Quick impressions: Honda S2000

Last night I was able to drive Alans' (bludragontrboawd) Honda S2000. The car felt very light and nimble. Steering feedback was great as were the brakes. The chassis felt very tight and light, as the car was easily tossable doing a U turn and going around some long bends.

The car was just warming up, so I didn't push the engine past 4k and I was very light on the throttle, but it felt and sounded great. Even at low RPM's, the car pulled confidently with light throttle inputs. The car had an astonishing (for me) redline of 8k.

The car has some modifications to it (Alan, please feel free to list!), so this isn't exactly a standard S2k, but I think it shows what the S2k is capable of.

After getting back into my STI, my car felt heavy!

The Pros:
- Tight handling
- Great brakes
- Light feel

The Cons:
- I'm not use to a convertible, so I definitely heard the noise of the wind
- Gauges might take a little time to get use to
- I wish the brakes had been a little more linear, but this could easily be fixed.
