Definitely get the S2000.

You are young dude living in Florida. Unless you have to haul around a bunch of crap all the time, you dont need a big trunk or rear seats. The GS is a very nice car but the S2000 would suit you better.

There is a time table for each color, so this sounds believable to me. You might wanna check on it again anyway.

And now you've got three months to sell the GS

my only concern for you is, if you lease it and put 60 mi/day on weekdays only... How many weeks in a school year???
It's the mileage that's going to eat you up if you lease. Think about it, what are you going to do on a weekend?
Maybe you should buy a used S pre 02 for sub 20K and rack up the miles and then switch to 04 or 05 when you're done w/ school. The resale of your S shouldn't be that bad and besides, w/ the top down weather, it wouldn't matter what year your S will be to start.

My 2 cents...

sell your car and buy a used for sub20K, not lease used.
then sell it after 3-5 years for about $15K and buy new/lease new.
Sorry, that's what I meant to say.

GS 400 is a "Toyota" S2000 is a "Honda"...need I say more. Why would you even compare a "Old Folks" sedan with a "sportscar"? If you are in the market for a sportscar that is a sportscar then the S2K will please you.
