2002 Honda S2000

The 2002 Honda S2000 Convertible is a thrilling, driver-focused roadster that embodies Hondas engineering prowess and motorsport heritage. Its sleek, compact body, with sharp angles and a low-slung profile, is accentuated by a power-operated vinyl soft top with a glass rear window featuring an electric defroster-a 2002 upgrade from the previous plastic window.

Finished in Berlina Black, powered by a 2.0-liter DOHC four-cylinder F20C engine with VTEC, it delivers 240 horsepower at a screaming 8,300 rpm and 153 lb-ft of torque at 7,500 rpm, making it the highest specific output (120 hp per liter) of any normally aspirated production engine at the time. Paired with a refined six-speed manual transmission-updated in 2002 for smoother, quieter shifts-and a Torsen limited-slip differential, it rockets from 0-60 mph in under 6 seconds.

The rear-wheel-drive chassis, with a near-perfect 49:51 weight distribution, features a racing-inspired four-wheel double-wishbone suspension and electric power steering for razor-sharp handling. The minimalist interior boasts supportive leather seats (black, red, or blue depending on exterior), a digital instrument cluster, and a push-button start, with new 2002 enhancements like chrome-bezel taillights, an upgraded center console, and silver interior accents. With a curb weight of just 2,750 lbs, the S2000 offers exhilarating performance, reliable Honda build quality, and open-top fun, making it a coveted classic among enthusiasts.
