Not aggressive enough in the styling department. They need to start by removing that chrome "stripe" going across the nose.

They gave it braces!

Someone photoshop some headgear in there.

That's the new one? Looks exactly like the old one.

Oh wait they added those sweet LED light bars that will be out of style in 2.83 years

Good for them, but looks meh...


ETA: the reason why it looks so similar to the old one, is because it's nothing more than an aftermarket body panel kit to fit an existing car.

AP1 or 2?

The old one is arguably one of the best drivers cars to come out in a long time, at any cost. Plus they were cheap. I like that they are bringing it back, not liking the chrome strip, and it looks basically the same. Another fact about the S2000, they had the best hid projector design ever made, I have custom headlights for my Benz that utilize the s2000 projector.
ETA the Benz headlights are stock Benz lights that were taken apart, painted matte black inside and the S2000 hid projectors were installed and tuned by a company called lightwerkz.  They are not ricer eBay lights.

Own an AP1 myself, and love it.

Much more "raw" car than the AP2 was. Smaller, higher red-line, no trac control.

ETA: That concept is hideous, however this isn't the first time they came out with a concept for an S2K comeback.



As awesome as that one was it didn't stick, this one will hopefully not stick either.

The original was much too expensive for what it was.  If it comes back, it better be way cheaper, or have 400BHP.

Umm, no.

 
The gen 1 s2000 interior was just like a cheap ass Honda civic. For the price it felt cheap.

And I didn't trade it for the scooby based on interior alone.

Standing by it.  35 grand for a high-tech motor in a cheap car that's too heavy for a roadster?  Pass.  I drove one... it was a cool little car, but just not worth what they were asking for it.

Oh wow look at all the people who can't drive beyond stepping on the right side pedal.....

More s2000 the better.  You guys giving it shit would have a heart attack after going around limerock with some of the drivers that I know.


For fucks sake.  It is one of the purest sports cars to ever be mass produced.   Tourqe is for trucks and brakes are for pussies.
