Some around here call the S2000 the best Honda ever. Whether you agree or not, most at least believe the little roadster has already carved out a chapter for itself in the annals of future classic car-dom. And it's done that in less than three years on the market. How much longer Honda churns out these gems we can't say; how much longer doesn't really matter. What matters is that so long as there are S2000s to fling like go-karts through city parks and down mountain roads, so long as that sweet little 2.0-liter keeps spinning out a mind-boggling naturally aspirated 120 horsepower per liter, or so long as you can lie back, close your eyes and feel the snick-snick of the billet shifter in your grip, then the S2000-because it existed at all-is legendary already.
