Road TestCar reviews - Honda - S2000 - convertibleHonda modelsOverviewHonda's sublime S2000 can hold its head high - even up against Porsche's Boxster5 Apr 2001 By TERRY MARTIN HONDA'S S2000, like any worthwhile new car, takes us places where no-one has ventured before - in this case, to new heights of normally aspirated power. With 176kW from two litres, the Honda's engine is perhaps the most brilliant of the decade, delivering the greatest specific power output of any normally aspirated engine used in a road car. And unlike the company's very first attempt at a sports car, the S2000 has a chassis well matched to the engine's towering capabilities. The icing on the cake is that the S2000 doesn't cost the earth. An in-your-face challenge to BMW's Z3, and even Porsche's Boxster.
