So if your concern is about the S2000 being a car woman prefer, you are safe statistics in the US say 83% of the drivers are man. However, this car is not a toy; it is a car for connoisseurs.

Sorry, I don?t want to be a patz, but this car is about as close as you can get to the engine characteristics of a Formula 1 car. The only thing close is a Lotus Elise or you have to tune yourself. The handling of a S2000 is superior and if you check European sports car magazines they compare the car with the way more expensive Boxter and other pure bread sports cars. To put a little story in I had two friends considering a boxter and a SLK and I had them drive a S2000, both bought that car.

However, what concerns me with 17 driving this requires a lot of discipline. The S2000 is known to fishtail, is pretty rough and it just wants to be driven fast.

Ciao, Franz
