ThatPreludeGuy the vette is nice i def love the car and for me being a big guy its def. more comfortable then the s but its just a pain for an every day driver and more expensive , i think ill save some money also with the s witch is what im looken to do , i really dont wanna give up the power but honestly i dont need to be speeding around everywhere. i went to look at the evo 9's and 10's also but i dunno if i wanna spend that much right now. its a hard choice for me right now , economy's bad. well see what happens . but i def know that the s2000 so far was one of my favorite cars that i had besides its lack of power , i guess that can be changed though. lemme know of any meets maybe ill swing through and say whats up.

Why is the Vette a worse DD then the S? Not second guessing you just curious because I had always thought it would be something I'd want to have a little down the road.

the fuel economy is good if your not driving it hard like 27mpg hgwy iv been tracking it through the fuel economy gage in the car and i am averaging about 21 driving around every day slowly , you just cant beat the reliability of a honda though , i just felt the s was a tighter car to drive around every day and more in my budget to maintain , iv been to the dealer like 4 times in the past few months bc the gas cap was designed horribly and never seals properly causing a check engine light sometimes and a message on the dic.i never had 1 problem with the s2000

well i had an 01 and never experianced a single problem with the car , even with the mods i had done to it , never one problem . Its also just an easier car to jump in and get around in. Plus were can i really use 450 hp , its a waste to me because im working pretty much every day and i would be saving myself about $300 a month. what years s2k's had the gas cap problem ? mines really cheaply made , i do like having my hud heads up display and nav though. built in g meter but that could always be added to the s. lol

I have a MINT '01 S2000 Red/Black for sale with only 24,000 pampered miles. Drop me a line if you're interested. Have a few people coming over to look this weekend so don't know how long she'll be around.
