i had both at the same time. the Si and S2000 are both very fun, but in different ways. the Civic Si is very responsive and agile, but the S2000 is much more fun because it's RWD, pulls harder, is RWD, and has a cool/wow factor that no Civic can really ever have. but i love both cars.

We shouldn't even be comparing s2k with civic . It's degrading.

Thread closed! lol

I should test drive one of those Sis someday.
They look nice, IMO.
I bet they handle pretty well too.
As for the interior, I REALLY REALLY like the interior of the new Civics.
Not the seats, but the dash layouts.

In short, I think the Si is a great DD.

i know this civic is a type r and the s2k driver screwed up a bit, but the civic type r seems to have good potential.

i know and weather could have been a big factor.

Hahaha, what a great video!

Just proves that it's *always* a drivers race, but the Civic did make a good accounting of itself.
Nice find.

The day everyone realizes that at some point in time (not now though) - and if the S undergoes no further development, a stock si IS going to be faster than the S - is the day there will be world peace. But WGAF? A stock CTR FD2 is already faster than the S. Doesn't change the fact that the S is and will always remain a great car.
