There's a difference between good attention, and bad attention.

As for pros vs cons.. the only cons besides insurance and vandalism are shrunken usability. I.e. less space for junk, less passengers (they fall into the junk category really), less worthy winter vehicle (NEEDS winter tires). The benefits outweigh the cons though. It's faster in stock form, handles better, sounds better, and is more fun to drive overall.

Only cons I've experienced:

Not great for long trips, after 4 hours I want a break
Every wannabee racer dipshit thinks he needs to race me



I don't find the modest amount of space to be a problem. If anything it makes me keep the car cleaner because I only keep things in it I absolutely need. The trunk is plenty large for me to pack for a 1.5 week business trip, just requires soft luggage.

Yeah i really dont cart people around in my car as it is so the two seats really isn't an issue. The only problem i would have is the winter drivability since the winters here aren't exactly nice. I know i would absolutely love one i just don't want anything to happen to it since i live in such a shitty ass area.

So quit "Thinking about getting an S2K" and do it. You won't be sorry. I promise.

Check the ads in the Cars for Sale sub-forum under "Member S2000 Classifieds and For Sale" forum.
