Honda S2000 Performance Portfolio 19992008 RM Clarke 9781855208247 Books Reviews

• I'm a sports car enthusiast with a love for Honda products. So when I saw this book on 's list, I had to have it. And I'm fairly happy that I bought this book. Here's what I like about it
  
  -> It's a collection of most of the road tests and articles written about the S2000 by major US and UK magazines. It's nice to have all the articles in one place where you can thumb through them all.
  
  -> Nice pictures and statistical content about the S2000. Go geek out with this!
  
  -> Covers AP1 and AP2 (1st and second generation models)
  
  Here's what I wish was better
  
  -> No long term road tests such as that conducted by Motor Trend
  
  -> Some articles by the magazines were not included
  
  -> No "backstory" included on the car's origins
  
  -> No factory photos or content were part of the package
  
  If you are crazy for the S2000, then you will buy this book. If you have enough magazine content on the S2000, then you can probably skip this book as it covers no new ground.
• I didn't really know what to expect purchasing this book, but when I got it, I was pleasantly surprised. It's a collection of S2000 articles over the past 10 years from publishers such as Car & Driver, Motor Trend, Road & Track, Car South Africa, Motor Australia, and more. Whether it's for reference or just pure entertainment, it's a great little book to have if you're an S2000 owner or enthusiast. The only criticism I could possibly give it would be I would have liked to been able to get a hardcover copy and I also think the paper quality could be a little better. These things still wont stop you from enjoying this little gem. I highly recommend this book.
• This portfolio of reprints is a giant step from the Brooklands books I uses to order in the 70s. It's in full , HD COLOR! Since when? There does seem to be a disproportionate number of articals from those magazines from parts of the world that persist in driving on the "wrong" side of the road. Therefore the frequent shots of RHD S2000s. To compensate for that minor disorientation the reader is distracted with the humor and charm of the British word smiths. Always a jolly good show. This book came to me via The Garage Book Cafe in Hickory NC. The book was shipped out from The Garage within an hour of my order and arrived in a thick walled envelope, undamaged in four business days. Amazing!
• Fantastic book with a collection of articles about this fantastic sports car. Highly recommended for S2000 fans. Great present for the S2000 fan. comprehensive thick complete informative interesting fun to read factual statistics too
• Now that our cars are out of production, this book will sky rocket like Dan Carney's book, but who knows? It's fun to read the non-US reviews that weren't published in the states and it's got a couple of comparos as well. Totally worth it for $20. People are selling this for $1000 now? That's nuts!
• Like collecting all the reviews written about this amazing car that is gaining more and more respect as time goes on.
• As an owner of an S2000 I try and get my hands on any reading material related to this fabulous car.
  
  There's not much out there, however this book makes up for that. Containing write ups from various car magazines this book covers the first year to the last year (1999 to 2008).
  
  I prefer hardback books but this paperback is well done and worth a spot on your book shelf.
  
  Once you read it you'll find yourself going back and starting all over !
• Nice book for Honda S2000 fans. I enjoyed reading a lot of the old reviews. The photo's are nice as well.
