I would like to build an S2000 too. I really liked them when they first came out. Hardtop FTW
Ok I don't like FWD at all. As for a V6 not matching 4.0 mustang power if were talking stock for stock thats not necessarily a bad thing at all. Bolt-on GT's(Aside from the '11 5.0) dont do anything at all for me, so its all relative.
Would love to see what it would do with a mild turbo and a few grand into the suspension.

Gotcha I'm just saying in my opinion it's a pretty underpowered engine and I don't think there's much potential with it (not that there's much with the 4.0 either, without big $$). And I'd imagine if you upped the power the torque steer would be a p.i.t.a. also. If it was a RWD car it would be a LOT more appealing to me.

that car does not have that power with stock internals. it is sick, but it is either built or a lie.

S2K's have forged internals stock so im sure that is possible to do without building the motor.

h/c/i c6 z06

I'd sell the cobra in a heartbeat if I could get enough cash for the build.
