"PPD Whore." Nice. We're down to name calling. Flinging poo will follow shortly, I assume?

Here's the irony of the whole thing: You and I disagree, and you are suggesting that I leave and not reply.

Hmm... sounds eerily similar to the point I was trying to make in my first post, no?

Ah well, best of luck to you in your quest to prove the S2000 is a better car than the SRT-4. My apologies for mucking up your quest for information. I'm sorry I used such strong wording (lame) in my first post. Just keep in mind that if you are arguing with someone who actually believes the SRT-4 is a better car, I doubt any numbers from a magazine will convince him otherwise. Carry on!

 

Ah, now I feel bad for raining on your parade. Might as well whore up my PPD a little bit more, huh? Here ya go buddy, go nuts.

.......................2005 Dodge SRT-4 ACR* / 2003 Honda S2000 **

0-60................................................ 5.6 / 5.4

1/4 mi...................................14.3 @ 99 / 14.1 @ 99

0-120...........................................21.7 / 23.6

5-60...............................................6.2 / 7.0

Top Speed....................150 (drag ltd) / 146

Braking, 70-0.................................161 / 161

Skidpad........................................0.8 6 / 0.92

Lane change maneuver..........64.8 mph / 66.2 mph

Now, these numbers were pulled from different tests, in different years. So do with them what you will. It's as good as you're going to get until a reputable magazine decides to run an S2000 v. an SRT-4 in a direct head to head comparison. But then again, don't hold your breath, because everybody knows it would be a lame comparison.

HTH

Ah, I just love your sarcastic remarks. You obviously need the feel to say whats on your mind and vice versa, and pretty much we are now at a stalemate. So with that, thanks for the numbers[bc thats all I wanted from the get go] and you sir, have a nice day.

 

66.2 mph is very low for an S2000; at least 3 mph lower than what it's capable of.

 

Thanks, I try

I think that's why people loathe magazine racing so much- the numbers vary so much that unless both cars in question were tested against each other on the same day, same track, same driver, etc. etc., you shouldn't really use them as the end-all for a discussion.

 

Yeah, I understand what you are saying. I would love autoX with him but of course I dont have my S. But I will have a MY06 soon, after a couple of deals go through[Part time mortgage broker]. Anyways, thanks for your input.
