Its nice to get an accord with a performance oackage but its still justa grocery getter in my opinion. As far as the s2000 goes i came very close to putting down a deposit on one because of its one unique quality. 9000 rpm\'s straight from the factory but the torque is comparable to a volkwagon beetle j/k but tis still weak in that department. I drove corvettes, mustangs, all things dodge (never did get a viper though), eclipses, lasers, camaros, a gmc cyclone and a gmc typhoon. ( the cyclone would literally kill anything that honda and just about every other manufacturer ever put out nsx, s2000 and vette included) and a few porsches.
I am sorry but these striped coffee can mufflered bumble bee sounding cars make my stomach churn, and I think anyone that is thinking of investing a ton of money in one should just save it and buy a real sports car because in the end you just can\'t polish a terd.
I guess in the end it depends on what you prefer... big muscle cars with loads of torque or a sophisticated racing experience that can pull up to 9000 rpm\'s. Personally I prefer the latter - manuel stick is a must of course - and you\'ll get a helluva nice kick maxing those babies out...
