Drive both the cars you're thinking about buying. S2000's are very very fun, but I wouldn't have given it the time of day before I drove it.

even though we're comparing a coupe to a sedan, i'd go with the is300. To me, the s2000 is a lot like a miata. I can't imagine that with a small wheelbase like that they ride very well on the highway, but i haven't driven one either and a lot of people say you have to drive them to appreciate them.

Plus, I like Lexus a lot, and IMO they will hold their resale value better. Plus, having a sedan comes in handy a lot, whether its moving in and out of a dorm or fitting 3 extra chicks in the car. I dunno, i like s2000's, but for me, the seats are too narrow to drive as an everyday car. If this is your primary car, get the is300, if its going to be your toy, get the s2k.

Or, get the is430... anyone seen that? A 300hp gs430 motor in the is300... damn nice.
