The 0-60s will be close, but anywhere past that point the S2000 will continue to pull. A race between the two will likely be similar to one against a WRX or Audi TT.

Not sure if this was estimated or not, but I read in car and driver that the 0-60 is supposed to be 6.2 and a 14.5 in the quarter. Depending on where they ran, and the weather and all other crap they seem to mess up when they run, times could be faster or slower, especially if the car wasn't broke in.

My mom just got an '03 EX V6, and that er is quick and smooth. I really nice car. It is definitley faster off the line than our S2Ks. 1/4 mile though, we would be faster.
