Thanks for all the comments guys.
So since this is my 15th car. Some of you guys are wondering what the others and my perspective on the nsx and m3.
I've owned hondas all my life for 10 years now. I've had one E36 m3 back in 1999. A 99 prelude, civic hatchbacks, del sols, integras. All were modified. And back in 1999 I remember seeing a prototype of a s2000. That's when I knew I had to get one.
I purchased my 02 ap1 and a year later wrecked it. Decided to save some money and bought a 01 yellow itr. (I have pics if anyones interested) I modified that itr til I felt I was done with that project but wanted a s2k again. So I decided to go and try a ap2 (silverstone) each time I wanted a GPW but they were so hard to find.
So like everyone that always thinks of what's next after a s2k? Nsx? E46 m3? Mercedes?
I came across a nsx from a friend. Worked out an awesome deal and had that for a year and a half. Trust me. A s2k does not compare in cool factor or the status. But it was time for me to let the nsx go. Reasons? I had a 96. An older model so the interior was wearing out. It had tan. I'm not a fan of tan. Everytime I sat in it. I didn't like the tan. The clutch was going out. I wanted to spend money on exterior mods but couldn't since I was making payments.
So I decided to get a m3. Its faster. Newer. but after the s2k I noticed a lot of guys here switch over and it seemed to be common but that wasn't my reason. I just wanted no payments. A euro that was sporty and was so hyped about. Put some csl wheels, lowered it. Hardtop. But 3 months later I was bored. Their forums suck. There truly is no other forum like s2ki. The people and the tuning capabilities are so much better with the s2ki.
So since I would repair s2k's for a lot of the guys in the bay area. I drive them a lot. And I decided to finally get what I originally wanted. A GPW ap1. The s2k is more up to date with technology compared to the nsx. It handles better than a m3. Sure this is all debateable. But that's my opinion on the cars. Everything I wanted is what I have now with the GPW.
p.s. My car is waiting for a spoiler. Just can't decide what to get. And I'll have engine bay pics soon. It has a greddy turbo, but I doubt anyone really cares to see that. LOL

Nice cars! Question: Did you decide to go with the AP1 because you didn't want the payments of a newer AP2, or do you just not like the AP2 as much as the AP1? I'm asking because I'm still considering a jump to an AP2, haha.
