Need for Speed: Underground
Edit
The Honda S2000 is unlocked in Underground Mode challenge 69.
Similar to the Honda Civic Si, it is capable of reaching a high top speed, yet accelerates conspicuously slower than a Mazda RX-7 and Nissan Skyline GT-R R34. In corners, the Honda S2000 performs moderately.
Chad, a member of The Eastriders, switches his Toyota Celica GT-S for a Honda S2000 during the Underground Mode. The player cannot obtain and drive his car in the game.
Need for Speed: ProStreet
Edit
The Honda S2000 is featured in the Booster Pack downloadable content for Need for Speed: ProStreet as Tier 2 car. It is purchaseable for free in the car lot.
Due to its rear-wheel drive layout and low kerb weight, the Honda S2000 can be faster in corners than other Tier 2 cars, but may be outperformed on straight roads, as it has a somewhat low top speed.
It is best used in Drift and Grip races. Players can also upgrade the car's engine to high horsepower numbers, making it a possible contender for Drag as well.
Shift Series
Edit
The Honda S2000 appears in Need for Speed: Shift as an unlocked Tier 1 car and is purchaseable $35,000. It is capable of a Works conversion and is featured with a 3.00 Car Rating.
The Honda S2000 reappears in Shift 2: Unleashed as a Modern Road car with a D 430 performance rating and 2.84 handling rating.
The Honda S2000 is a well performing vehicle within its range. It is capable of high-speed cornering like the Mazda MX-5 and therefore a good choice for a starter car. Its acceleration and top speed are somewhat lacking to higher rated cars such as the Nissan 350Z.
The fact that the Honda S2000 is more effective in corners than in straight roads make it a valuable car for race courses with corners that are close to each other. The S2000 may be useful for drifting too.
Players can swap the engine of the S2000 with the V6 of the Acura NSX in Shift 2: Unleashed. Such upgrade does not influence the handling capabilities of the car in a negative way, but rather improves the performance to a more balanced degree.
