"The S2000 is supposed to be one of the best, if not the best, high performance roadster to be produced. "
Not sure where you may have read this but I have never heard this accolade before for the S2000.
However, I have heard that is a great VALUE given its features and content and I think that is likely true. Alot of roadster for the money.
I drove one and was not impressed. Too peaky and too harsh a ride for my taste.
Having said that, I love the way the car looks and shifts.
