Hi guys, this is my first post here although i have been a regular reader for more than 2 yrs.

I will be moving to Tokyo in the next few months and am debating whether to get a 2-3 yrs old S2000 or new Civic Type-R.

I had an Integra Type-R before and really loved it so I have no doubt the new R will be loads of fun. At the same time, I have been lusting after the S2000 for a few year and this is a good chance to own one.

My concern is I am sure i will have many visitors and the R will definitely be better for that purpose. But other times I think it will be more fun to drive a convertable. Another consider factor is a almost nwe (5k) R cost less than a 3 ys old S2000....

So if you were me, which one will u choose? Thanks for your input in advance!

 

I say get the NSX-R =) thats one sick ass car.. lol but anywayss i never drove the civic type R butu drove a type R.. its not bad but over all i liked the S2000 more than the type R itself. So IMO i say go S2000 or even the NSX-R =D

the civic type r anyday ....

 

Hi


In your specific case it would be to your advantage to get the type R.
Its cost less and is bigger.

Or you can be like me and say screw it get the S.
It might be a bit more $ but you know you will be happy

Hope this helps

 

go check out the newest "best motoring" video. it places a civic type r against an s2000. type r definately put a second or on top of the s2000...

if you always get company and you end up driving most of the tiime I would go with the R. if you get the S, then who ever visits you can drive! lol!

 

I think I'd get type R if I were ever to go back to Japan.

 

Civic would make a more practical choice in japan, but beign that you take public transportation everywhere, I'd go with the S.
But if I lived in Japan, s15 or r32.

 

how about a new sports car from honda...
