yep you guys guessed it. it's a honda s2000 with a garret turbo bolt on and a tanabe medallion touring exhaust. As much as i love this car there is something floating around in the back of my mind. 350Z... with a bolt on supercharger and these choices are bugging me so bad. The s2000 looks better and feels better to drive but the 350z is in your face and aggressive. the supercharger bites hard and every time i nail the throttle the sound u get is amazing. With all of this said my buddy text me in the middle of typing this and is selling his 2001 turbo mr2 with the porsche carrera conversion....
I'm Screwed...
Best, Robb

So you're still on the line or having second thoughts as for what you're going to drive?

i keep pressing for the s2000 because i drove across Pa and i didn't have a back ache, my legs didn't cramp up, the road noise was still at a minimum, and there really is sooooo much space. my buddy mr2, i've road in it, i've driven it countless times and it's fun for 20 miles and then u look at what u can carry and there is no room at all. and for the 350z, i just like that damn supercharger sound lol. my dad use to have a saleen supercharged mustang and all i remember about that car was the sound. it was amazing

Yeah, you definitely want something that is comfortable to drive in for long periods of time. I've found that the Volvo's seats are by far the most comfortable seats I have ever sat in. Even after sitting in countless numbers of Audi's, BMW's and Porsche's.

I prefer the look of the Z32 (90-96 300zx) over the 350 and with 2 big turbos and minor upgrades they are much faster than a SC'd 350.

yeah and i respect the 300zx so much especially when i owned one but i'm looking for a newer car that i can depend on. something that is 2000+. although i do miss drifting the 300 lol

I hear that man. 300zx and reliable are not usually in the same sentence lol.

S2000 Turbo vs 350Z Lighter More Nimble Better Gear box Huge Red line Bummer the model near the end of it's run through : (

ok, the first thing i'm going to do to the s2k is to weld up a removable honda cbr carbon fiber exhaust to it to make it sound like a formula 1 car.

They gave away the blue camo one. The kid that won it out in Utah said it scared the crap out of him driving it on the street : ) He sold it a few weeks later.
