Description
Honda’s first sports car was the tiny 1960s-era S600 micro-roadster that was briefly available in Canada. It would take more than 35 years for the follow-up S2000 to make its global debut, but it copied a similar formula of offering a lightweight package as well as a relatively small-displacement, high-revving powerplant. The S2000 was a perfectly balanced, rev-happy (9,000-rpm limit) machine that embodied nearly all of the qualities one could ever want in a sports car.
