As far as implausible engine swaps go, this one isn’t quite at the top of the tables, but it’s close. However, the Craigslist ad description for this Viper V10-swapped Honda S2000 puts it in a different light.
The car’s owner, who drives it without the hood because he likes the look, says it’s an excellent runner and it’s fully upgraded all-round to take the power; he makes it sound like it’s a daily driver.
It features a stock 8.3-liter V10 from the ’06 Viper SRT10, an upgraded rear end that can take the power, a much bigger radiator, uprated brakes, springs and (quite brash) wheels secured with drag lugs.
The owner has put some 14,000 miles on it since installing the new engine (60,000 miles in total on the car’s odometer) and, as previously stated, he is really trying to sell it as a quirky everyday runabout. He’s even offering the hood, which he prefers not to use, for a grand total of 27,000 of your dollars US.
