Got 32 mpg out of mine on a 280 mile-drive from Brentwood to Whitby the other day - cruising 85-ish on motorway.
I too think the S2000 is a gem. As for people who say it's getting long in the tooth? Bo!!ocks - if it ain't broke....... I truly think that the s2000 was (and still is) waaaaaay ahead of its time - a sharp-handling light car with a small high-revving engine: you just watch what the competition do the next few years.......... and they'll only be catching up at best.

Love the way we all slowly move away from the topic and give our S a pat on the back

Anyway, I have always loved the 350z in coupe form and was very close to buying one. However soft top motoring was high on the agenda

350z Roadster was surely an after thought and to cash in. However as much as I dislike the Chrysler Crossfire, it looks so much better as a soft top.

Just found this info about the coming 3.7L 350hp 350Z.

That extra 75bhp compared to the one I owned could change everything and make it a real world M3/911 competitor for under 30K. 5.2-5.4 to 60?
