comments from a porsche driver
 

Just wanted to let all you s2000 fanatics know that I rented one on a recent trip to Las Vegas and it was the most fun I've had in a car in a long time. If I wasn't already driving a '95 911 I would be ordering a 2002 model immediately. I had driven with a friend in his 2000 version but he has never taken the car over 5000 rpm. What a waste. Just like driving an Accord with handling. Great interior and very comfortable. The look is just aggressive enough imho.
Waiting for spring...

Thanks for the honest, objective comments!! :)

wanna trade?:)

Did you just hear that noise?
That was me screaming in pain at the mere thought of owning a S2000 and never getting up into VTEC. :eek: :eek: :( :eek: :eek:

Honestly, if I could find a dealer that would offer me fair tradein value for my 911 I would consider trading for a 2002 model. Note that I said consider. It would be a tough call. Obviously I was very impressed with the s2000

nice to hear a good review from someone who owns a 911

I've said, since the first day of owning the car, that I would only trade the car in for a Ferrari 355. Anything else, no. (and I don't want to hear any "You could see such and such car and buy 2 S2000"). The point is, I do not feel there is a better car out there and although I would never pay retail for a Ferrari, it would take a straight swap on a 355 for me to give it up. (The Z06 is a damned nice car, but they're big, use up tires, gas and don't come as a convertible)

That said, I'm considering selling the Stook for something that isn't a replacement. :)

You are entitled to your opinion no matter how misdirected it might be. If someone would give me a 355 for a s2000 I would sell the Ferrari then buy a 911 for myself and a couple of new s2000 in different colours to suit my moods.:D
Btw on the aforementioned trip to Las Vegas I also drove a C5. A big hunk of plastic that goes very fast in a straight line. It got around the corners fast enough but I never felt like I was in control. The s2000 felt like a fine surgical instrument and much more enjoyable to drive.
You would tire of the 355...imho

what are you thinking of getting?
