Overview & Reviews

For 2002, Honda has added a glass rear window with a defroster, an improved transmission and a more powerful audio system. There are also a handful of minor changes that only '00-'01 S2000 owners would notice, such as chrome-bezel taillights, an upgraded center console, door panel net storage pockets, a new shifter knob, an aluminum-accented foot rest and silver trim interior accents. There's also a new color for 2002: Suzuka Blue.

• Agile chassis, rev-happy engine, minimalist design, optional hardtop.

• Not much low-end torque, no passenger airbag cut-off switch.

  Miata on Steroids - 2002 Honda S2000
  By TMorrow - October 9 - 10:00 am

  To anyone interested in buying the S- 2000.It does have some short comings in creature comforts. However, it is the most fun Ive had in any of my 13 cars. It is almost like a four wheeled motorcycle.If you can find one, drive it. If you have to pay over MSRP, do it. I did and I sell them. Its worth it. Break it in right.This is the highest quality Honda I have ever seen and Ive been around them since my 88 CRX Si. I traded cars with my friend Jorge, for a day, and his Boxster is no match....Dont bither spending $10,000 more for a Boxster / SLK / TT, etc...The M-Roadster has a little more guts, but the S-2000 makes it all up in the corners.

  Brake-In is crucial - 2002 Honda S2000
  By Jason C. Wang - October 9 - 10:00 am

  Althought S2000 has a perfect transmission and gearbox; the clutch need to be brake-in before you can have optimal performance. The acceleration difference between 1000 miles and 6000 miles is extremly significant.

  Lapsed BMW owner - 2002 Honda S2000
  By Hondarules - October 8 - 2:00 am

  Just picked up my 2002 S with silver/black. What a car! I have owned a 97 328i and 00 540i, and I can tell you that the S is the most fun of the three (with much lower maintainance costs). The engine is a blast, but the suspension is what puts it over the top. Cornering at 40 mph is dream, interior is minimalist and slick. I am sick of paying the status prices according to BMW, Mercedes and Audi. They do make excellent cars, but nothing they make in a roadster can touch the S (having driven the M roadster, SLK, and TT). If you love to drive, this is the car.

  Fun, sleek and reliable. - 2002 Honda S2000
  By KTH - August 3 - 10:03 am

  My silver S2000 with red leather interior has been trouble free ever since I bought it in January of 2001. It has averaged very good gas mileage (for a sports car) and outstanding performance. When I took it to the beach last summer, it averaged 30 mpg over 500 miles of highway driving! The only complaint I have is with some minor vibration noises coming from the top and poor visibility through the plastic top window. Other than that, the car has been a joy to own.

  This car rocks!!! - 2002 Honda S2000
  By Matthew Dellamalva - July 22 - 12:16 am

  This car is the greatest convertible on the market, value wise and performance as well. The six speed gearbox is a gem and the engine blows off most V8s. Excelent value too

  Unbelieveable car - 2002 Honda S2000
  By Daniel - November 5 - 2:37 pm

  First and foremost, Ive driven civics all my life, including the latest, an 02 si. Finally, I get my hands on the S2000 and all i can say is WOW! Pure power delivered by a 9200 redline! Theres not much more of a race car Honda couldve designed. Its all that and THEN SOME! It handles beautifully, accelerates like a car on a mission! This car will give over 90% of the cars on the road a run for their money or even, a good taste of honda exhaust fumes!

  Posers need not apply - 2002 Honda S2000
  By Da Hapa - October 25 - 2:00 am

  Simply put, this is the real deal. A true sports car that isnt for the timid. If you arent willing to drive a car, and I mean drive a car, then look elsewhere. Those looking for wood interiors, heated seats, and traction control shouldnt look at the S. However, if you enjoying wringing a car out and the satisfication of getting a corner correctly and heal toe shifting, than this is your dream car.

  This car is the best - 2002 Honda S2000
  By 2000lover - March 21 - 10:00 am

  This is the car for you if you like head turning looks combined with speed. I tried all the other convertibles in its class and the S2000 was the clear winner. Mine is the triple black model which makes all the difference in the world in how it looks.
