I get you, but when did i ever say autocross or even track? Honestly how many people actually go autocross, and those that do, how often? some only go once or twice a year. most people on here only use their car for street use anyways.

Just one thing I have to disagree about stance being thrown in the junk category. They make a awesesome coilover and have great customer service. Look up Bill Washburn from dent sport garage "whose 240rs run stance coilovers and beat ASM's S2000 along with many other records".

Ahhh it's all preference, gotta pay to play. It's their car, let them do what they want to it. You will always have hating or somebody disliking something on a vehicle. I mean from color to ride height and even what aftermarket items to put on a car can be hated on. It's all whatever really. It's up to a person to ask themself if they want form over function or function over form... or both

I think what you guys forgot to do, is define "functional" I would imagine there are a lot of different opinions about what this means in this thread. What Lil Dre may consider functional is a car that can be driven around the streets at a similar pace as a stock car, while others may see functional as being competitive on a road course against other high end race cars

Well since most people cruise along on the street between several hellaflush conventions taking place at coffee shops, those people may define functional as being able to make it into the parking lot without getting stuck on the concrete lip or sidewalk. To me functional should mean being able to drive whatever speed I want and not having to constantly worry about ridiculously stretched tires blowing out sending me spiralling out of control into oncoming traffic meeting a firey demise....

Case in point... Hella flush can lead to hella fail.

^That is not from being hellaflush, that is L.A. Street racing

The 350 which lost control was running stretched tires and this was the result.

His harsh post was well warranted, in this case. Promoting ultra slammed vehicles as good handling isnt right. The only reason it feels like it handles better is the super stiff springs, you feel less body roll and automatically think it handles better, it just feels stiffer all around. Try taking that on twisty roads or autocross/track, and it will be crap.

You would also be surprised at how many drive some serious mountain roads, autocross, or track their s2000 .

Wow, Lol small world, Mind if I use the edited one for my avatar? Its one of my fav pics

Yeah, Sorry for bumping an old thread, totally forgot about this. I should have made it clear as to what I meant. Yes, This was based on street use, For example, How fast and smooth you go into turns. Someone else mentioned that it may be because of the stiffer springs, which most likely is the case. But theres nothing wrong with getting an s2k, and not tracking it, But driving spiritedly on the street, is what i was referring to
