The Honda S2000 is a two-seat roadster that features a high-performance, high-winding inline four-cylinder engine along with a superbly balanced chassis. Introduced for the 2000 model year, the S2000 was the first sports car to roll out of a Honda factory since the tiny S500, S600 and S800 roadsters of the 1960s.

With minimalist cockpit comforts and a racetrack-ready suspension, the Honda S2000 is a pure sports car. More powerful than the less expensive Miata yet not as pricey or luxurious as a Z4 or SLK, the S2000 occupies a niche within a niche. Quick and communicative steering, an ideal 49/51 weight distribution and an engine that loves to rev coupled with a slick six-speed gearbox promise a lot of fun for the serious driving enthusiast.

There is only one version of the Honda S2000 roadster. Notable hardware includes a feisty inline four with an 8,200-rpm redline coupled to a short-throw six-speed manual gearbox. Without resorting to forced induction (turbo- or supercharging), this jewel of an engine utilizes Honda’s variable valve timing and lift system (VTEC) to squeeze 237 horsepower out of just 2.2 liters. No automatic transmission is available.

The 2004 model received significant upgrades including numerous chassis changes and the steering, throttle, clutch, gearshift and brake systems have been overhauled for an even more enjoyable driving experience.

With competition in the form of the Audi TT, BMW Z4, Mercedes-Benz SLK and the Porsche Boxster we tested the S2000 to find out if Honda’s front engined, rear wheel drive, high performance roadster can out perform Germany’s finest.

The 2008 Accord Sedan is a 4-door, 5-passenger family sedan, available in 13 trims, ranging from the LX 5-Spd MT to the EX-L V-6 5-Spd AT w/ Navigation System.

Based on the seventh generation Accord sedan, the 2008 Honda Accord Sedan sedan comes equipped with many features and specifications that make it an impressive vehicle in its class. In addition to maintaining its legendary four-wheel double wishbone/multi-link suspension system, modifications and improvements, the 2008 Honda Accord Sedan sedan features improved ride and handling characteristics. Inside, the occupants can enjoy the plenty of room and ensconce themselves in the lap of comfortable seating. The large and easy-to-reach instrument panel reflects Honda’s is large and sharp with Honda’s penchant for easy to reach and operate knobs and controls. The Honda Accord Sedan sedan is available in various trims including the DX, LX, LX V6, EX, EX-L, and EX V6.

The ride is just right for the category. The sedans ride on either 16- or 17-inch wheels, the coupe gets 17- or 18-inch. The front suspension is a modified double wishbone from the previous model, and all but the base LX model get a front suspension tower brace. The rear is a new, compact multi-link with nitrogen-filled coil-over dampers. The result is potholes go barely noticed and poorly-surfaced roads don’t rock the ride. A new engine mounting system reduces NVH and helps the body and engine move in greater unison, and the new variable gear steering translates inputs nicely. There’s even a fair bit of sporty thrown in, with reassuring composure in turns taken at speed.

The 2008 Honda Accord Sedan is a fantastic sports sedan equipped with Sedan technology to offer commendable levels of performance and fuel efficiency. All new for 2008, the Accord Sedan sedan has the distinction of being the world’s first V6-poweed Sedan vehicle. With the launch of the 2008 Honda Accord Sedan sedan, Honda achieves the distinctness of being the first automobile maker to make three Sedan models for the US market. Unlike most Sedan models, the Honda Accord Sedan sedan focuses on both performance as well as fuel efficiency. Whether you are looking for a sedan that comes with power, performance, comfort, luxury and fuel efficiency, the 2008 Honda Accord Sedan sedan can be a nice choice to go for.

Upon introduction, the LX 5-Spd MT is equipped with a standard 2.4-liter, I4, 177-horsepower engine that achieves 22-mpg in the city and 31-mpg on the highway. A 5-speed manual transmission with overdrive is standard. The EX-L V-6 5-Spd AT w/ Navigation System is equipped with a standard 3.5-liter, V6, 268-horsepower engine that achieves 19-mpg in the city and 29-mpg on the highway. A 5-speed automatic transmission with overdrive is standard.

It’s quiet, and while it will get the job done, it will do so at a leisurely pace. You can push it, but the extra giddyup won’t be worth the effort and revs that come with it except in the most compelling circumstances. This is your sipper, not your slayer, so enjoy it as such. The V6 is a much heartier workhorse. Standing starts, passing maneuvers, climbing, all happen with the competence of a trusted assistant: not quite fast enough to spill anything, but you know the job is getting done right, right now.
