The Honda S2000, shown here at the 2001 Chicago Auto Show, was introduced in 1999 for the 2000 model year. The Spa Yellow color was new for 2001. The S2000’s 240-horsepower 2.0-liter 16-valve dual overhead cam VTEC inline 4-cylinder engine produced more power per liter than any naturally-aspirated production engine in the world. With a standard 6-speed manual transmission, the rear-wheel drive S2000 could accelerate from 0 to 60 miles per hour and 5.8 seconds with a quarter-mile time of 14.7 seconds at 95 miles per hour. Featuring optimum 50/50 front-to-rear weight distribution, rigid body construction, and double-wishbone front and rear suspension, the S2000 could achieve 70 mile per hour slalom speeds. Standard features included a torque-sensing limited-slip differential, 4-channel anti-lock braking system, 16-inch alloy wheels, high-intensity discharge headlights, electrically-powered soft top, power windows, mirrors, and door locks, cruise control, AM/FM Stereo CD Player, digital instrument panel, engine start button, leather-wrapped steering wheel, leather-trimmed seats & door panels, dual front airbags, Immobilizer Theft-Deterrent System and Remote Entry System.
