if you have the "mod itch" then go for the X but it looks like you got thr CR (Comfort room?)

Like i said above i really wanted a VIII or a 9 just could not find any close so it came down to a 10 or S2K. Well if it was not a CR i would have went with the 10 for sure. Really i just wanted to see if i was crazy for not geting into the 10 instead i like both cars the Cr just felt more rare and fast

Dont get me wrong but I think the CR is a waste of money when a normal S2000 is much less and you can make it better yourself with the money you will save. Like I said dont take it the wrong way my last two cars before the Evo was an AP1 and Ap2 S2000. I just think it is overpriced for what you get. Also it is much harder to make any power, simple boltons just dont do it.

Oh no i don't got it for 35k. Its only 2k more than the normal S2K. No mod itch after the VIII CR is staying stock for a while. Also i like the idea of a 2 seater due to in the VIII every one wanted to ride with me on a friday night saying my car was the best to pick up girls. My VIII was a lot faster than the S2K but this car feels really fast for no turbo all motor great tq down low and up high.

if you like it, then by all means, that is great. my opinion, after driving one, is that they are gutless even at 9000 rpms. still, it is a nice car and girls like hondas. good luck!

Obviously you haven't driven an AP2 or a CR

you got a good point about having a two seater though. It seems I drive alot more now when I go on lunch break at work. but when the CR first came out it seemed they were priced alot higher than the others. But then again I dont know how much room they had to go down on the price because I never looked into getting one. nice car anyway

They are two totally different cars.

I loved my S2k and thought is was a lot more fun to drive then the X, and unlike the X it doesn't do most of the driving for you and it will either make you a better driver or you will crash...LOL. It only seats 2 people, is a true sports car, is RWD, and is convertible.

When I got married My wife and her two boys loved the S, but if I was home with them I could not do anything as both of them are too small to ride in the S, So I traded in the S for a OB X and have zero regrets. Its faster (wether it feels like it or not) with a drop in filter and tune it will beat the S by multiple car lengths (and my S wasn't stock either when we ran). The technology it boasts also makes the EVO corner better than an S , specially with a less experienced driver. The X seats 4/5 people, is not convertible, has 4 doors, is boosted, and AWD.

The only things thats similiar is the trunk size...LOL

they are priced higher they go for 40k or over. But right now with the economy not to many buyers for these types of cars so i got it for 35k. When i first saw them i thought the same thing way over priced. Oh and yes when i first drove a S2k when i owned my VIII i thought it felt slow but the VIII was moded. Compare the 2 a s2k is fast for a all motor 4cyl pushes 237hp weighing in at 2855 pounds with top on and weighing 45 punds less with no top and its rwd. But with the suspension on it and the tires being so beefy u could not tell. Trust me this car will suprsie you its really quick in a straight away but its meant for a auto x event

Not to sure if the 10 corners better than the CR. faster in a straight away yes. And i like the feel of rwd. i love the 2 seater perfect for me and a girl. also love the no top thing perfect here in FL and with the Cr it has a hard top. I think the CR is pure sex on wheels

The regular AP1 and AP2 probably couldn't corner as fast as a X... But I bet a CR can, maybe differently, but just as fast.

take a AP1 or AP2, get coilovers and aligned...it'll take the CR easy. lol

i believe the CR only has different suspension and its a little lighter than the regular AP2.

IMO the CR is over priced for what you get...but there's only like 500 or something made right?
the CR should've came with some extra power as incentives to buy it

Yea only around 400 of each color but i believe they should have came with more Hp to. But like i said i am surprised at how fast this car is in a straight away stock.
