What? Basically, you are stating a reason why resale values for sports cars are not so great. People realize that the thrill and excitment is over, and the S2000, being a sports car, have serious limitation for day-to-day operations (you can parallel this with marrying a dumb blonde). That's why they dump them for cheap for a more practical car.

Just realize that switching cars is an expensive business transaction.

i felt like i would get bored with the s2 when i picked it up. everyone told me it was the most impractical dd. my other choices were evo x or sti. i love honda and i love my s2000. i think i made the best choice. and as stated before, it probably isnt the car for you..

Probably because its my daily driver.

I hate how theres absolutely no power below 6k, and in order for you to get up to speed fairly quickly you have to rev it pretty high and that can get a bit uncomfortable with my exhaust.

The suspension is just starting to get annoying, coming out of a long day of work it doesnt really help feeling every bump in the road.

All the road noise and creeks are just starting to get to me. And

I do wish sometimes I had a back seat.

So much that im considering switching over to an M3. More available power down-low and up top, back seat, much easier to live with as a daily driver.
a s2000 as a daily driver 4me would be rough because i would not like the maintenance of washing waxing etc. would not like to burn up a good car on the daily grind. with todays gas prices the am pick of my garage has been the civic-vx or the sportbike.

the s2k suspension is great, lov the feel. i usually ride the gixxer tho. loose some weight, go to the gym whatever.

there is enough power <6K for street work. and plenty of room >6K for fun.

try the s2000 w/ the top dwn, even more noise.

how much easier will your life be with a m3? bet you could not even feel a 3% betterment.
