haha... ugly is 24/7 I like that, Russ.

Reminds me of the statement attributed to Winston Churchill. Supposedly he was being rebuked for being drunk and his reply was something like"Madam - I may be drunk now, but I'll be sober in the morning. You, however will still be just as ugly tomorrow" Dunno if that really happened or not, but it still makes me smile.

If you put a gun to my head and made me buy a 4-door today for under 35K I'm sure I would buy an STi.

I don't think that the STi and EVO are ugly- they're just a tad too agressive for me personally. Don't get me wrong, I think they look cool, I just don't want to drive around in one all of the time.

But if the S2k was 140 HP (like a Miata) I think I would still be in an RSX-S, no contest. It ain't necessarily a beauty, but it's a great overall package.

Do I need a 4-Door-Hard-Topped-Grocery-Getter?


NO, I DON'T


I'll keep my S2000, thanks for asking though.

Actually, the original question makes it too easy. Afterall, this is an S2000 board.

I think a better question is: Would you want to drive a Ferrari Modena Convertible with the S2000 engine or to drive the S2000 with the Modena engine?
