I've never owned a Honda and probably never will. No offense to Honda fans.

I would own an NSX! But something about Hondas to me have always just been so ricey. Reliable cars, but no better than Toyota!

The Honda S2000 is very similar in philosophy and execution as the FR-S. Lightweight, nimble, agile. It had more power and a folding roof, but both were light, high-revving, RWD 4 cylinder cars that may not have been the fastest, but were always the most fun to drive.

If you already have a cat back system invest in a front pipe & an overpipe. I currently just have the cat back but I saw a car running it with a straight front pipe which was loud as hell ! But did sound a tad raspy on high end and I guess it's the grade of material used on the front pipe. Regardless of it being raspy or not it is not an exhaust for the faint hearted because that crap was loud as hell, but a very good sexy loud

You're right the S2000 = Fun!!. Now that you mentioned it. I would own a Honda if they bring back the S2000

i haven't run one yet but i'd recommend looking for the best grade of material as for Perrin they've been getting great reviews on the 86's; in addition i rode in a full header back Perrin it did sound clean and alright, but not trying to bash them or anything i personally had a bad experience with their parts on an STI but hey thats just an opinion of mine
