I've made up my mind on the S2000
Well, after much consideration, test driving, talking to S2000 owners and reading a lot of the complaints on this site, both in Australia and internationally, I have decided not to buy the S2000 and rather go for a BMW 330Ci Coupe. Yes, I know it is a completely different car, yada yada, but the clintcher for me was the fact that after being a loyal Honda owner (Prelude VTIR, Integra type R) I was lied to by the service and sales staff at my dealer (not naming names). All the faults mentioned on this site are apparently hoaxes and lies. No 4th cylinder anything, no clutch noises, and no current warranty claims regarding driver abuse. Sorry Honda Australia, but in a world as fickle as it is at the moment, service counts for everything, and with my experience with BMW service through my family, that is one thing Ze Germans are very, very good at.......service and taking your money!

he must've been talking to the dealers at Dick Damelians... In Leichhardt, Sydney.
Nah, just kidding. The sales staff are half-decent people there, it's just the service staff I have real bitch with.
If I was after a sport convertible, in the market of a S2000, and decided to go elsewhere, It would HAVE to be a porsche boxster. The handling is unique. Never driven the normal one, just the S and it rocks.
The 330Ci is a fine automobile. Congrats and hope that u don't have to wait too long for delivery.
