Anyway, at least 3000rpm in VTEC, vs. 2200 for AP2 assuming you're right that it comes in at 5800 (which is also news to me, but I've never driven an AP2 so I wouldn't know).
Anyway, the greater torque and slightly greater hp of the AP2 vs. the AP1's greater rpm "headroom" is obviously a wash since both cars have practically identical 1/4-mile E.T.'s and trap speeds.

Anyway, the deal is that both the V-tec engegement points and the redline were changed.

OP, if this is your daily driver, find out which suits your needs better. Drive them again if you have to. I am realistically a couple of years away from buying my dream S2000. I might get impatient and buy a mint AP1, they are no less of a car. Each time I see an AP2 though, I am reminded how much better it looks. As bias as my opinion may seem, I am still on the fence. On one hand, I could potentially get my S2000 earlier with some sacrifice and trade it in later on for an AP2. Or I could wait 3 years and buy the one I want for sure. I am young and salivating at the chance of owning one, ANY S2000. An S2000 is an S2000 deep down. This car is meant to be driven.







For the track, go with the cheapest option.
