how does the handling of the s2k compare with the fd? its been a few years since ive driven an s2k, and i didnt get to push it. hopefully my friend will get an s2k soon so ill get to try it out in the mountains

They handle about the same or even better in some cases. The reason for that is the 12 year-old suspension on the FD's now. My FD felt like a boat until I replaced a few of the bushings and old tired shocks. The s2000 has a more go-kart feel to it. It's hard to explain it.

If you want to drive my car, give me a PM and come down to Camarillo.
