If you have to ask then.......

 

IMO keep the S.

 

Keep the S!!!

 

I wouldn't do it. I drove one on a track when it came out and it was decent but nowhere near as sharp and fun as the S2000. The interior quality was lacking as well and 3,400 pounds is a porker compared to the S2000.

 

House and car are completely different. One is a appreciating (in most cases) asset and one is a depreciating asset. Lots of people pay cash for cars, not many people pay cash for homes. Having 4 years of payments left on a 8 year old car is fine if he just bought it last year and he can afford the payments.

 

If you read into the context of what the OP was saying, it essential goes something along the lines of - I have payments on my s2000, and I'll still have 2 years worth of payments after two years... my plan is to buy a more expensive car that is brand new so that Ican have 3-4 years of payments left after 2 years...

Yes, that is a wonderful selling point and reason to get rid of your s2000.

Anyway, to the OP. I wouldn't do it, but if I did exchange my S for a newer car, it would be the brz/frs before a genesis coupe. And if it was the genesis coupe, it would be the v6, not the 2.0 turbo. Also, the 2.0 turbo is NOT faster than an S, not reliably anyway - I'm sure you can do a DP and tune for under $1k and get 300whp, but Iwouldn't count on that lasting long, and good luck claiming on the warranty which you're paying a premium on.

And before any of those, i'd likely go with a much older car before any of the newer stuff out there...

Both are liabilities, as long as you are making payments.

 

Yep. Keep the S.

I don't know when I just refinanced my house I looked at the underwriting and it showed a number for my net worth higher than I expected. Turns out the appraised value of my home was part of my net worth. I would call that an asset.

 

The fwd Mazda ms3 was said to be more of a sports car than the genesis by one car mag review.
