going to be worth a ton in the future
S2000s get insulted when you drive them gently. They weren't built for gentle driving.
Now s2000 price gonna go up few more grands.
I am trying to convince a friend to buy it ASAP, before even the worst ones start selling for 50K euros.
@BIG DONGLE I know. But I am prophecysing that they will be a lot more expensive in the near future.
Yeah and SCOTTY WON'T BE POPPIN OUT OF THE TRUNK
Big up Mr scotty all the from Jamaica
hello!
I'm honoured for you to replied.. you are a great man . I love all of your videos. Big up yourself mr scotty .. yea mon!!!!
I bought a Honda S2000 recently. I used to hate in them until drive one...then instantly fell in love. The cars are AMAZING!!
That motorcycle part got me Scotty 🤣
Yea,,,,I’ve seen very clean original ones with 40-50k miles going for about $25,000 to $27,500,,,,but that was back in 2018,,,today they are up approximately another 15-25% more.
5:36 That 9000rpm sounds beautiful
I had both an AP1 & AP2 , AP2 is my main over 11 years runnin strong
When I was working at Harbor City Honda back in 2001, the finance guy there asked me if I had millions and could have any car I wanted, what would I get. I said the S2000 because it was everything it ought to be and the price tag was nowhere near what other cars in that class of driving would cost. Why pay more? That thing is light as a cardboard box, tiny enough for me to push it myself as a 5'2 130lb female. The interior is so tight around the driver it almost feels like a little claustrophobic or like a cockpit of a fighter jet, like the car is wrapped around you.
When I got into it, the very first thing I noticed was the tachometer on the dash because it was so BLACK! It didn't have a line of red color tracing the right side of the gauge the way other cars did. It was like a minimalist clock, uniform empty space between the numbers indicating rpm. I finally realized it looked odd to me because the thing had just the tiniest segment all the way at the right that was barely there to indicate where the engine would "red line". Where most cars had red areas that were at least the whole last quarter or a third of the gauge that didn't even go higher than 7 or 8k, the red line on the S2000 STARTED at 9,000 rpm and only a tenth of the total range, which we couldn't even sample half of on the freeway. It's a beast, and it's beautiful to look at, too. I really enjoyed the one test drive I took someone on in it, but it was the fastest lap of that route I ever took!
And even today, should I ever make the kind of money to buy a car that is my dream vehicle, it's STILL the early S2000. If you ever see me behind the wheel of that sleek little silver two seater, know that I probably could have bought a really expensive flashy piece of ridiculousness that usually appeals to men in middle age, but that practical beast is my dream car, and yes, it will probably cost me a fortune to get one now, especially after people see this video!
Have a 2007 with 104,300 miles on it. Just finished a good stint with a great mechanic. I was excited to pick her up and get her moving down the expressways down here in TEXAS. This car will be with me for life.
Afternoon Scotty!
I love S2's to this day. Would love to get one.
Mine has 245k miles and still going strong!🤙🤘
i love how much Scotty is roasting the new supra
Love ya scotty!❤️💪🏽🔥
I had a 1988 Honda CRX 2-seater. Oh, how I loved that car! It got 45 MPG highway and handled beautifully. Fit all of our camping gear. Such a joy to drive. Wish I still had it.
I understand completely. Mine was an 1989 that I bought new that year. I regret selling it.
I had the 1984 Honda CRX. sold it last year with over 300k. Bought my 05 s2k in 2016. Took them both to the Tail of the Dragon two years ago. LOLOL. Got some great pictures.
That car has a very sweet sound! Not crazy loud, but C L E A N !!
Hope i can get my Dohc vtec 2.0 NA Si in the Next 12 months, vids like this make me consider no other brand for a zippy Daily.
I do think those 2006-2011 Si’s are some of the best daily material there is
@@SnickterP Well i have an 8gen 1.8 Civic 2008 5door in black and the car is fantastic so yeah i can tell you they are. But after a while driving you want some more power so im saving for the Si.
Jesus I don't know how people can sell such a beautiful car. God, I just don't know why...
Some people just want to make profit, keep them garaged without putting miles on them to sell later. What's funny is that, ever since prices went up like crazy in 2021 I haven't seen a S2000 on the road lmao. People are driving them even less to sell for more after.
The cash bro
Spot on Scotty. Mine has 130k but drives like it was born yesterday. Watch the oil on the AP1 and she'll not disappoint.
I saw one in League City just today. Took a picture of it. Never seen one before.
Hey Scotty, love your videos! Thank you!
Hey Scotty! Your great attitude always is awesome to watch 😊
I've had the pleasure of driving these once and it lives in the 10k rpm's. That engine performs outstandingly at 13,000 rpm's when that power band kicks in and the sound is intoxicating, as it the feel of the short gear shifter that has that satisfying soft, yet pronounced feel as you go through the gears.
