It will be interesting to see a race between Z06-KILLR's S2000 (who never lost to 240 hp version yet as he claims) and steve c (who puts at least couple of car lengths up to 100 against S2000s). I would say it will probably come down to driver skill with a bit of advantage to M. Thus, if I have to put my money, I would put it on steve c's M.

I guess it's almost like never ending dispute.

S52 M Vs S2000
S54 M Vs SC/TC S2000

Let me get this straight, your saying the Z3 is faster than the S2000, HAAAAA HAAAAA HAAAA HAAAAA HAAAA HAAAA HAAAAA
That's a good one!
I had to debate for a few moments whether this post even merits a response ... but did you not notice the M part in the Z3 -- and yes they are.

LOL I see the two S2k bigots can't accept reality. Ask any of the more knowledgable S2k owners here -- they will admit the M is quicker 9/10 times.

Being that I own one of each I am not threatened by the fact that one is quicker than the other and can speak the truth -- but hey if you want to lie to yourself and pretend that things are the other way around, fine by me, you're not hurting anyone else.

The 240 HP M motors have good upside potential. You can get an extra 30-40 HP from them without too much dollars/effort.

Right, these words from the same person who wrote above:

Hey it's my favorite prick in the hole world Mr C. How's your arrogant, too cool for school S2000 guru ass doing. Still bashing fellow S2000 owners. Keep up the crappy work!
It would appear you are the touchy one, I am simply stating factual information based on my own experience owning both cars.

(time slip inside)

You might say... "Hey! S2000 ran 13.6 too!".... of course, you can also find it on the same
forum here..

Btw, I do not agree with what the thread starter say... stock TT
will not touch the S2000...
BUT, it should be very very easy to get more power out of TT...
One chip (~$500) and 20mins later TT owner should instantly
have another 50hp to play with...
