Although the S2000 has its engine weight before the front shocks, the principle was similarish to a mid-engine two seater like the Boxster: At 240-260 HP(3.2 Boxster engines), this variety of roadster "comes alive".

I was thinking this same thing after reading the 911 comment. But then I also know how appealing a pristine interior can be.
