Ah, the early 2000s, a time when neon lights, Lambo doors, stereo systems, and NOS were the epitome of cool in the car scene. A time when “The Fast and the Furious” just hit the big screen, and the announcement of “2 Fast 2 Furious” had us all on the edge of our seats. A time whe NOPI Nationals was the pinnacle event, showcasing the craziest and most over-the-top builds the import scene had ever witnessed. Fast forward to 2024, and a time-capsuleSupercharged Widebody 2002 Honda S2000 is heading to Mecum Auctions in Kissimmee.
Now, you might be wondering, why should anyone care about a riced-out Honda? Well, let me tell you, this particular S2000 is not your average ride. With a mere 2,100 miles on the odometer – yes, you read that right, 2,100 miles. This car is pretty much new and preserving the essence of what the early 2000s were all about. And, of course, with such low mileage, it’s had only one owner, talk about a rare find.
Let’s dive into the mods that make this S2000 a standout. The first thing that catches the eye is the custom paint job, a dazzling combination of blue and orange with intricate airbrush detailing. The Mastergrade widebody aero kit, featuring carbon fiber splitters, sits proudly atop one-off orange HRE alloy wheels, adding a touch of sophistication to the aggressive design.
Stepping into the interior is like entering a time machine. Carbon fiber dominates, complemented by painted orange accents. As a period piece, Sparco was the go-to brand, and this S2000 proudly boasts racing seats and a steering wheel from the iconic aftermarket manufacturer. The stereo system is none other than Pioneer audio with Rockford Fosgate components, a nod to the audio preferences of that glorious era.
But what about performance? Fear not, because this S2000 is equipped with a Vortech supercharger with a power cooler. Yet, the most mind-boggling feature has to be the rear brake rotors – they look like they came straight out of a Ninja training camp. It’s a level of uniqueness that defies explanation.
It’s astonishing to think that many of us who are now deeply entrenched in the car scene were once enamored with these extravagant builds. This was our motivation, the driving force that fueled our passion and propelled us to where we are today. As I stand on the brink of witnessing the auction of this Supercharged Widebody 2002 Honda S2000, I can’t help but feel a rush of nostalgia for the golden age of car customization. Here’s to reliving the glory days – one auction at a time.
