Euro Luxury or S2000, u decide..

Well earlier this year I bought an Accord Euro and around the same time one of my close friends bought a year 2000 S2000 second hand.

I love my euro. But i also love the S2000. Everything from it oozes sex appeal but then i don't think i can drive a S2000 everyday. I sometimes swap my euro with my friend for his S2000. But for sure the S2000 is cramped. The steering wheel doesn't height adjust and there is practically no room to store goods. Its bumpy and the boot is small but for sure the S2000 makes me have a huge wide grin once it revs to 9000rpms. The feeling of hair in ur wind while the vtec screams is a worthwhile experience...

But i am happy with my euro because it is comfortable, luxurious and spacious. U can be relaxed in a euro, but driving in a S2000 i feel very tense. But I agree with practicality... Whatever the decision moite, U know that both the S2000 and the Euro is both very good cars but are totally different. By the way My mate that owns the S2000 his mother owns a BMW 320i. He prefers to use his moms car....

Honda has a "cleaner" - for lack of remembering what it's actually called - that you can use to clean it up and maintain it to prevent the cloudiness effect you get with plastic screens.

Clutches stuff up in all cars, and must be replaced anyways. True they are a bit pricey compared to your average Kia (they rock!! :p), but it's an S2000. :)

looks like everyone here has same opinions, 1. sports fun or 2. practically with a nice relaxing new car.

its guna be a hard one moite!

i got a S2k, wouldnt have it any other way. Your young, only time you can have a car like this. Thats my theory.

Might be selling my euro very soon...and most likely for an s2000...(gotta love honda engines)....anyway, i'll let you know if i regret selling it...if i do, i could always buy a euro again...but that would be pretty stupid...

If you're young...i would get an s2000...i mean you gotta have a 2 seater once in a lifetime...especially a convertible/.

One thing i would like to ask....do you seem like a total jerk when friends ask you for a lift when you have someone with you already and you (having a s2k) say "sorry, my car only has two seats"??

I would tell them to walk. Unless they were a really hot chick, where you would ditch your mate and tell him to walk (best friends always understand!).

Haha! normally the person with me will already be a chic...and the person asking will also be a chic...i dun normally drive guys around...

Then what do you do? guess it's back to the bigger boobs choice huh...

No really mate, if you want performance and absolute luxury than i have to say get the euro lux manual!!! You will be stupid not to! Th s2000....Well not much luxury, it doesnt even have a clock in there but its all about that 2 litre hard reving engine and sporty drive. Not saying euro isnt sporty but s2000 is designed to go hard. The euro manual is slower than s2000 by a second and half??? correct me if i am wrong. But really if i were you i would go for the euro luxury manual!!!! Its fast as a v6 car! Luxury at the standard of mercedes and lexus! Handling is awesome!

Go for the euro manual!
I recomend it!

Really im telling you again. Euro manual is very quick, its not slow. I had a test drive on one when buying the euro but ended up getting the auto. S2000 and sex appeal??? i read a few posts above saying you can pick up in the???? what the hell??? Buy a euro manual put a body kit on there and it wont disapoint ;) I wouldnt buy a s2000 over a euro manual. Sure the s2000 is a bit quicker and convertible but the euro is a luxury sports car i guess and you cant really go for a s2000 sitting in a luxury euro. Have test drive of the manual euro, you wont be disapointed.
