HOW RELIABLE IS A S2000? Inspecting our 501,000 Km Honda S2000!

[@Tiger-gs6xm]

We S2000 owners are now confident that with proper care our S2000 might hit 1,000,000 kilometres.

[@IMCARS]

Easily! 1 million kms is no sweat for an S2000 that is taken care of!

[@PutinIsKing]

Mine is 20000 miles and same car but eu

[@ChrisSadowski]

That’s the stock exhaust on there. Being it’s an AP1 it’s almost guaranteed to burn oil so I hope the new owner keeps up on that. Some of them burn up to a quart per 1000 miles. But this one looks great for that high mileage! Gives me good hope for my 104,000 mile 03 I picked up a few months ago

[@IMCARS]

I did not experience any oil burning at all during our ownership! Unfortunately it has sold otherwise I’d love to do a compression test on the motor and see the results, but it certainly ran strong! I posted a few other videos on our channel about it

[@slimjim77M]

This makes me feel good about scoring an AP1 with only 35K miles in November of 2020. It's effectively a 20 year old brand new car!

[@IMCARS]

No kidding! That's a great car and very collectible!

[@paulsamuel3226]

Don't you think it's hard to trust that the milage of a fairly old car is only 35k miles?

[@slimjim77M]

@@paulsamuel3226 Not at all. I know the previous owner.

[@wrxtim09]

This video puts my mind at ease. Thanks. I own an '06 with 58k miles. I bought it with 31k 6 years ago. Nice to know that just frequent oil changes along with regular maintenance pretty much guarantees problem free fun.

[@IMCARS]

Glad it helped! Don't be scared of driving your car, they are very reliable vehicles even with higher mileage!

[@slows2k352]

I think ill be fine with 22K miles right? LOL

[@IMCARS]

Great choice, great vehicle, you have lots of life left in it!

[@kidyugi1]

You said abs codes buy not communicating or causing any lights , how would you solve that?

[@IMCARS]

Several possible solutions. Clear the code and it may not return. Replace a part. Could be wiring/ something loose etc. Probably not too complicated to solve on a car like this.

[@royalrally9186]

Can't wait to see what you're doing with it!

[@IMCARS]

We have an update video coming soon for you!

[@Clubhopper2005]

Good work! Curious what a compression/leakdown will be on a half a million mile F20C. Pics of the bores will satisfy my scientific curiosity.

[@IMCARS]

Thanks! The car is sold otherwise I would have loved to do a compression test for you. But I never noted any oil burning or anything weird so I imagine the engine had good compression!

[@freznostate]

​@@IMCARS my dream car. how much did it sell for

[@IMCARS]

@@freznostate How much do you think its worth??

[@AgentStraightbait]

@@IMCARS 9k usd tops

[@RogueVisionary]

Did they mention what year model that S2K is?

[@raineretsweiler7035]

You sure that engine hasn’t been replaced? Kind of hard to believe someone swapped an ap2 valve cover on this for no reason. Usually people who are using these for racing purposes make that switch, which leads me to believe this motor is an f22 that was swapped in

[@VikramKrishnan404]

This thing looks almost as nice as my 100000 km S2000 underneath! (shown in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/b4bco3egbMplhZI) Really surprising, especially for a Canadian car. Do you know the story behind it? Also, telling by how bright red the valve cover is, I'm guessing the engine in this car was replaced at some point. Many seem to go out around 150-200k miles, and they all have cracking valve cover paint well before then.

[@IMCARS]

Awesome, thanks for your comment and watching the channel! We do have some more videos about this S2000 on our channel, feel free to check them out!
