What do we think of these? This car topped the JD Power survey for a couple of years running - got to be good:

 

[Kontraband]

yeah, freely revving engine, drop top, reliable... plus VBH had one and I am strangly attracted to her sometimes!?!!

Great car at the right time on the right bit of road, however, it is all about revs

 

[paddy]

OK if your short !! built for Japs.

 

[A4 seanie]

Has to be a cool car it revs to nearly 9000 rpm thats cool

 

[audi_ABK]

My opinion is that Honda engines are great. Respect for these high revs engines.

You found that too?
I'm 6'3" and found I didn't have enough legroom in it.

Shame...as I really fancied one.

I love them. Nearly bought a white 04 plate import that'd had turbo conversion last yr. Was a really good price. It'd been involved in a very minor accident. Just needed a tiny bit of panel work/paint.

I went home to think about it. Phoned about about 2hrs later to say i'd have it & somebody else had been & put a deposit on it shortly after i'd left!! ****** typical!!

Wasn't fussed for 2 long tho as I ended up buying the Evo shortly after

You have to respect the Great Engine and Faultless Reliability. Does that make it cool? or perhaps to boring?

I think it's cool, it is a thinking mans roadster.

One of the few soft tops a bloke can get away with driving imo. Great car!

Exactly the same here - I went with my mind made up to buy one. Couldn't fit in the thing to give it a test drive (6'4''). Gutted at the time - not so gutted now.

 

[APL TDi]

Its one of my top 10 fav cars....... but I think its a bit uncool.....

 

[PaulAr]

Really like these.
Apart from Boxtser S its the only roadster I could see myself in.
Quite cool too IMO.

 

[DRL87]

Great car. Production has been stopped i think and the predecessor the S3000 has been cancelled. stupid credit crunch

 

[edition]

Not too keen

 

[Bignick]

Really like these.

Quite cool too IMO.

I like it, but the Boxter S is seriously cr@p ! Sorry but its true.

controversial!

I had a 20min blast in one a few years back and thought it was great. Bit more ordinary inside that I was expecting.

Whether its cool or not is another matter.
Each to their own I suppose.

It's had it's day now in my eyes, and really hasn't aged well.

 

[andy1acars]

Just sold a mint one, didn't have it long, hits 9k rpm, mine had mods done so very quick but changed it for a more relaxing car. I had an induction kit on it which sounded mad but you look like a lunatic doing 6 to 9k rpm to get the noise and in London that's impossible, but it wont breakdown and has few things to worry about.

I've had a new 2002 and 2005 S2000, in std and GT variant, loved them both so my answer is subzero
