LOL and i was just gonna come on here and share a BIG piece of my mind before choices were made!!!!!!
Anyways if you stick to your budget, with aftermarket goodies NOTHING compares to the fun factor of the go kart we call the S2000.
Literally a freaking race car man and you said it yourself FUUUN FACTOR!!!!
Although the 370 is a beast on its own... nothing will feel quite as sharp as the little Honda will..
Ohh and S2k+FI=GAME OVER

The horrible thing is I have enough money to mess with the suspension, engine (boost?) and get a nice kit for the car. OMG WHAT HAVE I DONE?!?!?!?

The guy had it as a weekend car and garaged it, the car was babied. I did my first mod today, what I plan on doing is enjoying the car until I have an itchy pocket for some mods. I already have a hardtop on my mind, mugen imo.

Great color choice I just finished reading the whole thread here and you seriously made the best choice. I had a buddys 500whp evo I drove around for a couple weeks while he had my s and the speed was just awesome but I grew tired of it and when I took possession of my s again It reminded me why I purchased the car. I did test drive a 370z touring a few weeks back and I must say it handled great and the acceleration was on point for a 6cyl motor. Although these were pluses it still had that gt feel of something that is more of a cruising car not as raw as the s. Good luck with the car and enjoy it!!

I catch myself going WOT on this car too much haha. I've gotten a bunch of compliments already so it's great. I'm just got a Rebel XS I'm learning to use so I'll be taking pictures tonight so I can finally post myself in the intro section!

I would have uploaded pics earlier, but I had way too much fun driving around!









Sorry if the pics suck, first time using a camera; Rebel XT.
