DD mine everyday! But I'm also a bit of a loner and withing the S2000 height and weight requirement (no tilt steering) so it was the perfect car for me!

I have a beater but I find it hard not to drive my S everyday cause its just so smooth and comfy for me IMO

So I'm looking into getting a 2002 S2k soon, finally retiring my 1988 Prelude 2.0Si 4WS.

After reading this thread it seems that switching out shouldn't be too bad - the only big complaint was lack of torque. Now, coming from an 88 Prelude, am I honestly going to feel like I'm losing any low end?? lol

Also, how bad is the lack of trunk space? to a single 22 year old guy I mean. Be honest!

lmao...coming from an 88 prelude, you're going to feel like you're driving a monster truck, the S2000 has low torque compared to the other sports cars in its class...it doesnt mean it has NO torque, its light and has a peeky powerband, the only time you'll notice the lack of low end power is honestly at times when you probobly wont miss it anyways.

lol thanks for the explanation

My Prelude does fine for a non-VTEC with all the work I've done to it, but I doubt it's putting more than 140hp and 130tq to the wheels even WITH all my mods (CAI, staged header, full 2.5" crush-bent exhaust, B18 intake cam, ported N polished IM, 60mm TB [it has 55mm stock], high-flow cat, etc).

I mean, sure it's got a 2.0 but OEM new specs were 135 horse and 127 torque.
The F20C makes what, 240 horse and 150ish torque?

Truthfully that was my only concern - The old Prelude supposedly makes peak torque at 4000 on the dot, and I just didn't want to feel like my 'new' $15,000 nice car was less ballsy below that RPM.

I can imagine the S2k to drive somwhat similarly to my type-R. At low rpms, it feels like a civic, but its not that bad cause the revs come so fast that youll be hitting 80 in no time and have to slow down.
