You would be nuts to say a minivan can replace a Ferrari, as a vehicle yes it can. But its serves a completely different purpose.

OBVIOUSLY the S2K is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy more fun then any 335 (coupe/cab/sedan) but it CANNOT take place of a 335 as far as a commuter vehicle or any sort of vehicle in which you will take more then 1.
he never said he could take the place of a 335 as a "commuter" car. he just said it can and has taken it's place one way or another, which you obviously agreed to on the fun factor part. it just depends on what you're looking for in a car.

a minivan to a ferrari?

Hey all to answer some questions..I paid $22,00 for the car..IMO it's a little overpriced but the car is flawless and has 7,000 miles on it. Mine is Silverstone/Black.


I really thought I would miss my 335 more than I am..don't get me wrong I love the 335 but I am having soooo much fun..I sort of forgot about the 3 already. And for my DD or winter beater I have a Honda Fit Sport (wifes car).

I miss my 2002 s2000 in the worst way. Next spring after I get a new house with a big garage I am so looking for another s2000.

Back twistie roads in third gear screaming at 8000 rpm is just an amazing expierence. The car still looks so sexy even though its been out for 8 years.

Quick update: I MISS MY 335 a lot!!!! love the S2k, but I really do miss that solid feel of the 3, the amazing power, stereo, comfort. I am having a lot of fun in the S2k though, especially in this nice weather. Winter/cold soon though FTL

Just wanted to say hi

My E92 arrives at the end of the month and I can't decide whether to sell my '02 Silver S2000 or keep it - not enough garage space for both. It is the only car I have ever LOVED. I've been the only owner for 70k miles. It is not as fast as a 335, but the noise and small size make it seem so.

Keep it. The feeling when you get rid of something and think..What did I do?????? That sucks...

If you love it and can make it work, keep it.

Well guys, I decided to put my S2000 for sale. After 2 months of not having my 335, I miss it way too much . I think I am going to sell the S2k and buy my 335 off lease. If I can't sell it by January, I will hold onto it until it does sell and then maybe lease an 09 335. We'll see..
