i’ve driven 350z’s and they have felt doggish. I’ve driven s2k’s and they were pretty fun. For fun factor, I’d take an s2000.

However, there is one area of expertise i can offer you.

You’re never going to get a loan for an 00-01 s2000. You are going to have a much easier time getting a loan for an 03 350z. Not to mention, by the time you buy the s2000, the car is going to be going on ten years old. No thanks.

The honda, its a precise instrument:sword:, just put 4.4 gears in the diff so you don’t have to rely on its puny torque output

I would take the 350. Make a nicer daily. Less road noise. more interior room. yada.  
Mind you, the s2000 isn’t bad for a daily. I don’t know what everyone is carrying about.  
Can be daily driven below 4000 rpms.

I’ve got a 20 year old friend with less than awesome credit that got a decent loan for an 02 s2k. He paid 12k.

Yea i dont know why Beck said that. I just took a loan for almost 30k on an 01 vehicle. No problem and very low interest rate.

But Vipers really do suck. The 350z and S2000 are actually decent cars.

Since that is now clarified, I can give my opinion.  
I have spent multiple hours behind the wheel of both cars. I like the S2000 a bit more. It felt more like a true sports car. The 350z felt a little heavy and less nimble.

See what happened was I walked in and made it rain. Then this lady unbuttoned her blouse and said. “oh hai you must be super ballin please have our money on the cheap!.” I then smacked a ho and rolled out with 30 gsssssss Boeing Employee Credit Union. Open to alllllllll residents of Washington state. You do need sweet credit though for their really good rates.
