That we can't help you with, RedCelica.

We will tell you that among it's roadster competitors, the S has been a standout since its introduction. You have to pay a lot more money to find a roadster that's more engaging or cooler than the S. And the competition continues to up the ante every year!

While I'm thinking of it, I'll say for the record that I'm really happy to see Nissan back with the Z. The Z seems to be a polarizing design; my fellow PWs in the Corner have very strong opinions -- good and bad -- about it!. Style aside, I just hope they hold the line on pricing and accomplish their mission of bring the Z back to the masses. The last gen. Z (before its demise in the US) was a helluva nice car, but like the RX-7 it'd forgotten its mission.

reds2: Get out and drive, man! It's cool that you love your car, but don't let 'er get lonely sitting all alone in your garage!

If you want a car that makes you smile the entire time you are in it or looking at it then definitely buy one. If you want any old boring roomy vehicle then dont.

A question for owners of the BMW 325Ci/330Ci and S2000? Which car drives better in terms of driving experience and performance? The BMW has more torque in the low to midrange, traction control and stability program. The S2000 is a rocket; pure race car w/o the many features of a luxury sports car. If you still own both cars, which one do you tend to drive more often?

cons: the steering wheel is not adjustable and I think the windscreen seems to catch every stone flying around.

To me, the question is totally rediculous. All I can do is roll my eyes when I read it. If you need somebody else to decide for you which car you should spend your hard earned dollars on, then perhaps you shouldn't be buying any car until you reach maturity.

Cons: The steering wheel doesn't adjust. The pedals don't adjust. The shifter doesn't adjust. The headrest doesn't adjust. The seat only works for me full back and reclined. There is no lumbar adjustment.

Pro: The car fits me perfectly fine, so all that stuff doesn't matter anyway!

Maybe you should take your car to the dealer and have the TSB's done...
