Puck Redline
Should I trade in my baby??? (s2000)?
I am the very proud owner of a Honda s2000. It is completely stock with the exception of a 6 puck clutch, and it is simply the most amazing car i have ever owned. If you own one, you know what i'm talking about... If you have never driven one, you can't possibly understand what i'm talking about so don't bother making some stupid remark. It performs amazingly and I smoke just about anything that pulls up next to me (gotta love that 9,000 rpm redline!!!!) The problem is, I have 3 years of college left and I commute about 60 miles everyday. My car already has 102,000 miles on it. I just found a 2003 Mustang GT with only 8,000 miles, and they are asking $17,900!!! I know that the mustang wont preform as well as my s2000 and I will prob be disappointed with it unless I get some performance mods. What should I do?!?! I LOVE my car, but I'm not sure it will last me through college. NOTHING can compare to revving an s2000 up to 9,000 rpm. Serious comments only please!
I can see your dilema... I haven't driven a s2000, but I have read some articles that impressed me.
With Honda's history of longevity, I would personally keep the Honda. While you are getting a Mustang that is almost new (by mileage), and it may have a certain amount of spunk and class, it's not as unique as the Honda.
I remember in the late '60's, it was a joke... "Mustangs are like a**holes... everybody has one". Compared to your s2000, this is a fact. How often do you see another s2000 when you are cruising back and forth to school? If you do see one, you wave and they wave back and you share the uniqueness of your cars. Can't say that about every Mustang owner... and besides.. you would wear your arm out with limited replys back.
Granted, your s2000 will probably be worn out when you graduate, but it will also be paid for... more money for all those student loans you have accumulated. Once you get settled in your new career, and you still want a Mustang, you can go get you a Shelby and have the resourses to pay for it. :-}
Don't get me wrong... I am a Ford person from the word go... Own two of them now... a 56 F100 pickup and a 97 Expedition with 131000 miles on it. It all goes back to the old addage... "if it isn't broken, don't fix it!!!"
Enjoy the Honda and then buy what you want when you graduate... Besides... HP to Weight... you will be sorely disapointed with the Mustang.
Good luck in your educational endevours...
