Default Which car would you pick for a regular daily driver?

So recently we had the chance to acquire another GPW s2000 so now my wife won't fight over the keys with me (she had a black and red one prior)....

With her longer commute she usually takes the hybrid but Fridays is our tradition to take out the "fun" cars

Dilemmas....

N/A or Boosted?
OEM vs. CR lip
MPG vs. Power
Stock vs. Modded

What would you guys prefer to drive?

That's an enviable dilemma to have.

OEM > Everything. In my opinion.

Even more so if you are planning on DD.

If it's the 2009 that you list in your sig then I would keep it stock. You essentially have the best color combo, best year/pinnacle of the S2000 already. At least it drive it for a while before you decide to mod it.

Congrats!

Left - the modded, more powerful car should come out when it can be enjoyed.

I'd definitely keep the engine close to stock for daily driving, both for mpg and especially reliability.

I'd switch that up to.

My question would be: Why drive anything that's not fun?
