If you were to trade in your S2000....

Ghostface · 11-12-2007, 01:18 AM

if you could trade your s2000 for any car (reasonable range please lol no lambos and crap) what would it be?

ie: evo X, new GT-R, 1998 Supra, old/new sti, mustang, boxer, etc.

if i had to pick something other then S2000, it would be either the new FT-HS by toyota or 97-98 Twin turbo supra!

controller · 11-12-2007, 06:22 AM

Porsche Boxster. I'd still be looking for one.

Java Junky · 11-12-2007, 07:07 AM

1955 Ford Thunderbird, no continental kit, possibly a '53 'Vette.
I'd probably spend as much time washin' n' waxin' one'a them as most folks do with their Stewies.

bobby2002S2K · 11-12-2007, 07:33 AM

Supra, or a new STI.

jagg · 11-12-2007, 09:54 AM

1966 Ford Fairlane 500 xl.

yeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaa!

Mugen Civic (thinking seriously about buying one but definitely NOT trading the S for it)

DJJSR · 11-12-2007, 02:36 PM

396 or 427 Nova

gomarlins3 · 11-12-2007, 02:50 PM

Cayman S.

Kalm_Traveler · 11-12-2007, 09:49 PM

If I were to trade in my S2k....in all honesty the only car that I would outrightly replace it with is.... Another Suzuka Blue-metallic 02 with less mileage.

There are other cars that I want to own, but none "instead of" Stewwie. he's the only car that can fit his niche in my driving pleasure.

Cars that I would ALSO like to own would be a 2006 Subari Impreza STi with no options, a 1988 Honda Civic DX sedan with a nicely built K-series engine but stock look and sound; and a 1988 Honda Prelude 2.0Si 4WS modified with 6" more headroom and an H22 (again stock looking and sounding).

Stewwie will always be my fun joyride car, the Subaru would be for winter, Civic would be DD, and Prelude....well.... I'll always have a special place for the 3rd gens. Mechanical 4-wheel steering is just too unique to live without

s2kx2 · 11-12-2007, 10:22 PM

At the moment there is not one car within the criteria stated that would induce me to part with either one of my S2000s. The ONLY way I would consider it is if we already had our 3rd S2000 (a Black CR) and someone offered me a Zanardi Edition NSX. Even then It would be hard. I mean I plan to keep these till all I can do is sit in them in a pair of Depends and drool !

Java Junky · 11-12-2007, 10:27 PM

There's alot ta be said for sittin' in Stewie in your Depends ('Sounds strangely like a Maidenform ad) jus' droolin' ta beat the band.

Scooter · 11-13-2007, 12:13 AM

They opened up a Lambo dealership here a couple of years ago and I thought nothing of it. Last week, however, I was cruising out on the beltway and came up on one of them. For the first time, I knew I couldn't take him - and thought that in a later life I might want one of those...

Scooter · 11-13-2007, 12:17 AM

But in my normal life, this is the best car I've ever had - I don't think twice about Roush 'stangs or 350Zs or carreras or stingrays - I just tap the pedal and say "goodbye"... Then when I'm close to home off the freeways I force a little slide and that "plastered smile" is back in full force!

Java Junky · 11-13-2007, 12:25 AM

A Lambo eh? Yeah, there'z some real eye-candy out there.

johnmcs1 · 11-13-2007, 12:01 PM

Only other cars I'd be interested in is a 3.2 manual NSX (coupe not the targa) or a BMW M3 E46. (again a coupe in manual)

s2000gb · 11-14-2007, 08:56 AM

It would have to be an NSX with a targa or a Toyota supra TT.

Lotus Elise or Exige S, a badass handling car for the track.

wasabiman · 11-14-2007, 08:36 PM

NSX, 2006 M3, or 2008 335ci

s2000COP · 11-14-2007, 11:13 PM

Infinity G35X or Mazdaspeed6. Did Mazda stop making those?

Scooter · 11-14-2007, 11:53 PM

Well, I did trade in my stewie... For a newer one!

Saved me a bundle by doing it just in time: after the deal was done I was watching a football game in the waiting zone with the tradein guy (also the dealer's son) and asked him how much I would have lost if I waited until next year (my plan thwarted by my wonderful wife) to trade in - going from 59.5K to around 75K mileage. He immediately shot back "about $10,000 - because I can get this one Honda Certified now and couldn't then". Whee!

I love it that my wife talked me into trading it in...

RevvinAllDay · 11-16-2007, 09:46 PM

yeah i'd say a gti.....who wants mine? haha
