Before and After
This is my car before:
And my car after:
OTD prices: STi ~$31,197 s2000 ~$29,663
I can honestly say that the s2000 has more sex appeal and I love the high reving vtec engine ( I had an integra gsr before). The STi is A LOT stronger and pulls harder than the s2000. I've race my bro's s2000 and pulled away from him pretty easy...and we were going above 85 mph. The enormous wing on the STi is ludacris to look at but at speed inxs of 85 mph, it felt really planted to the ground. I took the car up to 120 mph and didn't even noticed it b/c it didn't shake or rattle as much as the s2000.
The steering radius of the s2000 is very impressive. The STi felt like a truck turning but it is very planted and felt more secure going into a turn than the s2000. Anyways, I felt like I've made the right decision but I will cetainly miss the boost of the STi. Oh yeh, that is my bro's MY02 GPW.

I've had my S2000 north of 135MPH and it felt like I was sitting on my sofa.
Damn, I've done counless laps at Summit Point running it up to 120+ mph and the car felt great.
Perhaps a driving school?

? The S2k at 120+ is darty and dangerous.
I've had mine at 120+ lots of times....can't recall it feeling "darty". To the contrary, I was amazed by how smooth and controlled it felt...

Also, did you buy it out of state or is the OTD price with taxes, title, and registration?
