2003 Honda S2000 7,389 Miles Black With Vortech Supercharger on 2040-cars
Cincinnati, Ohio, United States
|
This 2003
two owner S2000 is in fantastic condition and is complimented by great
performance. The $6,290(plus installation) Vortech Supercharger increases the horsepower “by
49%” to give you “358” as stated by Vortech on its webpage. The body is a 9.5/10 and the interior is a
9.9/10 as you might expect from mostly a one owner car with only 7,389 miles as
shown on the odometer and documented in the clean Carfax. I bought it last September and have put about
500 miles on it. As you can see the underside is as unbelievably clean as the
topside. When have you last seen a car’s underside this clean? Obviously it has
not been driven in bad weather. The
aftermarket exhaust is by MW and there is a MW badge on the trunk. I had a pre-purchase inspection performed by
a Honda dealer before I bought it passed
with flying colors. Compression in each
of three cylinders was 220# and in the
fourth was 230#. The wheels are all
scratch and curb rash free and are as new and the one pictured is representative
of the other ones. Tires are original and the fronts have 7/10” and the rear 4/10”. Due to their age 4 brand new tires, rated
better than the competitor tires in a Tire Rack comparative test, are included
with the sale as well as a nice car cover.
There is an aftermarket amp in the trunk. The top with the heated rear glass window is
very nice. There are no tears in the
seats or scrapes and the original mats are nice. The 9000 rpm redline takes some getting used
to as your natural inclination is to want to shift at about 6500 as most cars
require. The sound is fantastic. The
V-tech cam lets you know around 7200 RPM that it has arrived. The next year
S2000 lowered the rev limit, a shame.
Handling is superb. I have had 6
different Porsches on the race track at Mid Ohio including a Boxster S and I can
say without qualification that this car handles very well. I have not tracked this car. If you can find the Mid Ohio Track Video
showing an instructor in one you will see how well they handle. So good was this year and S200 that Car and
Driver picked it in a comparison test over a Borsche Boxster, Z4 BMW, a 270Z
and an Audi TT. It shows no paint work
and the clean Carfax shows no accident history. The AC blows cold..The stock
items removed for the Vortech installation are included with the car. I had the local Honda Dealer change the oil,
brake fluid and anti-freeze right after I got it last fall. I have the record of this fluid change as
well as the pre-purchase inspection invoice.
Check out the completed listings and you will see that one with a few
thousand less miles just sold for $23,000 and because it was for the latter
series it is not as desirable in my opinion. And more importantly, it is missing the Vortech
fun factor costing over $7500, counting installation. I have purchased several Porsches and Audi’s from Ebay or Autotrader without seeing them and
this is the best car purchased on line in terms of condition. I will not entertain bids or offers from
people with no ebay rating. |

Honda CR-V caught wearing facelift in Europe
Mon, 04 Aug 2014A few years on from its 2011 debut, the current Honda CR-V is preparing to go under the knife for a refresh. Typical of these sort of mid-cycle deals, the changes for Honda's popular CUV are minor.
The front of the car is home to the most dramatic (a relative term here) changes, with revised headlights sporting what looks like a slimmer profile. The three-bar grille has been heavily tweaked and is now a two-bar item, with a larger lower bar and a nose badge that covers both upper and lower sections.
The fascia itself has been modified with what looks like a larger lower intake, while the foglights have gone from the circular pattern of the current car to a rectangular pattern on the facelifted model. It looks like they'll still sport conventional bulbs, although the shape of the lights themselves look like a natural fit for a set of LED running lights (as is the trend).
Honda nav concept replaces head unit with Android phone
Wed, Feb 24 2016The desire for better in-car tech without compromising safety is what led Drivemode co-founders Yo Koga and HK Ueda to create their auto-centric Android app. It presents a clutter-free UI specifically meant for driving. The single-button, no-look interface uses display-wide swipes and taps and presents audio cues to help keep your eyes on the road -- and not the glowing rectangle you have mounted to your dash. With over 400,000 downloads, the app has gotten the attention of not just drivers, but also major automakers, including Honda. The carmaker has partnered with Drivemode to create a concept vehicle that completely replaces the head unit with a phone. It's not just shoving an Android device into the dash either; the head unit is completely integrated with the car's controls. For instance, the buttons on the wheel that usually control the radio now control the app. Additionally, the backup and right-side blindspot cameras are now displayed on the phone too. Honda and Drivemode say this is still just a concept and potentially years away from actually happening. But it's part of a larger plan to build an app for automakers; a way to offer its software replacement for the traditional in-dash system. In the meantime, though, Drivemode is looking for other ways to make a bit safer. For instance, Ueda says the app will eventually support aftermarket Bluetooth backup and blindspot cameras. So, drivers can buy the cameras and mount them to their cars, allowing them to have an additional safety feature, even if their vehicle didn't have that option when purchased new. In particular, the Drivemode team sees an opportunity in lower-end vehicles that are less likely to come pre-installed with Android Auto or Apple CarPlay. The app replicates many of the features found in those systems which tend to be found in medium to high-end cars. For drivers who can't afford the trim levels that offer those smartphone-integrating options (or are are not looking to upgrade their whip), they can still enjoy a more integrated driving experience without weaving all over the road trying to launch Spotify. Unfortunately, the app is for Android only right now, but Drivemode is looking for additional funding to build an iOS version.

Surprise! McLaren and Honda finally call it quits
Tue, Sep 12 2017It's been coming for a long while, so it should surprise no one to learn that McLaren and Honda have finally called it quits. Sources confirmed to Motorsport.com and Sky Sports that the two companies have finally settled on a deal that will end a partnership that has been nothing but heartache and tears. McLaren has reportedly inked a three-year deal to use Renault engines, ending in 2020 along with the current engine regulations. This also means McLaren driver Fernando Alonso is likely to extend his contract beyond the end of this season. When Honda first announced it was returning to F1 with McLaren, fans had visions of Fernando Alonso and Jenson Button reliving the glory days of Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost in the late 1980s. The truth couldn't be further removed. At points, McLaren has struggled to make it the full race distance, much less win races and fight for championships. Frankly, it's been embarrassing for both Honda and McLaren. No one comes out a winner here. Honda has sullied any reputation it had in F1, while Alonso's talent and McLaren's engineering expertise were both wasted the past few seasons. According to Motorsport.com, McLaren will get the same engine parity as the factory Renault Sport team as well as Red Bull Racing. Assuming that McLaren can provide a competitive chassis, that should vault it at least into the middle of the pack. Team principal Zak Brown hasn't been quiet about his frustrations. After both McLaren drivers failed to finish in Italy, Brown told Sky Sports, "We need to get more competitive. This weekend showed we're not making any significant progress." Meanwhile, Toro Rosso will switch from Renault to Honda power, with Toro Rosso driver Carlos Sainz Jr. making the move to Renault. What that means for Red Bull's junior team is unclear.
