A heavily modified 2007 Honda S2000 finished in Berlina Black has hitCars & Bids, drawing serious attention from bidders looking for a sorted, enthusiast-built AP2. Showing 39,400 miles and backed by a clean Carfax with no accidents, the car pairs the factory F22C 2.2-liter engine with a ScienceofSpeed Stage 2 supercharger, Hondata tuning, upgraded suspension components, and a long list of supporting hardware. With a current high bid of $29,000 and more than 10,000 views, at the time of writing, the listing highlights how demand for well-optioned S2000s remains strong, especially as Honda continues resisting requests to resurrect the nameplate.
From the outside, the seller has added a Honda hardtop (since repainted), a front lip, and a short antenna. Inside, the car features a flat-bottom steering wheel, Alcantara trim pieces, and an Alpine head unit. The factory limited-slip differential, digital instrument cluster, push-button start, and power-retractable soft top all remain intact, preserving the key elements that make the AP2 so desirable.
Engine and Suspension Upgrades
The modifications here are extensive and performance-focused. The ScienceofSpeed supercharger, racing heat exchanger, fuel pressure regulator, Walbro pump, Injector Dynamics ID1050x injectors, ACT heavy-duty clutch, T1R-70R Sparrow exhaust, and Hondata FlashPro tune form a cohesive forced-induction setup that should push output well beyond the factory 237 hp, the stage 2 supercharger with 91-93 octane, on a Dynapack is ~365 whp @ 9 psi, is about a 140-150 hp increase to stock, just on its own. Supporting chassis upgrades include Koni Yellow shocks, Swift Spec-R springs, and 17-inch Rays wheels.
This blend of factory purity and well-chosen aftermarket upgrades mirrors the enthusiasm driving modern restomods like the 580-hp BP25 showcased at SEMA. While this Cars & Bids example isn’t a six-figure build, it taps into the same appeal, with a lightweight chassis, analog feel, and serious performance.
Condition, History, and Included Extras
The seller notes minor exterior chips, scratches, and some wear on the seats, plus paint blemishes on the hardtop. The windows are tinted and the seller cautions that the car may not pass emissions in some states due to the performance modifications.
Maintenance records are strong, with multiple tire, alignment, and fluid services over the years and an oil change as recently as November 2024. A major bonus is the inclusion of valuable extras, such as factory wheels, factory steering wheel and shift knob, the OEM radio cover, and a stand for the hardtop.
For shoppers comparing the broader S2000 market, including low-mileage stock examples like the 2006 Honda S2000, this listing represents the opposite end of the spectrum, not a museum piece, but a driver-focused, power-built AP2 with branded hardware and long-term enthusiast ownership.
Why It Matters
With Honda showing no signs of bringing the S2000 back, clean AP2s, especially tastefully modified ones, continue to rise in interest. This 2007 example lands in a sweet spot, a strong condition, quality upgrades, documented service, and desirable extras.
For a bidder seeking a turn-key performance build rather than a stock collector car, it’s one of the more compelling S2000s currently online.
