Get the 350z, there are already too many S2k's out there.

what about the Elise? If this is your completely impractical fun car, that should be on your list.

I guess the Enzo has a torque converter then and doesn't require the driver to change gears on the steering column. Interesting.
A tranny with an elctrohydraulic system that automatically engages the clutch is by no means a conventional "stick".

I think I have a unique view on this. I have an `04 performance model Z coupe. It was a close call between the S2000, and the Z I bought.
As far as the Z roadster or the S, I would actually say go with the S2000.

if you are trying to decide between 350Z and S2000, buy 350Z. unless you are truely fall in love with it, you can't appreciate the car anyway.

You would assume most people here would recommend the s2000 and since you have been a member for over 2 years, you should know enough about the car by now. To me the fact that you are asking this question on these forums indicates that you already are leaning towards the s2000 anyway.

If you want to know the common problems with a 350z ask on the 350z forums.

I suggest that you test drive both, work out your insurance and repayments, and decide for yourself. It is your money afterall.

Well, there`s something odd; An S2000 owner saying he should buy the Z Roadster, and the Z coupe owner saying he should buy the S2000.
If you`re going convertible, go with the S2000. Much more of a tossable, twisty backroad racer. I loved the tight "strapping the car on" feel of the cockpit.
For open air driving, the S is the better car.
