The Honda S2000, a revered roadster produced from 1999 to 2009, is powered by the high-revving F20C and F22C1 engines. Initial models (AP1) come with the F20C engine, a 2.0-liter inline 4-cylinder engine renowned for its ability to rev up to 9000 RPM and deliver up to 240 horsepower in North American and European markets. For the later AP2 versions (2004-2009 in the US), Honda introduced the F22C1, a slightly larger 2.2-liter engine optimized for better torque at lower RPMs while maintaining the high-rev characteristic, producing the same horsepower but enhancing drivability. These engines are highly praised for their VTEC (Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control) technology, contributing to the S2000's outstanding performance and driving experience.

The Ford 4.6L V8, launched in the early 1990s, has earned a reputation for reliability and durability over the years. Often found in popular models like the Mustang, Crown Victoria, and F-150, this engine benefits from widespread availability of parts and relatively simple maintenance. A key feature is its SOHC/DOHC configurations, catering to different performance needs. While not the most powerful or efficient in its class, the 4.6L V8 stands out for its longevity, with many units surpassing 200,000 miles with basic upkeep. Critics point out its lackluster fuel economy and performance compared to newer engines. However, its proven track record and ease of repair make it a solid choice for those valuing dependability over cutting-edge technology.
