I don't agree with that. Some of you might think that I am saying this because I own a Z, but i honestly can't say I think that is true at all. Again, even in the turns, I think it will come down to the driver. With the coupe at least.
"For the record SHIRI, I really don't care if anyone is faster than I am... I seriously don't. I can't drive around worrying about who'd hand me my ass and spend all of my $$$ into upping the power and such. The faster car isn't necessarily the better car. By what you seem to be implying, we should all ditch our S2000's and trade them in for the 350Z's. I've driven both, I like the S much better... IMO, it's closer to having total balanced performance. "
This is well said, opinions are opinions but I agree, who care so long as you love your car. But from what I get from him is not that you shoudl all ditch your s2k's for Z's, but for SRT-4's or Camaro SS's or something.

You don't think the S was fun to drive? Shesh, I think it is the most fun car I have ever drivin. More fun then all the C5's, M3's, Camaros and Trans Am's, S4's, WRX's, and the list goes on. And oh yeah, in some aspects, more fun then my very own Z.
NOTE : HAHA, after reading all of my posts it may make it looks like I regretgetting myZand should have gotten an S. Trust me, I'm not regreting it and I am VERY happywith my purchase. Got the car for a whole bunch of other reasons.
It's just that I have been obsessed with the S for as long as I could tell, well, since I was a member here which if you look was quite some time ago. So I just know what a great car it is and just backing it up a little.

Guys there is no use debating this b/c one of two things happens when you argue with morons...
1) you get frustrated and leave
2) you dumb down to their level and start agreeing with them.
Shiri you don't own an S and driving it for a day or test drive in no way shape or form constitutes knowing how to drive it properly. Many owners, including myself, have noted that it takes a while to really KNOW how to get the most out of the car. I've raced Z's. IMO, its a driver's race. Some guys I've lost too and others got walked. If you don't like car, fine....then stay the hell outta here and don't come online stirring up shit. Buy the Z and go out and try to smoke as many S200s as you can, but coming onto an s2000 owners forum and talking shit is downright stupid as well immature.
