Re:Test drove S2000 and 350Z yesterday
well my friend has a 350z and he let me drive it back to campus on friday after we saw the dawn of the dead. It is a little overated but it does have mad torque. I agree that the redline comes in way to early and the clutch feels weird compare to my civic. It seemslike it takes forever to make it touch the floor. But its a pretty neat car i would love to drive a s2k. They only thing about the new s2k is that its a 2.2 liter and has a little more torque.

Who cares about 1/4 mile times, nobody buying those cars are at the strip. They will both get u past any weenie economy car with ease... rwd being one of the main factors, just off the launch the cars are insane. Ive only driven the s2k, bad *** car, chassy is a lil snappy and it still feels like a honda, but its an awesome toy, Both cars are cool enough and fast enough, but the 350 doesnt do it for me either, i want a car thats just asking to be floored to get me moving 9k baby

the new 04 s2000, in addition to the added torque, hits the maximum at a lower rpm and with that also the redline.
I havent really test drove any but i was thinking of getting a 300z. I think I'll go with a mr2 TT next year tho.
wait a second.. s2k all the way!! it looks sexier than the fat *** 350z. and whats with the "350" when its not a real 350hp car.. (plans for a stock FI in the future anyone?)

call me dumb, but i'd prefer the infinity g35 sedan over the 350z anyday.. maybe its the 4 doors and lower insurance, i dont know.
the s2k is a 2.2 now and the rev limit is 800 revs lower. It reaches max hp 800 lower as well and the HP is the same at 240 (rated) but the tourqe is more. Overall, they made it easier for daily use.
