[QUOTE="KevinB120, post: 1653806, member: 8163"] Every WRX car we get traded in with mileage is LOADED with problems, I mean EVERY one. Modded ones with over 40k miles on them are practically falling appart. The s2000 is a decent car, but takes WAY too much work to enjoy, it has NO balls at low end making it friggin annoying to drive in regular traffic, and noisy as hell to drive spiritedly. On a track its great, on the street it sucks. The new models are supposed to have a vastly improved lower end torque curve, I have yet to drive one. If it is substantially better, it will be a much more enjoyable car. The chassis is fantastic. I've only ridden in the STi's a few times(driven a bunch of WRX's), fast as hell, but who knows the long term durability of them. I just think its too cheap overall at the core car, and way too much for the upgrades all said and done. It feels like a uber hopped up 12,000 car. The S2000 is die hard reliable, but a totally different beast, and very impractical. Talk about two totally different cars. Drive em both and see what you think. From a purity stance, I personally would take the S2000 if the new motor makes it the slightest bit less buzzy day to day. Again I havent driven the newest one yet, but that was all the car needed to make it one of the best roadsters ever. [/QUOTE]
