Default WallyChamp to the sk2i boards

Hi all,

I don't own an s2000 but am planning on it as soon as I can. I currently drive a 2007 hybrid camry and its super boring every minute.... i save a lot though, i get about 38-39 mpg; on the same note, i am turned off by the s2000's mpg.
my other car up for consideration is a used m3. I kinda prefer the s2k based on looks, fun and costs.

The S is a pretty good middle ground between the two (mpg). Drive both to see which you like better.

I also run wallychamp.com so check it out if you have a moment.
I got 31 MPGs on a 1700 mile run down to Tennessee last April with plenty of VTEC and 100 mph jaunts. Try that in a Camry.
