Default Thinking about selling my S2000 to get an NSX?

My girlfriend really likes my car. She's a little scared of the real wheel drive but i don't think she needs to worry about that since she doesn't drive like an idiot like me. But I digress.... Back to topic. I've been seeing some reasonably priced NSXs on the internet. I wanted opinions on what to do. I've always loved them and I think with a few mods, it will be even hotter then my s2k right now. I have been thinking about MY96(3.0L 5speed) or bucking up for the MY97(3.2L 6speed).

What does the S2000 offer that the NSX doesn't and visa-versa(spelling?)?

You're such a Dbag alex. I already saw that thread. At this juncture I am not prepared to drop a $100K+ on an nsx. But I appreciate your consideration of me having the ability to purchase such a car and then have it brought over to america and then I would be able to drive a right hand car(when I already have enough trouble driving a right hand one).

Um, I was just joking. If you're seriously offended, I'm sorry. Or if you were being playfully sarcastic in that last response, then here's a smiley for ya:

Either a or a . I can't decide yet.

The NSX will not offer a convertable which to me is the main reason for purchasing it, and IMO does not have a power difference to justify the price increase it has. If I were going to trade the S for a car in that price range I would look for a Viper. but to each his own. Also everything you buy for the NSX will be more expensive, be it OEM parts or aftermarket parts. Also if you get one that old, there will most likely be no warranty...But whatever you deciede, good luck

My Mobil 1 Synthetic Oil Change is only $58.00 on my 2000 NSX-Targa, unlike my friends 2000 Porsche Carerra which is $250.00 a visit. Oil change on my S2000 is $46.00 on Mobil 1 as well.
