Re: s2000 or 350z

2.0 s2000 for 18-20 G's on autotrader.com plus 4 G's for supercharger= 320 HP at the crank for under 25 G's. Classic race style and better suspension already included. I like 350Z, just think s2000 is better.

Re: s2000 or 350z

The S2000 is way better
1. S2000 looks way better
2.S2000 is faster on track.
3. S2000 has better traction.
4. S2000 has better build quality and is more relible.
5. 350Z has a crappy motor that nissan stole out of a piece of crap french car.
6.S2000 makes way more horsepower per liter.
7.S2000 sounds a lot better.

I chose the s2000 over the 350z. Haven't regretted my decision since.

Re: s2000 or 350z

S2000 is an "Initial D" car and 350z is not.

Re: s2000 or 350z

Well, being a licensed SCCA instructor and having driven both on the track, I have to go with the 350Z. More predictable and flatter torque curve and more potential to make more power in the aftermarket. But, most of you ricers will never understand that....

Re: s2000 or 350z

I was undecided between the 350 and G35 for 2 months and ended up with an S2000. For me it was comfort and the SUPER slick shifter that sold me on the s2k. Both sound good, but I do prefer the 350's exhaust note. The Z is more torquey, but I was pleasantly surprised by the torque of the 2.2l s2k (and I've been driving a 300+ft-lb GTP for 2 years). But in the end, the Z was uncomfortable to drive, lacked usable storage, and the sound system sucked bad. The s2k just fit me and the fact that it is convertible is a bonus at the same price. Plus, there's Honda's reputation vs. the 2003 Z that I drove that was a rattle trap and had some nasty driveline noises. I could go on, but those are the main points

Predictability is not always a good thing. If you wanted predictability, you would have been driving something FWD. Some of you wannabe tuners don't understand that more power does not necessarily equate to being better.

For fun factor, Honda S2000 is perfect pick, 240 hps for that little car? that's not a joke guys, S2000 is fun, I would pick that. As for the 350Z, if I could pick between 350Z or Infiniti G35, Infiniti G35 all the way. 350Z is a sport type, G35 is more of luxury type, G35 looks nicer.

congrats on not contributing much to the topic, dumbass.

anyways, its a total coin-toss in my case, either one would do and perform very similar. the s2k is a much lighter car and doesnt respond well to mods but being a light car, doesnt need big numbers to perform either. the 350 has displacement and has a lot of room for growth, which is a plus because the car is a bit heavy for the numbers it boasts. styling for both are so-so but can look alot better with a kit which is a toss-up. i like the interor of the Z better but that doesnt mean anything to me though in comparing the two. the Z is a more conventional car but then again, who buys sportcars for conventionality. like i said, either or is fine because performance is very much alike.

Re: s2000 or 350z

Alright if you want to know which car is better go out and drive both of them..the SK will be better for some people whereas the 350Z will be better for others...
