S2000 on Top Gear

[VinhPham]

Anybody know what season and eppisode Top Gear had the S2000 on? It's the eppisode where they had the S2000, Boxter, and the Z4 on the show together.

Thanks in advance!

I'm pretty sure it was Season 3 Episode 2.

EDIT: Yup... I have the episode.

Wet track times
Blue Z4 = 1:37:3
Red S200 = 1:37:4
Yellow Boxster = 1:37:0

The s2000 won for the fastest going topless time!

Well... it is a more difficult vehicle to drive at the limit in the wet.

They should do a dry track run

That's what I said. Redo on a dry day and the S will blow the door off the 2 cars.

I sent top gear an email about how the S could do some work on a dry track and never got a reply. I believe it could beat some of the cars above the boxter and z4 no doubt.

I'm pretty sure they don't care. They're more concerned w/ entertaining their viewers than settling the score from prior bad tests. I also don't believe it would beat a Boxster.

Sounds like he was snorting it a little...

I think the S has a really good chance of beating it.

Long story short: I was racing a Boxter a few years ago on the 4th of July and I was pulling away from him. This could be totaly up in the air though but I did hear his engine roaring....meaning he must have been at WOT or close too WOT. I could be wrong though. maybe the driver was just playing around with me and what not.

On a different note, has anybody raced a Mustand GT around MY 2000 - 2003 or so....they're not all that cracked up. I don't know how many GT i've beat in the 4 years of owning the S. I apologize in advance for any Mustand owners.

[Rocketman]

I think we might be talking about two different kinds of racing.

[Chris S]

Porsche has steadily increased the Boxster's HP over the years, while the S2000's HP has never budged over it's entire production run. Make it a current Boxster S, and the S2000 wouldn't even have a chance.

Well at least he picked the fastest color in that episode
