Honda S2000

The S2000, with its combination of aggressive racetrack performance and daily functionality, is the icon of the Honda marque. The 2006 version retains the best features of its predecessor, but has been refined and updated for improved performance.The 2006 S2000 now comes with an electronically controlled “Drive by Wire” (DBW) Throttle System, Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA), headrest speakers as standard, an exterior thermometer, maintenance minder system, a distinctive alloy wheel design and an upgraded console and seat setup.
According to John Mendel, senior vice president of American Honda Motor Co., Inc, “It’s a car designed by enthusiasts for enthusiasts, and it represents the ultimate expression of the fun-to-drive characteristic found in all Honda’s vehicles.”

Styling and features
The S2000 comes with a powered convertible top as standard, along with 17-inch aluminium alloys, leather trim seats and High Intensity Discharge (HID) headlamps. Options include a hardtop and XMO Satellite Radio.The interior has been overhauled for 2006, including a new seat and console design. The digital gauges are racecar style, and echoes of Formula 1 can be seen in the driver-oriented controls. An AM/FM stereo and CD player, electric windows, central locking and keyless entry are standard. The maintenance minder system advises the driver of service intervals, basing its information on oil condition and road conditions, not on standard mileage or time deadlines.
