So I'm on my second s2000 right now and I love it. However, I am thinking of switching and getting an Evo/STI in the next few months. I'm 23, I graduate college in 3 weeks, just moved back home with my parents, work full time at a retail store, but will be getting a new job pretty soon in my field of study. I'll probably be moving out next summer some time.


I love the s2000 and I want to buy one again in the future, but right now I'm starting to need more space and AWD helps in NJ winters. I am mostly leaning towards the Evo IX, but considering the STI and EVO X.

The Evo has it's advantage, like 4 seats, AWD and it's very very easy to mod.

I tried searching but I was able to find anything.

So, did anyone own an Evo/STI before the s2000 or have you sold the s2000 for an Evo?

 

I was thinking of keeping the S and adding an EVO IX in addition. But I don't know if i can give up the S all together.

 

there have been like 500 threads on this in the last couple of years. search and ye shall find.

edit: what were you searching for?

i searched for 'Evo IX' and third link:

I was thinking the same, but I just kept my AP2 and bought a truck best of both worlds

 

Only advantage of the EVO in terms of driving pleasure is the better steering feel. The EVO has one of the best feedback from the steering wheel vs the S2000's numb feel.

Other than that and obviously acceleration and maybe braking I'd go with the S2000.

It's just more fun to sit down low; you feel like you're in a real sports car in the S2000. The EVO still feels...well...like a Lancer...

 

I say get a beater truck that gets good gas and keep the s2k to mod. Or just get the Evo IX if you really want one. There nice cars and sometimes people need change. I had my 93 Civic hatch for 5 years and put about 15k into it and am now trying to sell it for best offer.

 

Were planing on keeping our S2K and buying an EVO/STI to replace our CR-V hopefully by next year

 

If you're looking at awd, there's a Veyron going for cheap right now. It was flooded, but still works mostly.

 

if u can keep both.. i have a evo 9 the s2k.. but if money is tight.. get the 9 for now and hopefully get an s2k down the line,..
