i went back and forth for months and months trying to figure out Evo or S2k..test drove several of both, loved both. But what it came down to was sedan thats fast as shit, or drop top like i'd wanted for a while. I knew a couple people with wrx's and evo's...but something about the S is amazing. Get a beater for the snow and get another S!!!!!!!!

option 2: get an older (03) evo and an older S2k for the same price as a new one of either. Then you can enjoy those top down days or you could enjoy boost/AWD when that sounds good. If you're willing to get used cars that is.

I can't say I regret my decision one bit..LOVE IT!

 

Hey, not a bad idea at all just wish i had the money for both

 

i'd have both if i had the money but i dont. so i stick with my s2000. i have to be content stealing drives from my buddy's evo IX and he has to be content stealing drives from my ap2. its a mutual thing

 

These guys dont know what they are talking about. Both have their bonuses. Dude, you can pick up an 01 s2k for like 14k. I did.

 

YEAH, I HAD A BIG LIST TOO, BUT DAMN MOST OF MY LIST WAS BOOTY CARS 91 -SENTRA SE-R, 94-SENTRA SE-R, 98-INTEGRA TYPER, 91-240 SX, 04-CIVIC HX, 91-CIVIC HX OR DX, 94-INTEGRA LS, 96-INTEGRA GSR, 92-ACCORD, 99-CIVIC SI AND MY BEAUTIFUL AND CURRENT 00-S2000 I THINK THATS IT...

 

Hey .MM i think you have a PM from me. the site has been acting weird lately

 

how about a boosted s2k?

more rwhp and of course, the handling

 

I live in NH too and I drive an SC AP2, it sux putting it away and driving a beater for the winter but it is sooo worth it when there is no snow on the ground. I wouldn't trade it for anything ( in its class that is.....)

 

i cant afford an EVO and an S2K, unless i pay off my evo.

And if i sell mine to buy a used older evo and an s2k, i wont be able to afford to mod either after i pay the bills.

im leaning towards another s2k.

i cant have 2 cars that are easily modded, because ill be even less satisfied.

i only buy top of the line parts and i need to dedicate that to one car only.

wow, talk about a similar situation...

i grew up right outside of nashua (over the ma boarder though) i went through a few cars and eventually in 03 bought an evo when it originally came to the states. i drove the hell out of that car, i went through hell and back in it as well, but i still loved every second. the great thing about the evo was that i drove it all year, so i didnt have to bother getting a beater for the winter.... well thats when it ran... thats another story

like i said i loved the car, it handled great, its is probably the best car as far as responding to minor modification, it looks great (to me), has the extra space, and is all around fun.

from there i plunged myself into a project car as i did not want to have to deal with a highly modified daily driver anymore, even though i ended up building another highly modded dd it was a 240 that i dumped every cent of what i sold my evo for into... hell it even got me a magazine feature, but it was unbearable to drive every day and i couldnt afford two insurances.

i then when to an s2k... now i had been driving hondas for some time before my evo and had always wanted one. i had driven quite a few before and knew that i wanted to get one, even though i did consider getting another evo while i was looking to purchase an s2k. as you can see i ended up with an s2k and haved loved every chance i have gotten to drive it thus far. the handling is more responsive and fun, the car overall is much more fun to drive. as it sits it feels faster than it actually is due to its great balance and handling. the only downsides were that i really did not want to bother driving it in the winter (got a beater), it has a lot less room (didnt matter much to me), and doesnt respond nearly as well to modification as a boosted 4g does.

with all that being said, and being through tons of busted cars and really fun cars as well, i wouldnt give my s2 for an evo at the moment. im happy where i am, i dont need all that power i was making with my evo or nissan, all it did was get me in trouble and debt the s2k is a more raw fun car, that has yet to bring me heartache since ive owned it... i guess ive just broken too many things on too many cars to put that one out

on a side note ive probably seen you around the area, my evo was silver with a cf wingless trunk and some work emotion wheels, and the nissan was grey with gold volk te37's, good to see another local on here
