Honda S2000 CR

Damn. I've been checking out S2k. The low mileage units I've see are around 75k miles and those are asking price of around 18-21k. I'm sure you'll get your $50k+ for it. They are special cars

 

An unmolested low-mileage example of the legendary Club Racer in the right livery 2008 Honda S2000 CR - Short Take Road Test - Car Reviews - Car and Driver is as rare as hen's teeth, and I daresay this one belongs in an appreciative enthusiast home!

699 examples is pretty rare no matter what make of sports car you're talking about, and the condition of this one needs to be seen to be appreciated.

 

that's the S2K holy grail

 

Try a 2009 CR in Grand Prix White with Yellow/Black interior and AC/Radio delete. Only 1

Friend of mine has a Yellow Cr which he loves and his only complaint is the lack of a soft top for those rare occasions he gets caught in the rain,

 

interesting stats, thanks

 

You just sold one a couple months ago, same color.

 

Here's a good visual tally on the S2000 CR's by color which shows both the a/C and radio models and the rarer "delete" model san a/c & radio. The Grand Prix white delete is indeed the rarest of the CR's, with only nine made and at least two destroyed in accidents.


How many of each color are there?
Answer--> Apex Blue Pearl: 200 made (21 delete models)
............... Rio Yellow Pearl: 140 made (20 delete models)
............... Berlina Black: 269 made (10 delete models)
............... Grand Prix White: 90 made (8 delete models (2008) & 1 delete model (2009).
............... Total 699 total CR's (668 for 2008, 31 for 2009)

 

I'm not looking to spend that kind of $$ on an S 2000, but they are nice. Did they have any other special edition models besides th CR?

Have been toying with a much less expensive fun open sports car for FL. Keep thinking TR6, Miata(just hate the stigma being over 55) and S2000., and maybe bite the bullet and just get a Boxster.

 

Not in the USA to my knowledge. As Honda was winding down S2000 production, they made a Type S for the Japanese market which was basically a CR. Then for Europe, I believe, an Ultimate Edition that was Grand Prix White with a red interior and other body trim. I have no idea what the production numbers were for these cars.

As an aside, the Canadian market had a bunch of special colors not available in the USA. The most sought after are Moonrock and Imola Orange. I don't know if Canadian S2000s would meet US safety and emissions requirements, but it might be worth looking into to obtain one of the rarer S2000 colors.

Here is a reference for S2000 colors in various markets:

And as those who supercharged the S2000 later found out, the differential is the next weakest link. Honda pretty much designed this car at the limits for almost everything.

 

Super cool car, just bought some Michelin Pilot Supersports Friday for our 2005 S2000, god I love this car. Tires feel so good, I am ordering them for my F355. GLWS!

 

This is probably the best S2000 in the country, and will go for a very high price in my opinion. I'm sort of looking for exactly this car, but not quite as nice. The one you sold earlier was really more of what I was thinking since I put about 5,000 miles per year on my current S. I have put just over 40,000 'fun' miles on my car in the past 6 years, and it is dead nuts reliable. The engineering of these cars is as good as it gets. Good luck with the sale, it's a great car!

Glad to see the S2K getting some love! I've got an 03 that I bought brand new and it is an all original no stories car and I still love driving it after 14 years and I've been very impressed with how well the car has held up my interior looks almost like the day I first got it, very good build quality.
