Prelude to s2000?
Hi I'm a new member. After searching the forums and google and comparing the specs of both a 2000 honda prelude and a ap2 s2000 I have some questions. I fit quite well in the prelude I currently drive. Any previous prelude owners that can share some info on the comfort and size comparisons of a s2000. I am a big guy at 6'1 and a half mostly torso with short legs will the s2000 make a decent daily driver. If so I should have enough money to purchase one in 6-10 months. My other options are a 2003 vette. Your answers will be greatly appreciated.

I had a 90' Prelude with a H22A4 before my bought my s2k 5 months ago & I do miss it, that thing was more fun to drive than my S (mostly because of the torque & all wheel steering) but I don't regret it. I fit comfortably in both but I'm only 5'7". Only problem is cargo space. You can get seat rails that will make you sit lower if you need.

I don't have an s2k yet either and I currently drive a 97 prelude. The first drive of an ap2 was a little disappointing honestly. I expected just a bit more go from the engine and The interior felt tight. After my last test drive of a 2003 s2 (4th s2 driven), I think I am totally used to the snugness compared to the prelude. I am 6'2", 160lbs and I feel like I have plenty of head room although entering and exiting the car can be just a little bit of a pain. I also have to say that the s2 feels sharp and precise if not a little bit more "raw". The prelude has the low end torque and the space to be a good cruiser, but feels like a barge after the s2000. Over all, it is a much better car and I think you will definitely enjoy it. Welcome and good luck finding one.

There is actually tons of headroom with the top up in the S2000, if that's what you're mostly concerned about. If you have a tall torso you might have to duck a bit to watch for the green light at a stoplight, but you should be comfortable enough.
