Do I keep her in the garage and pick up an Evo X (or some other jack of all trades car) for daily duties or do I sell the S and get a C7? I love my S but I've always wanted a Vette.

I hd the same thought back in 06' and I let my lease go on my S and purchased a new 07' C6 Z51 manual. While driving the new C6 around all I could think about was, why was the S2000 so much more fun to drive than this amazing Vette. Don't let the S go for the new Corvette, you will be back in an S in a few years.

Who says you have to be limited to one car? Many people I know have over 8 performance cars to themselves.

I plan to keep every car I decide to buy until the wheels fall off.

No car makes me feel like the s. I never liked convertibles, now I feel weird in a vehicle with a roof. I never liked torquless rev happy engines, now I think v8's feel boring. I never liked Hondas, now I have Honda calendars, a Indy car poster, hat, t-shirt, etc. I thought mugen was dumb, now I spend hours drooling over pictures of mugen parts. I used to think viper red was the best color, now only nfr will do.
I'm currently sitting in the passenger seat of my s hating the lack of room to sleep, and I find myself just admiring the shape of the interior- its f@#king gorgeous.

Everything changed the day I took an ap1 for a test drive, and until another car grabs me like the s, the s will be the only car for me

I voted yes, since I had an S before, had to sell it at the time, and now found my way back into another.

So you can say its meant to be.

I just bought a 06 RSX-S to drive everyday and while it really is a blast to drive in its stock format its not what the s2000 is. My S is turbo'd but the fun factor was there from day 1 in the s2k. I'll never sell my s2k. i'd prolly never sell my RSX either now. love it

I'll probably keep my S forever. I'm at 150k right now so it's not in perfect shape, so eventually I'd like to keep it as a track car. That's way down the road though, I'm just enjoying driving it right now.

Yup, I'm planning on keeping my S forever. It's at 137k now and I plan to do what it takes to keep her running. I'd love nothing more than to eventually park it next to a 458 spider in my garage!