Wheeler dealers fixed one of these roughly 8-10 years ago and I fell in love with them but after the show you couldn’t get a half decent one unless you had bottomless pockets, the guy who sold it bought it back after they fixed the engine that’s how much he loved it
Saw a gorgeous red one down on west beach in Galveston the other day.
Hey Scott just bought a Darrell Waltrip edition Toyota Tundra had it for a couple months since January NO problems but a oil change! I’d love to see you do a review on those trucks thank you! Love this channel
Just learned something on them rx 7 & 8s thx👏🏾 now I see why 😆😆
Sounds like the famous Billman did the retainer update on this one.
Like my ‘00. Hope to be enjoying it for many years to come.
Should have mentioned the super fast soft top, I think it took 6 seconds to automatically close.
Nice color on that also looks good. One lucky guy that bought that.
Original Owner of a RED 2003 S2K and I love it!
Glad I picked one up a few months back.
Always loved the S2000 one of the best sports cars ever made!
Never would have thought.... now I wanna drive one
I own an AP1 model. I never want to get rid of it
Looks good ...
Scotty I just brought back out a 2014 3.7 Mustang that sat for 9 months of Canadian winter
This is the 4th year it sat out for winter despite having a set of snow tires stored ... started it up after recharging the battery it runs like it did 5 years ago still today it was bought new but no car runs like it was brand new ... but it only has 115,000 kilometers and the sound from the engine and exhaust makes you forget other pretenders. This Mustang has a very short turning circle so cornering is fun but 2nd gear in this 6 speed really moves this old sled ... plus running in 6th gear can be done at interstate speed burning only 9 liters of gas per 100 kilometers...I love your bits
Scotty, you couldn't get one at all in the UK ,
8000 RPM? I'm just getting started 😈
Great video!
Scotty is so happy with this S200 till he has forgot he had viewed one way back in houston as well
@10:00 My brother supercharged his s2000 and it hit a 12 second quarter mile lol . Pretty quick when a stock 2020 hellcat does an 11 second quarter mile .
Thank-you for that Honda mower pic I have always referred to civics that have a whale tail spoiler and the plastic bodywork as 'lawnmowers' lol!
The best time to buy an s2000 was before this video went up
Probably 2010 to 2015.
For a second I thought scotty was going to do a backflip into the car’s engine
1:50
IF HE DID A BACK FLIP THERE WOULD BE ONLY ONE PLACE FOR HIM TO LAND, THE TRUNK!
4:41 lol, love Scotty lol.
🛴🔥🔥🔥🔥WHAAAA!!!!!!!
The S2000 isn't about raw acceleration, but as far as totally immersive driving experiences go, it is pretty hard to beat. Not only does the engine love to rev, but it is connected to one of the best shifting manual transmissions ever made. The engine and transmission reside in a great handling, small car with the classic FR configuration. The S2000 demands your involvement to get the best out of it, but that's the beauty of this car. It rewards you for your involvement time and again. It's a sports car, pure and simple - a great one at that.
That doesn't mean the S2000 is for everyone. Plenty of drivers don't enjoy winding out their engines and don't like shifting so much. Many want more torque and/or transmissions allowing them to use their fingers to shift instead of their hand and feet. That's alright as there aren't enough S2000's to go around for those who want them these days anyway
Great videos. Could you give a review on a used VW jetta 2011, 5 cylinders?. I appreciated.
Those Honda S2000s were awesome sports cars.
Always liked that model, looks sweet.
I've always been a car guy, but never a brand fanboy. That is until I found Honda. I'm about to put one of these engines in a 98 integra. I'm VERY excited. 😁
That would be quite a feat, one being front wheel drive and the other rear wheel drive.
@@motochris5459 ah. I actually misspoke. I'm not very familiar with the s2000. I thought the 2 litre they used was a k20. Lol so. No. I'm k swapping my integra. I got into Hondas about 2 years ago, and for the money, you can't beat the power you can get out of these things. I came across a complete k 20 setup out of a wrecked car, so I put the b20 on the back burner. I can simply drop that k20 in and have the same power I planned to have with the k20 after mods.
Now we are talking about, the s2k 💪🏼🔥
Where I live they’re going for about $35-40k with about 90k km on them
Where do you live? I need to sell my S2000 there when I get my GT4 allocation. 😁

Think I may eventually buy one. I learned some new things on this video
Miss mine, need to get another one...soon
Very nice car, a friend of mine had a red one and I go to drive it. My friend traded it for a Lexus that's hardtop goes into the trunk.
My younger brother just bought a clean pristine blue 2006 S2000 a few months ago. Far from the most powerful engine, but still a fun car to drive and ride in
Also, he bought it for $12k.
Wow…… he literally stole it….. its gonna be worth >$100k guaranteed
My 2001 S2000 was my favorite car. By a wide margin.
