Talk me into trading my S2k for an EVO
Hey,
I had an 03 S2000, eventually sold it due to space and purchased a 03EVO. Years later i have the chance to buy another car, and yet, most people on here tells you to "own the best of both worlds". Guess what? I bought another EVO, its a 2006 RS. That is the best of both worlds right there. haha, just my .02c.

haha thats one way of looking at it. Im not too interested in owning them both. Id rather just get an evo and have a 240sx or miata toy.

I went from a 2006 s2006 to a 2006 Evo IX for space reasons too. The s2000 handled awesome but the Evo had practicality plus great acceleration. To me, the s2000 is better as a second car. Oh, and the Evo won me over so much that I made the leap to the X too! Good luck!

Not necessarily. Maybe you're right about AMS, but that doesn't discount other tuners' findings, when comparing their own Evo and STI products.
From Vishnu Tuning:
Stage Sub-Zero (reprogrammed ECU)
Evo IX - claims ~380 hp, costs $499
STI - claims ~340 hp, costs $749
Stage One (reprogrammed ECU, downpipe, exhaust)
Evo IX - claims ~400 hp, costs $1750
STI - claims ~370 hp, costs $1915
I would find more, but I just wanted to point out the examples that were in my head. Obviously Vishnu's products aren't the end-all determination of which car is more responsive, but this is just what I was basing my opinion off of, but I'm sure you also have examples. But again, there's not really a huge debate.

Man i had a VIII Now i have a S2k CR. I want a evo 9 now the CR is fun but not a good moding car its staying stock and the CR has no room in it. Besides that i love it. I want to keep it and later down the road get a evo as a DD
The CR is a S2000 that is on topic if u were talking to me not sure. I had a Evo VIII and was saying that i think both the evo and the S2000 are great cars but both are different animals. Not sure if u were talking to me about staying on topic if so i was the CR is a specail model S2000 i thought every one new that though
