hey wassup s2k owners. i currently have a 06 rsx typeS, had it since january. but lately my friend has been talkin about the s2k and now i really want one. i found a 2001 for a good price. im thinking about trading in the rsx-s to get the s2k. all i wanna ask is....is there any big significant flaws about the car? transmission wise, most importantly. and i know every car has its downs. but anything bad that i should know before i really get into the process of trading the rsx in. thanks alot guys, appreciate your help.

 

This will answer all of your questions.

"Go Test Drive One"

 

Why don't you enjoy your RSX for a while? It's already a fine automobile. This way you can avoid taking a big hit on depreciation. There are plenty of S2000s waiting for you.

 

Do a search on 2nd gear grind. Some earlier model S2000s had that issue. Otherwise, it's the typical stuff to look for ... wear on soft top, seat conditions, etc.

 

I second that!

 

yea i do plan on going to the dealership for a test drive. but im not gonna know the down part of the car with one test drive. which is why i am asking all the s2k owners. thanks for all the replies though guys, i think im just gonna keep the rsx and get a s2k later down the road. i havent heard anything about them being discontinued (like the rsx)

 

dude your rsx is a pos...go with the s2k ftfw!!!!!

 

i test drove the 2006 s2000 and all i had to say was wow...even though the previous model felt a lot faster and revs 9000rpm...the new ones redlines at 8k.

 

8300k to be exact.
