Is S2000 front wheel drive? (I thought it's rear wheel drive)
There's a thread that said del sol is the fastest FWD and said to compare it with S2000. This got me thinking...

Is the S2000 FWD or RWD?

hey...I know it's RWD but than this thread confused me.
https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=304653
After reading that, it got me thinking if my knowledge about the S2000 is wrong and if it's a FWD because that person say comparison between del sol and s2000 where del sol is fwd.

oh man... *sigh*

I'll blame Dragon ado. lol


btw, thanks phoenixR for confirming.

Ive had plenty of times when I thought I was 100% sure of something then heard else wise and made me wonder. Im sure he hadnt read too much up on the s2k, so its a legitimet question. Done flame someone for wanting to learn.

yes, it is a FM (Front Midengine)platform and it's about as evenly distributed as a front engin car can get, Mid engine NSX also has 50/50 weight distribution.

FM? ? S2K is front engine, rwd. NSK is mid engine, rwd. Get your facts straight.

The S2000 is a front-engine, rear-wheel drive car. However, some consider it to be mid-engine, because of the engine's placement behind the front axles.

I dunno which moron told you this but the del sol isnt the fastest FWD car or honda for that matter, or even comes close to comparing with the s2k in any performance aspect.
