dont drive an evo 9 with 2000 dollars in bolt ons and a tune then...

you might start having your evo dreams and get confused again like i am right now

hahaha
Funny that you mention that because thats what I thought too.. But I've driven an EVO(500hp) with much more than $2000 on bolt ons and tunes and what not and still didnt get me to day dream about it again. It might have twice the HP as the S2k but the S2k still is twice as fun of a car to drive. Thats just me tho.

I drive quicker and faster cars on a fairly regular basis, but I have yet to find anything else that I would consider as a replacement for the S2000.

Thats just me tho.

I used to not glance twice at s2000's when I was in my "speed" days. But buying a house and growing up a bit made me realize that speed isnt everything and I then turned to the s2000 Theres just something about the s that grabs you and its hard to let it go. Ive contemplated selling it but I know I would regret it. Its a great driving experience.

agreed. Although my evo could be an absolute time attack monster and still be DD practical...i just dont think it is truly me.

cars that i feel fit my personality:

Lotus Exige/Exige S
Honda S2000
Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale
NSX (all forms)

i like raw, lightweight, loud, stiff, impractical, fun to drive, high revving, 2 door race cars.

the NSX i cant afford unless i go used and im hesitant to pay 30k for a 93 nsx, lol.
the exige i can get used with like 20k miles for around 45k, still more than i want to spend right now.
the ferrari stradale is like my dream, but way out of reach.

so it really leaves the s2000...

now the big question is...what year should i get...hmm, i had an 01 before...

and i need to find a buyer for my EVO

i have it up on evolutionm.net for 32k OBO modded or $30,500 Stock

I want to buy an evo as my dd after I finish college as a gift for a job well done =) Driving a 93 civic now... Back to the op, since you have already flipped so many times, just wait two + three months and buy an s2k while keeping the evo. It seems either way you go, you won't be happy, unless you have both. So, it'll take an extra month or two to mod both cars, at least you won't have to decide.
