Dan_Turism0 if i was to get a EP3 mate i'd try and get a import one, they are a lot lighter and come with more power too Smile, have you thought about getting a DC5?

Would Love a DC5 mate but aint got a spare 7 grand. Type R is Looking more and more tempting. What ever i get its getting supercharged either way. Just i do love Rear wheel drive. Mind you have a hot hatch will make me feel 18 again. Gonna Test drive a S2000 on Sat Hopefully and one of the boys here at work has a Ep3 and siad i can take it for a spin so we will have to see.

toxo I like revving the nuts off an engine when that's what I'm in the mood for. When I'm pootling around somewhere, or in slow moving traffic etc I like my car to actually be able to pull itself along without a lot of effort. "Rev it a bit" is the understatement of the year lol

Ok then, rev it a lot! But I actually quite liked that it felt a lot more tame around town!

But opinions were asked for, and in my mind there would be no question: a RWD 2 seat drop top sports car with a mental engine, or a FWD hatchback with a lesser version of the same engine?

I can see that with a Z3, a TF or an MX5, but somehow an S2k is far from it. Something about a Civic seems a bit granny to me. I know it's a good car, and a fast one, but somehow a Civic still says granny!

Each to his own though, of course. My opinion is not better than yours, only different!

Nope, but notice I said 'looks' not drives Smile

I'm sure they are great to drive, and to mod. Otherwise they wouldn't have such a big following. But I'm not a fan of the looks.
