S2000 to an Evo8
I had an 03 S2k and went from it to my Evo. I still miss my S2k dearly and would LOVE to have another, but I just need more room. My Evo is 100000 times faster than my S2k, but that damn car still has me dreaming about it. It is def. the pinnacle of the driving experience for a $30k car.

to the way the Evo8 drives? I feel like I'm driving a tractor trailer, meaning
the seating position and the location of the pedals.

And I would like to add, that from a dig, an Evo is definitly faster, but do enough races and the Evo will be slower (it's clutch will go faster)... From a dig racing safely on both cars without ripping the tranny and clutch to pieces, they're actually about equal untill high 2nd low 3rd gear (trust me, I've been on 4-5 S2k drives) Now from a roll, the Evo will stomp anything but a superchared S2000. And don't start pissing about traction, cuz 340 whp barely loses traction in 1st when it hits Vtec, and after 1st, it pulls like a ****.

will always dwell in mind for a very long time.
Well my Evo is making 330whp and complementary tq. It would absolutely DESTROY my S2k in a contest of straight-line speed. My S2k lost badly to my little brothers Cobb stg.2 WRX. My Evo walks his car so hard its like he isn't even racing, probably has to do w/ the fact that I have about 100whp on him.

Lets just have
and be friends....wait are u old enough?

Take your own advice slick. I told you my Evo was faster and you spout off with a smart *** comment like "sorry, but I ran out of trophies to hand out." What part of my post did I say how many cars I have killed???? Bragging about how fast my car is?!?!! You do realize that the S2k is EASILY beatable car, if I wanted to brag, I would brag about pulling my friends 03 Cobra, not my S2k. In your response to my first post in this thread, you said this "Agreed for the most part, except the part of the 100000 times faster", I then responded to your post telling you WHY my car was 1000000 times faster, there was no bragging. However, then you had to go an act like a 3yr and be Mr. Smartass. BTW, this is a forum, but that DOES NOT EXCUSE you from the basic decency you should demonstrate to someone. Its attitudes like yours that make forums pure crap, because you will say bs on forums that you would NEVER say in person. Your STILL talking to people, just because they aren't in front of you doesn't mean you should throw your manners out of the window. For the record, I am 22, and yes, I bought my S2k and my Evo myself. Later Grandpa

Why do you feel u need to explain urself? Sorry, but when ppl start to boast or
show off I tend to be a smart mouth. Can't help it.
I feel the need to explain myself because you are wrong. Bragging never even entered into my train of thought, I was purely explaining my case and you go off on this tangent accusing me of something that was completely not the case. Sorry you took my post that, but its intentions were nothing of the sort.
