Yeah only due to driver error, or roadster vs. roadster. Other than that, i dont know what the hell you have been watching.

 

i second that emotion, its usually the other way around, no torque, no fun

 

X2. One word: Tsukaba.

 

Man, the S sure gets under the skin of Z owners. I had my '03 S for four years and it's a great car and beautifully engineered. You have to be a good driver to get the most out of it. It sure is quick for a car with "no torque."
The Z is a different beast all together and I'm enjoying the hell out of my '07 and I have no regrets that I traded the S for it. If I had the money to do it, I would have loved to have both. The Honda always gets bashed here and for no really good reasons. Honda made the most out of a naturally aspirated 2.0 liter engine and there's no doubt that is has one of the best production trannies on the market. It's a single purpose vehicle and nails the purpose very well. I like the Z for different reasons. One of the main reasons is that it's always fast and it feels fast! It's a lot more comfortable and has much better toys included. Credit to Nissan for substantially upgrading the Z while Honda let the S get old. Lastly, the Z is a much better daily driver that does many things very well.

 

actually whenever a car magazine compares two cars, they ALWAYS compare the Miata and S2000, they basically are the same thing whether you like it or not. oh and z isn't just sexier, it's faster

 

ive owned both as well guys love the z girls love the s

 

test drove the S and it was too small for me :/ plus someone said "nice Miata" while i was test driving it jk

 

Never said that I didn't like the Z. The S2K is a different type of experience which I wouldn't mind having again. Also...I had an Evo prior to the Z and I had the S2K two cars ago.

 

So basically you're telling me that you trust the opinion of others over personal experience? They compare them for an obvious reason, they are both Roadsters. When they get into performance...thats where the similarities end. It's pretty obivious you haven't driven either... Whatever man...no point in arguing this.

 

Comparing both cars. Stock vs Stock its a slow car but has a lot of potential. The limit that u can take the s2k motor is a lot more than the Z. its a really fast car for being a 4 banger. it keeps up with the Z in the twisties, dont know about in the straight line.

 

what stop ya

You can go back anytime if that is really what you want!

 

S2k is just not my thing... I'm glad I went with the Z instead.

 

Well, like I said...if given the right opportunity (i.e. finding an insane deal on one). I've had one already and wouldn't want it as a primary car...but when I am in a position to have a 2nd play car...I'll be all over it.

 

s2k's are really fun cars spunky too!

 

Thats unless he buys the Honda S2000 CR, those come with hard tops but has no soft tops built in.

 

S2k..over the z...man you gotta be kiddin me...too many negative to list about the s2k..you'll regret it...Z for life...

 

Man, every time I see your avitar I can't stop laughing.

 

Well, I have never test driven one so i cant really have an opinion on them...but i did race one light to light...i am stock, it had an exhaust system (it was aparent becuase of the noise). anyways...it was about a steady 1 1/2 car lengths the whole way till i dropped 4th and took off. (long distance beteen lights) well when they pulled up to the light...the dude rolled his window down and asked me if it was a fairlady Z. I said naw. but s2k's do look good.

 

hard top or not, still fugly IMO. The most common word I here about my car is "Beautiful"

 

Negative equity sux. I owed 18k on my Z when I went to trade it in for the FX35, the dealership only wanted to give me 13k for my Z! I was 5K upside down, and that 5k would have been added to the 22K price of the FX35. Be careful and dont get suckered in! Try to sell privatley
