Default New 911 370z cayman s 135 s2k BATTLE!

this is not a fair game....i really don't know why they include the s2k anymore. On the other hand.... WOWWWWWW the 370z is PURE BAD ASS. I cannot believe a 350hp? 3100 lb 911 had a hard time beating it. the Z had a faster laptime than the cayman s and if the 370z had one more lap it woulda beaten the cayman s as well. Good job Nissan. HONDA ARE YOU WATCHING>!>!>!????

The guy driving the 911 was useless.

Respect to both the Cayman S and the Z -- both impressive machines that get there in very different ways. I love how the Cayman rotates, such an eager chassis.

Poor S2000... can't be competitive forever, but it still has a special place in my heart.

Enough of these Honda are you watching shit. Honda knows where its business should be heading instead of being told by minority sport enthusiast.

You bought an s2k for what it is.
Honda did not force you to buy.
If you don't like, there are plenty of other choices to get into.

I was surprised that the 911 came in 3rd place.

True, but for those of us who have owned one for the past few years, it's frustrating to see the car evolve with minimal changes, while the competition steamrolls ahead. And now that Honda has officially announced the end of the S2000, with no successor in sight, import enthusiasts will invariably end up turning to their competition (a.k.a. 370Z) instead.

No point being a fanboi, just move on to whatever floats your boat.

Nissan has the enthusiasts' angle covered w/ the badass GT-R and 370Z, yet they're losing billions of dollars and laying off around 20K workers.

Honda's results are down, but they're doing much, much better.

Honda's doing a good job working for their primary constituents, their shareholders.

I agree with what you are saying, but no one in this thread seems to be expressing any displeasure in owning an S2000. In fact, a couple of comments referenced the fact that the S2000 is a great car in its own. I think we all like our car for what it is, but the fact is that it is no longer quite as potent for some of its competitors in a similar price bracket. This was arguably evidenced in the posted video. It would be great to see a more credible video, however.
edit*
No one with the exception of the OP, I see... Well, I suppose your comments are well justified.
