dude with all that 300hp worth of mods your car is still just a boring SAAB 5-door...

no one wants it

[gonshik]

Wow your a Saab Whore...got ya, so that mean's there is no reason to argue with you due to the fact that you will be ignorant!

And plus, your Saab will roll over before an s2k can even get on 2 wheel's...so please...stop trying to make your saloon look good..

And you said you don't need to brag?

Guess what your doing?...bragging...and your trying to prove things that have no meaning...like I care that you have saab's...

Their still crappy 4-door POS's.

And my S cost me 8k...so it's not expensive

Black is the worse colour in the pre-face ep3 IMO. Red and silver for the win

[RoyZeed]

haha Vicky you little liar 0-62 in 6,8 woulden't think so moore like 6,2 or less depending on driver.

clutch is wear and tear? only if someone's clutch meet is atrocious....

[MaddDogg81]

Hondas are reliable. I have a 2002 Acura RSX which has the sam engine as a Civic Type-R It's been reliable, no engine problems and it's turbocharged. Just regular wear and tear like brakes and the clutch.

fake

@linn1000 Fair enough although I think the torque argument has been done to death. In the powerband the S2000 goes very well - whether or not you like that style of driving is a personal preference. I don't think there's any comparison to a 997 S either but then as you pointed out moneywise that's a completely different kettle of fish.

[gazboselectamo]

@linn1000 You must have bought some pretty awful examples. The S2000 broke down too?

[gazboselectamo]

Couple of big factors going against the S2000 here. FWD cars are always easier to drive on the limit in wet conditions like this. Secondly this is a 1st gen S2000 with the smaller 16" wheel/tyre combo, just 205F and 225R. The 17" combo of 215/245 gives significantly more grip especially at the rear end.

when idiots drive s2000 thats so happens that it lost...

@Vesuvio360 sold my 2004 sti ppp for the same reason 60pounds a week on fuel just cudnt do it,so got my self a 2005 ep3 prem edition and so far no regrets or tho i miss the torque of my scooby i had 330ft/lbs of it..
