*Finished* Honda S2000 Coupe Custom

This is Tamiya's S2000 with a Fujimi 240Z roof grafted on. The lower half of the front end is a Skyline R34 piece. Hood extractor is from a Mitsubishi Evo and rims/brakes are Ferrari 430 Scuderia.

Body fender mods and rear spoiler were done by me with styrene and putty...also there is a rocker panel skirt.

Body is painted Tamiya TS26 white, rims are metallic black.

Just a fun little experiment.

That looks really impressive. It almost looks like a Z4, from the rear, except it flows way better than the Z4 coupe from the front.

Nicely done.

Too bad Honda never made a proper S2000 coupe.

very well done, Dino. That could definitely pass for an actual car. Now do it with a real one .

I'm not a fan of the wheelarches, but they are well implemented.

You've certainly got a talent, I'm impressed.

I LOVE it. It's a shame there wasn't a real life one.

It does remind me of the Z4, fantasticly done meybe the rear leading arches are a bit overpowering. Great job ! How long did it take you ?

Stop looking at me! Look at me! Stop looking at me!
There's a few things I might change slightly, but its still 99% better than 99% of the concept cars that companies come up with for millions in production!

Wow, Dino, that's great!
I really like the Z roof. Usually when you see hardtop S2000s it's the (I think) Spoon hardtop and I think your solution looks loads better.
Fender mods are a bit iffy, though.

Honda provides a factory hardtop, for extra of course.
