How reliable is a supercharged s2000?

I planning to get a 2007 Honda S2000 with love miles(under 10K) are they reliable?

  • I planning to get a 2007 S2k with less than 10Kmiles. I was wondering are they reliable. What should i look out for and what are your opinons on this car thanks!

  • Answer:

    The S2000 Model Year 06 and MY07 are identical except for 2 new colors for 07. They did not change much in the past 8 years. The Honda is arguably THE most reliable car company. CNN says that the S2000 ranks as one of the most reliable sportscars (link below) There aren't too many things you can look out for for such low miles, but at the very least would be 1 or 2 fluid changes (oil, tranny, differential) lots of performance modifications (exhaust, intake, etc) or if it had any in the past. This may show that the car was driven hard. Although the S2k was built to be driven, this wouldn't hurt to know. besides that, you can't go wrong with an S2k with less than 10k miles! I am biased because I own an S2000. Mine is a 2002 with 115,000 miles. I had it dyno tested at 103,000 miles and it has the same power output as it did when new. So far, motor reliability is not an issue, nor is anything else with the roadster. The S2000, NSX, insight are all installed in Japan, mostly by hand (link below) Here's more info that would help you feel at ease about the quality of the S2000 in any year. (ESPECIALLY with less than 10k "love" miles :) - From wikipedia: * The S2000 was on Car and Driver's Ten Best list for 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2004. * The S2000 was the highest-ranked model in the J.D. Power and Associates Vehicle Dependability Study "Premium Sports Car" class for 2004 and 2006, and has consistently held one of the top three positions. * The S2000 ranked number #1 in the BBC Top Gear survey in 2004, 2005, and 2006.

I would never buy a used car for anything. You never know what you are getting. You are better off buying a cheaper new car like a 2008 Honda Civic.

the Honda S2000 is a very nice car. My cousin use to have a guy they let rent a room in his house who had one but his was the 2005 model witch is almost the same or pretty much the same. The S2000 are pretty reliable for a sport car and their pretty fast and is considered one of the best sport car for circuit racing. They might not be as fast but they can take turns faster than most sport cars can with great handling and suspension. When you are looking at this car you should check the engine make sure its spotless with no rust no leeks and nothing is really replaced. Take the car for a test drive to make sure theres no shaky feeling and the car is smooth and the car has no problem shifting in each gears because cars like these have a high rating of being beaten on by people speeding with it or always reving it at high rpms. Its also good to do a vin check of this car to make sure the car wasnt stolen or salvaged or anything. Good Luck ^^

A bit small and noisy for my taste. But it is a Honda. They are very reliable.
