probably the most inventive ad i have ever seen, if there was one for the rx8 though it'd be a lot shorter as they used about every piece of the engine for something in this ad. wait for it to load, sorry dialup guys it may take some time, but cable users it should load fine, maybe pause a few times (mine "froze" for a few seconds like twice).

s2k = sucks unless you launch at 7k+, at which point the driveline fractures and explodes. I've driven my girl's father's s2k multiple times...well i shouldnt say drive. he goes away, i get a personal race car. I've tried everything launching low, launching high. and let's just say that after i discovered the sweet launch spot in the tach it wasn't long after that he sent the car in for a new rear diff, the most commonly broke piece on the car. If you're gonna make a car that requires a high launch to be competitive, you need to compensate. Other then that i do like the s2k... at the end of the day tho it's a honda.



nsx = overpriced honda, which at the end of the day is still just a honda. sure it handles nice blah blah blah, but if i'm paying that much for a sports car i want the engines most advanced feature to be something mor then vtec.

oh and my friend works at mahwah honda, so i dare you to tell me the s2k's don't explode as i will convince him to get me the RO's for them if need be.

i guess you dont like to road race or autox...cause those cars are damn good....if drags ur thing...dont go with those cars



but then why have an FD? go get a shelby and drag nothing will snap



RWD hondas are awesome, and theyre bikes are cool too....the company is great, we all know the cheap eco rice...but honda is still top notch and they make amazing cars and bikes for what they project to sell them to...



****get outta that bunker and give me it!!!! i just defended honda...im ******* in trouble....***

no i enjoy racing at the track, and have participated in my fair share of SCCA events. and yes i agree they're both good for said events. but the nsx is still overpriced in my book. The s2k and new s2200 (i saw a nice bunch of photos of it, changes the whole attitude of the car(hardtop s2k basically)) are very nimble and strong cars. But still the drivetrain can't handle it's own abilities. I do like them tho, other then my friend's ylelow type-r they're the only honda's i give props too.



nsx's can bite me honestly, thy do nothing for me. it's a mid-engine civic in my eyes, that as i have said, is over-priced.
