You know how I voted.

The shock was finding that (at this point at least) I'm in the majority.

Power will be the reason - someday. Until then I really enjoy this car.

I've held onto it this long (bought new)... been through thick and thin... I don't think it's going anywhere. Unless someone steals it.

I voted power/performance. If I wasn't planning to convert it to a wheel-to-wheel racer, I'd seriously consider trading it for a new Z06 or a used 997 Carrera S. Unfortunately, I can't afford both.

I doubt that I will ever part with mine. I've got a great big garage, and I think the values of pristine used s2ks will stop dropping someday and start RISING! So instead of trading it in, I can just add a car to my garage.

But beyond this reason, I'll keep it because nobody has made a car that can "dance" like the s2k with more power. "Dance", yes, but with less power. "More power" yes, but can't dance. Mine will be here for a LONG time.

I'd love to keep mine for as long as I can. There are many other cars I'd love to have, but ideally, I want them all to supplement, not replace, my S2000.
