Default 01 S2K -> 350Z Track -> 05 S2K

Just wanted to say hi. I just picked up 05 Rio Yellow S2k. I had a Silverstone S2k back in 2001, had it for two years. I sold that and got Track model 350Z, drove it for two years, and sold it a week ago. My Z was Turbo chraged and it was fun car... BUT, I missed the handling and top down driving of S2K. So two days ago I got my self a another one! Going fast on the straight was fun for a bit, but nothing beats top down, midnight driving through the twisties. I am so happy to be back on my S.

Yeah, it looks horrible with the top up. At least the S looks good with the top up or down, preferably down

Feels like a huge weight reduction doesn't it? No more sloppy handling for you sir.

I am having so much more fun in this car then the Z. If anything this tells you that more HP does not always equal more fun. And I think my stock S handles better then my old Z with Tein FLEX. Don't get me wrong, the Z was a great car. But I just think S2000 is better car for people who love to drive. Z is more main stream I would say, and although it is good enough for most people it leaves something to be desired by true drivers. That's just my .02.
