I'm starting to hate this "Craigslist Good Buys". But I can't help to check it daily, so many wants here. |
I just remember this very long detailed review years back on s2ki forum from a guy who moved on from s2k. He bought Boxster S, loved it. Then bought Z4M, hated it and got back into Boxster S again. Can't remember why exactly but it had some good points. S2k is just a dedicated track car. For city driving, it can get somewhat tiring due to lack of power. If I could afford a car just as a weekend warrior to take it for spirited driving or tracking, it's hard to beat s2k. Just stay above 6k rpm and it's truly a joy to drive. I haven't driven a single car that shifts as smoothly as s2k does. |

But the fact that it has a big front mount on the stock fuel system and stock turbo makes me leery. The vf39 is just too small to fill a cavernous fmic, and the car is probably not a lot of fun to drive. To make it right you're going to need to drop a grand on the fuel system including proper rails, and put a proper turbo on the car. Even a TD06 will run you a grand. Subarus are not easy to build if you want a reliable 300whp. |

Are the 04-07s more desirable/fetch more than the 08-10? Seems like they are going for the same price. |

I feel like that gsr was the one that had a damaged front and now has the regamasters removed. I highly doubt they did anything to repair the front clip Edit: I'm 99.5% sure it's the same one |

Having worked at BMW, I like the Z4Ms. I really liked them when they hit bottom 30k. You can feel the power difference for sure, but I felt the weight difference more. |

The blue STI with black Enkei is very rusty underneath. Friend tried to buy it about 2 years ago. |

Overall I would say depending on your lifestyle, both are amazing cars, both are rare. What I mean by lifestyle would be if you could afford to have 2 cars and have the space for it, I would choose a professional or boring daily driver (3series, accord or whatever) and have the s2000 as the weekend warrior. But if you could only choose 1, it would be the Z4 M. The Z4 M is like the more "mature" s2000, it kind of portrays a bachelor lifestyle, a little more refined and premium, but still can have fun and look sophisticated for a night out or a sunday morning run through sea to sky. An s2000 is like when you're out go-karting in your 30s with friends, and you dont care about anything but having fun |
