But it is worth paying just under 2k for the size of the smile i'll have on my face when I am driving it

How much are the S2000's new?

Seems like a good price.

Were you not tempted by anything else? Astra GSi Turbo etc?

£25k ish... why an Astra GSi, they r shite! (At least in comparison to ALL competitors)

Jason, PLEASE be careful with 1st gear, I nearly crashed 4 times on my first drive whilst in 1st coz its a bit of a monster

Yes and no, I like the S2000 much more than anything else Honda have produced recently.

But I would rather buy a Astra GSi, save me a few ££££ and spend the left over on some subtle mods for the Astra.

You wouldn't get much change out of £16k for an astra gsi, plus they are totally different cars, ones rwd 9k rpm n/a sports car, and well one isn't

For fucks sake, not gettin into it, accept it Astra GSi's are SHITE and Civics are the best hot hatch u can buy FACT...

And please care 2 explain how a shite handling 192bhp TURBO is better than a 200bhp N/A which handles very well

An why do all critics always label the type-r the best hot hatch for years and yet the GSi never eben gets a look in

Have you ever raced a GSi? I doubt you have.

The handling is the same as the CTR, the CTR gets all twitchy on bumpy roads.

I would rather a Vauxhall Turbo with torque than some Jap crap that needs to be doing 7,000 rpm before it actually goes fast.

I have, I beat him quite easily, yiou don't need to do 7k to hav torque, it pulls from 2k easily, like most people who say the civic ios crap they need 2 drive one, an FYI the astra bloke was definitely tryin as he caught me up in traffic an looked very annoyed

people ned to accept that Civic are better than anything you can come up wuith for the same range
