This Year's Model Updates:

Honda has made a number of enhancements to the 2004 Honda S2000. Most importantly, a larger 2.2-liter engine has been fitted. This, along with revised transmission gearing, is meant to improve power delivery. Other changes include updated suspension tuning, 17-inch wheels (16s were the previous standard), upgraded brakes, larger tailpipes and restyled front and rear bumpers with new headlights and taillights. Inside, there's a new center console (with two cupholders and a storage tray) and a bit more shoulder, elbow and hiproom for the driver and passenger. All Honda cars have a new seatbelt reminder system this year.

Pros:
  • Agile chassis, rev-happy engine, minimalist design, optional hardtop, high level of performance for the price.
Cons:
  • Still not much low-end torque, no passenger airbag cut-off switch.

  • my old mans toy - 2004 Honda S2000
    By -

    I am 58 years old and retired, growing up I raced motorcycles in motorcross etc. I live in South Florida and Ive wanted another motorcycle for some time but this state is full of old retired people (like me) and lots dont drive well and they run motorcyclist down like dogs I test drove a lot of sports cars and had given up on finding the acceleration trill of a motorcycle with four wheels I found this thrill in the Honda S2000 with four wheels and disk brakes, 240 hourse power that shifts at 9000 rpm. Hang on and drive one.

  • What A GREAT Car! - 2004 Honda S2000

  • Jekyll and Hyde - 2004 Honda S2000
    By -

    This car is an absolute blast to drive, I test drove many different cars before deciding on the S2K. It is almost as much fun as my Triumph Speed Triple, but also lets me bring home a few groceries. Road noise and a harsh ride are a part of the character of a roadster thats more than offset by the S2000s precise handling and sweet drivetrain. Though some complain about torque, if you drive it like a motorcycle (rev like crazy), the V- Tech L4 provides more than adequate output in an open top, RWD roadster with Honda reliability and good resale value without one on every corner. Way to go Honda!!

  • Most Fun per Dollar! - 2004 Honda S2000

    Total reliability, great handling and acceleration, and a reasonable price make this the sleeper deal of all deals for sports enthusiasts! Beats the pants off Boxsters, Z4s, etc.

  • Responsive at its finest - 2004 Honda S2000
    By -

    This car is very responsive to what you ask it to do. Great power for the 4 cylinder engine. I love the basic and non-accessory interior. The S2000 is everything I expected and more.

  • Great Car!!! - 2004 Honda S2000
    By -

    Wanted a roadster, fun to drive, powerful, but not a "chick" roadster. Looked at Porsche, BMW, etc. s2000 was best and cheapest in its class. Great handling/acceleration. Nicer interior than Porsche. Quality Honda all the way. Plus, I dont pass an s2000 every 10 yards on the road.

  • Finally got my S2K - 2004 Honda S2000

    Best way to describe it: "Everything you need; nothing you dont." I live in Michigan and this IS my daily driver. There is no doubt that this is an "enthusiasts" car. You will wear this car like your best pair of jeans. The 2.2L 04 engine has plenty of torque down low and enough top end to make you feel like youre drivng F1. There are scores of additional updates for 04 as compared to 03. One key note: The 04 model produces significantly MORE power/torque than Honda claims-check out www.vtec.net for details. Fuel economy of 20/25 city/hwy isnt bad for a sports car.

  • Fun to drive all the time!!! - 2004 Honda S2000
    By -

    Great for every day driving if you dont need the room .Theres nothing like leaving work after a long day and racing home. The quicker you get there the better,right? Fast is just half the fun, Letting the top down and looking cool is other!!!

  • Could Hardly Be Better! - 2004 Honda S2000
    By -

    Having owned a 2001 makes it easier to draw comparisons between the two. Obviously, I liked the 01 or I wouldnt have purchased another S2000. I didnt think it could be possible but Honda produced an even better car the second time around! Better looking and less "edgy" is the best way I can compare the two. More refined is applicable as well. This car has to be the best value in this market segment, bar none!
