When it comes to iconic models in Honda’s history, you simply have to talk about the Honda S2000. The S2000 was brought into production in 1999 and stayed in production all the way through to 2009 to celebrate the Marques 50th Birthday. Within this production period, over 110,000 S2000’s were made.

The S2000 is well known for having a powerful VTEC engine, exhaling a lot of power without the use of a turbocharger.

Honda S2000

The Honda S2000 is a sporty car with all the extras to match. It’s a 2.0 litre, two seater, convertible roadster with 236 BHP behind the scenes. It’s also been known to reach 800 BHP on stock internals, proving how robust and strong the engine is, just as standard. The car will rev to 9000 RPM as standard also. In terms of all this power being able to grip well, Honda fitted an LSD at the back to ensure the wheels will spin evenly around corners. This takes the idea of a sports car to the next level!

Back in the day, the cost of a Honda S2000 would have cost you somewhere in the region of £27,000 – £29,000. Now, dependant on the condition and any modifications, you can expect to see a Honda S2000 set you back anywhere in the region of £3,500 – £16,000. Considering the car was first put into production 16 years ago, the depreciation is working at a slow and steady rate – great news for owners!
