I miss my FX especially today -- getting back from a brutal trip from South Carolina.

You own both as well I only know of one other person who has both cars?

The best part I like is when I give facts about both cars in any 350Z vs S2000 thread and no one can really say anything to me, because I am not bias to either one.
Yes, I do.

I know what you mean.

I got rid of a 1994 530i for the S2000 and have not regretted it for a minute.

When I sold my 1988 Mustang GT Conv. for the BMW I definitely went through withdrawal.

Giving up the Prelude for the Lightning, I missed the low car payments and cheap gas fills. But the torque alone made that ok.

Going from the Lightning to the S2000, I still missed the kick-in-the-arse torque but the truth was the S2000 was almost as fast and cheaper to run day-to-day. But I still missed the feeling of rolling up to a light in a relatively decent sized truck and laying a smack down with the S/C screaming and exhaust blasting the car to my right.

Going from the S2000 to a 4Runner was pretty depressing. But when it snows, I'll be all smiles, and of course the reason I gave up the S - I'm moving into my first house in August.
