Default how good is the s2000 and how long does it last? should i get one

i have had an acura integera vtec 96 for about 6 years. i have fixed it up and modified it and its pretty fast. I want to get a new car but is the s2000 a good car to buy. i have heard man ypros and cona about this car and i was just wondering if the car has some acceleration. the 0-60 times are almost the same as a gsx. I was just wondering from a s2000 owner how you enjoy the ride and if the weak low end torque can be a match for the v6's out there.

There is no acceleration at all, no torque at all. V6 is better

The S2K sucks! Don't get it. The S2K has no torque.....
You would get smoked by GSX, Mustang GT "V8", Hyundai Tiburon "V6" and modded integra Vtec with a 4' rear spoiler.

Get the Mustang GT! It FITS you! It is V6, must be quick! YEAH!

Vuitton432, you really would be happier with a V6 or 8. You seem more impressed with 1/4 mile times than the enjoyment and appreciation of a true sports car. I've said it many times, the S2000 is a roadster, not a dragster.
