Debating...fit or s2k..
 
I love my fit but I think I'd like an s2000 more. Haven't had her for a year yet either. These things get pretty good resale value?

Here comes the jaded seen this thread or one like it a million times post....

Get the s2000 if you want it if not then don't get it. I don't think this really is a question that you should ask online people. Rather you should think this through yourself it is your money your credit not ours..... Personally if it were up to me if you wanted to get a sports car I wouldn't go with the s2000 would rather spend the $20000-$35000 on something much nicer or faster.


As far as the resale value I think 07's used can go for between 12000-14000 if you can find a buyer. Lots of people have tried to sell their fit on the forum but I have yet to see one have luck.

Jason is letting go of his 08 BBP too cause hes getting an S2K.

all i know is that aftermarket parts for the fit are cheaper than an s2000. to hell with an s2000, find a nsx. but in the end to each his own.

trill 09-29-2008 12:58 AM

yeah. it all really matters on what you like. personally i would just drop a k20/k24 hybrid with a supercharger to give you crazy speed in a car no one expects to be fast. it would be cheaper than an s2000.

actually no it wouldn't be cheaper. You could by the brand new s2k cheaper and have a faster car with better handling. UNLESS you were doing all the k20 swap work youself. in that case yes it would be cheaper

I've been pricing with some shops lately thats why i know. =D

i say go forced induction on the Fit... and a nice suspention set up..... every one knows what a s2k will do... surprise ppl with a killer Fit!

Pepperinyoureye 09-29-2008 05:12 AM

if you drive ALOT dont get the S2000,I put 30k on mine in 11months and the value dropped real bad,hense why I now drive a Fit.

Not A Daily Driver Is Putting It Politely

I owned one for about a year, belonged to the northeast S2K club etc. It is truly the most uncomfortable and user unfriendly car I ever owned. The only way to get ANY power is to keep RPM's up ALL THE TIME. If you drop RPM's the car is a total dog. The interior is very sparse and you feel EVERYTHING. Trying to get out of the car is almost impossible. FUN CAR for a day or two but as a primary driver it is probably one of the worst choices one could make. If you have a daily driver and want a "toy" and your 18-25 then it might be for you.

you're debating whether to have steak or a cake? it's not even in the
same genre. keep your Fit unless you have another dd you can use for
your S2K. those cars are fun to drive, but you're kidding yourself if you
think they are pratical for daily use. :wavey:

rawrItsJello 09-29-2008 12:52 PM

lol if youre debating whether to have a fit or s2k?

why not BOTH!? muahahahaha

08fithappy 09-29-2008 01:09 PM

i was there too. I wanted to trade the fit in for a S2000 or a EVO. But u just can't get enough for these fits. And they are great DD. So i am keeping mine and saving for a couple of years to get a S2000, or evo not sure which yet. They were trying to give me 13,000 for the Fit. So if u have time u could just save for a couple of years and than have the fit for a DD and the S2000 for a weekend warrior.

David R 10-01-2008 12:33 AM

Modding a fit in place of an s2k is kinda lame. Not really the same league.

kenchan 10-01-2008 12:08 PM

well some folks aren't rich like you DavidR.

ddess 10-05-2008 12:11 AM

This is funny. I have an S2k and am thinking of picking up a used Fit as a
DD. I love the S2k and they are way different animals. If you want a top down car that corners well its a blast. If you want to race everyone around you, you will lose. Track car, its hard to beat. Many early models can be had for 12-16k with reasonably low mileage.

I guess its all up to you and what you want.

9k_RPM 10-05-2008 02:32 AM

After having an '03 S2000 daily driver for two and a half years now... let me simply put it this way.... I'm sick of it and I'm trading it in for a Fit. :rotfl:


Honestly, as a daily driver it will eventually drive you mad. Stick with the fit. Or hell I'll trade ya. Want a 96k mile S2k?
