Just sold a like-new 01 s2k. I loved that car, and still do. It lives in Houston now.
Classic lines, great motor, rifle bolt shifter, super-fast automatic top, bullet proof performance over the 7 years I had it.


However after Level 1 at Spring Mountain in an 08/ls3/z51/NPP, there was nothing to do but sell the s2k, and buy a vette. The sound of the LS3 with open NPP's was as intoxicating as 9k rpms, when I heard the f20c for the first time. It's like falling in love all over again.

My friend owns an S2000. Its the worst car I ever drove in my entire life. Rides like a wooden go cart and you cant even see out the tiny rear window. I cant believe Honda created such a POS and I love Hondas! The S2000 is TRASH!

The Vette is a superb machine and my own personal #1 choice but.... there are other great cars out there and the S2000 is one of them. I had one of the first models and it was a great car. All these cars have different attributes and that variety is what they call "the spice of life"! Just my $.02 -

I only wish I could fit in one... I like the purity of it and the fact that it's a Honda.. but would never give up my C6 for one..
