Honda S2000 best car ever made.

That's a real cute 4 banger.
Shame it couldn't break 200 at the wheels.
Step aside and let the real men shitpost, Faggot.
>>
>>15063236
Neither could that

>>15063229

Looks just like the 2005 I used to own, minus the faggy tow hook, the red badge, and the stick-on front lip.

That's Cayman GTS money, and I guarantee the AMG is a pig compared to the GTS

-2/10, piss poor attempt. Lurk moar, newfag.

>>15064704
The Cayman is ugly and will always leave that bad taste of not being a 911 in your mouth. If by pig you mean the extra 180 kg

I don't frequent /o/ all that much, thanks for reminding me why.
>>
>>15064869
Because you have no clue about cars?

Even back in the day it was piss easy to swap a 911 engine from the same generation into a Boxster and make a faster car, it's literally bolts right in
>>
>>15064887
I still don't know what point you're trying to make. A smaller and lighter car with the same engine is quicker? No shit Sherlock.

As an automotive engineer even popular engine swaps already make me chuckle. But swapping a 911 engine into a boxster? Have you ever even sat in a Porsche?

These guys make the job seem harder and more expensive than it actually is

And RUF made a car called the 3400S which was essentially a 986 Boxster with a 3.4l engine from the 996 911

TL;DR you're an idiot
>>
boy this thread went to hell
>>
>>15065051
Wait, are we talking about it being possible or it making practical sense? There's also that dude who put an LS2 into a GT86.

But back to the point, shall we?
>Caymans are now faster than 911s
This is true because you can swap larger 911 engines into them? Are you sure you know which one of us is the idiot?
>>
>>15065145
Porsche uses the Carrera S engine in the Cayman GT4, so it's both possible and makes practical sense
>>
>>15063236
>not posting an M Roadster
bro...
>>
>>15065163
M8, I'm going to bed now. If I want a Cayman or Boxster with a 911 engine I get a GT4 or 981 Spyder. I'd still rather have a 911 with a 911 engine.
>>
>>15065268
So you'd rather have a heavier and slower car with the engine in the wrong place?
>>
>>15065302
>55 kg heavier
>.1 s slower from 0 to 100
>9 km/h lower top speed
>2 s slower on the Nordschleife
Yes, I think I'd take the Porsche with the engine in the wrong place.

This. I'd lake to see a Miata carry the same pace through a high speed sweeper as a 944 or even a 928 is capable of.
>>
>>15065539
My buddy just bought a 1989 944 2.7L, we're going to put it through its paces pretty soon. Seems to have formidable handling so far.

I grew up in the back seat of a 1988 944S, bloody wonderful cars. I still hate my dad for selling it to buy a fucking vauxhall frontierer

Nice Opel. Is it reliable though? I like the looks and as a german I also like Opel. They aren't too expensive, but GM doesn't have the best reputation.
>>
>>15065394
>worse in every single way

911 cucks truly are some of the greatest posers

Everything I've seen says it's a total POS, which is a shame because they handle well and are fucking gorgeous IMO.

Obviously you have no clue what you are talking about. The Ecotec engines are extremely reliable.

How has your car been, though?

Theres a reason why the s2000 is legendary
>>
>>15070869
The white one isn't mine, but my car has been really reliable. Other than replace a sensors that went bad its been good. The turbo bearing did fail right after I got it at 40k miles, but I seem to be and outlier on that situation, as I haven't seen any other reports of a similar problem in the 2+ years I have frequented the car specific forum.
>>
>>15070903
Someone posted their AP2 dyno the other day and it was 198 at the wheels
>>
>>15063036
i agree with this but really wish there was more built so they were cheaper and easy to attain i would say the miata is better because more people can experience driving pleasure
>>
>>15070962
>cheaper and easier to obtain
Dude they start at 9-10k
Get a real job
>>
>>15070903
>what are drivetrain losses

>>15071036
Maybe for a salvage car riced to shit
>>
>>15071170
A friend of mine got his stock ap1 for 9k 5 years ago and it had 90k miles on it.
I'd sell my 04 for 11-12k once I find the right replacement.
