Tamiya 58236 Honda S2000 M04L Scale Roadster

Honouring Honda heritage, the Tamiya 58236 Honda S2000 M04L reproduces the compact roadster in 1/10 scale with accurate exterior shapes and a tuned-for-road M-04L chassis. The life-size S2000 was celebrated for its 2.0-liter DOHC engine and sporty balance, and this kit highlights those design cues in model form.

What the M-04L Delivers

The M-04L chassis is built around a rear-wheel-drive concept with a polycarbonate monocoque that keeps the structure stiff and light. Independent double wishbone suspension at all four corners helps the car stay planted while cornering, giving predictable feedback for drivers on smooth surfaces.

Scale Accuracy and Performance Notes

The polycarbonate bodywork reflects the S2000 proportions and lines, ready for paint and trimming to match the original. With a 239mm wheelbase and a 6.82:1 gear ratio, the platform works well with the included 540-type motor for controlled acceleration and track-style handling.

Ideal Buyer Profiles

This Tamiya 58236 Honda S2000 M04L suits modellers who value scale correctness and drivers who want a responsive on-road chassis that responds well to setup changes and tyre choices.

The Tamiya 58236 Honda S2000 M04L blends scale detail with a chassis that rewards setup adjustments, making it a good choice for both display and club track outings.

Assembly time varies by experience but most builders complete the kit across several evenings, allowing time for painting and drying the polycarbonate body.
Yes, the M-04L accepts modern brushless setups provided the motor and ESC fit within the chassis bay and the gearing is adjusted appropriately.
High-grip rubber or foam tyres designed for on-road touring cars yield the best steering precision and lap times on sealed surfaces.
With a sharp hobby knife and a steady hand, cutting and masking the polycarbonate body is straightforward; use fine sanding to clean the edges after trimming.
Basic RC tools like hex drivers, pliers and a small spanner set are enough for suspension assembly; precision screwdrivers help with finer adjustments.
