i too believe S2's are overrated. they're uncomfortable as hell, i think i could make a car out of all 2X4's and have it be more comfortable. they're slow as dog shit (even with blowers), you would think they would be fun to drive since theyre about the size of a go cart, but honestly a CTS-V is more fun to drive.



PFT get the FU*K out of here.
****ing noobs.

CTS-V is no where the driving experience of an s2000. or better yet Civic Si.
and no, i don't consider our car slow even with a blower.








hell, there's people making 700 whp stock motor stock tranny.

bring a CTS-V that can fuc* with that

there is one s2000 making 700 whp with stock motor n tranny. and thats not a real valid argument. you dont wanna mess with modded cts-v. Do you not think that thos modded/FI LS engines can put out upwards of 900+ whp

^^^This guy's name on the site is "Redneckbmxer24." Yeah, you can really rely on the opinion of a redneck about which car is more fun to drive, a Japanese roadster or an American sports sedan.
I'm not going to fanboi, though. The S2000 isn't as quick as its appearance makes it look.

"CTS-V Starting at $60,700* Supercharged 6.2L V8 with 556 hp"

$60k+?
6.2L?

What headers and exhaust did the S2000 have though? I'm curious.

s2k aok, i'm going to assume he doesn't have an 09 (which is the numbers you're using). IIRC, the 07's and lower have 405(?) HP

The CTS is more fun to drive than the S? Yeah, and a 6000-lb truck is more fun than an Elise too.

stock motor can pull out 900+ ?
if so, still, i'd put my money on this s2000.
