Default Why I think my s2k is the best...

Let me list the ways:

1. I've wanted it for a long time.
2. It's manual (I've almost only driven automatic until now).
3. It's damn right fun.
4. It's so easily modifiable.
5. I'm damn pleased over my new Skunk2 exhaust.
6. I can't wait to see what I else I can do to this car.
7. I'm in love with my VTEC wish I was just a tad bit older to understand it when I had my NSX.

*EDIT* Why my S2k is the best car I've ever owned.

Since you have had both now I would be interested in hearing how you would compare the NSX and the S2000 - drivability, comfort. The NSX is my next purchase but I won't be getting rid of the S2000.

I think the OP meant "it is the best car I've owned"

I wouldn't say it's easily modified though. The engine is already squeezed out about as much as you can N/A and the suspension is also near perfect.

I'm still kind of confused about this. So when he was younger he had an NSX? I always thought it was the other way around. When you get older to afford a NSX??..lol

*Shakes head*

1. I meant that it's the best car I ever owned. Not that my car's better than any others. Sorry about that confusion.

2. My family loves cars. My Dad actually got me the NSX for my 16th birthday. He always wanted it and used me as an excuse to get one basically. Whatever, I benefited from it. (I learned how to drive on a 96 Porsche Carrera, my sister has a 98 Supra and we just sold a 2005 SLK. We have a 68 Shelby Mustang in the garage and I technically learned stick on the 69 Shelby that we had before.)

3. @HS2k.RLS- I had the NSX almost 10 years ago (unbelievably!). From what I remember and from what I can collect from my family, the NSX is a smooth ride. I don't remember much otherwise but I can tell you that it handles corners a hell of a lot better then the S2k (but that's a given). It's also an eye catcher. I was stopped constantly because of it's more of a rare car. I'll never forget that I had a crowd gathered around it one day because I parked in a touristy area of LA. Hahaha. Other than that, it was a great, fast car. I would get one again but I wouldn't give up my S2k either so I think you're doing the smart thing. ;-) If you have any specific questions please don't hesitate to ask. I'll try to answer the best I can.
